Method
Preheat the air fryer to 355°F.
Pat the cut potatoes thoroughly dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, then transfer them to a large bowl.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the potatoes and toss thoroughly until each piece is lightly and evenly coated.
Add the olive oil, garlic‑and‑herb seasoning, and a small pinch of kosher salt; toss again until the potatoes are evenly coated. If the seasoning blend already contains salt, season lightly.
Arrange the potatoes in the air‑fryer basket in an even layer, avoiding overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
Air‑fry for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the basket or turning the fries every 5 to 7 minutes, until deeply golden and crisp. Serve immediately.
