Directions
Rinse fries well and drain off water. Pat dry a bit. They do not have to be completely dry, you just don't want them dripping wet.
Blend your desired spices in a bowl and set aside.
Set Air Fryer to 390 and preheat. You can also bake or fry your french fries or use frozen. It's your Poutine!!!
Spray fries with a bit of oil of your choice if air frying. Top with your seasoning blend and toss to coat.
Pour fries in your preheated air fryer and cook for 10 mins. Take out and shake basket. Do a quick spritz of oil again and back in air fryer for 10 more mins.
