This easy, customizable recipe delivers all the satisfaction of classic French fries with none of the carbs, making it a must-try for anyone on a ketogenic diet.
Peel the rutabagas and cut them into even-sized strips about 1/4 inch thick, resembling the shape of traditional fries.
In a large bowl, combine the avocado oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the rutabaga strips to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat the air fryer to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Place the seasoned rutabaga strips in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overlap for even cooking. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the rutabaga fries for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crispiness.
Check for doneness and desired crispiness. Air fry a few more minutes if necessary.
Remove the fries from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired before serving.
