Air-Fryer Rutabaga Fries with Chipotle-Lime Mayo

When considering fries, rutabaga may not come to mind, but after tasting Air Fryer Rutabaga Fries, you'll crave them repeatedly. 

Rutabaga is a adaptable root vegetable featuring a light yellow, sweet-flavored interior. It's full of nutrients and has a long shelf life. 

In England, Australia, and New Zealand, rutabagas are referred to as swedes. They are referred to as Swedish turnips, neeps, yellow turnips, and turnips based on the region in the world. 

Rutabaga or Turnip; How Do They Compare? 

As I previously stated, rutabagas are frequently referred to as turnips, particularly in some nations (such as Canada). Nevertheless, the two vegetables differ from one another. They are both part of the brassica family, which additionally includes cabbage, brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. 

Rutabagas are bigger and sweeter than turnips, featuring yellow flesh, whereas turnips have white flesh. The two vegetables can typically be substituted for one another in recipes.

Component Observations 

Rutabaga. Select rutabagas that are dense for their size and are free of any soft areas. 

Use an oil that has a high smoke point. I enjoy avocado oil, but other great options include peanut oil, sunflower oil, or regular olive oil (not extra virgin). 

I'm utilizing Cajun Seasoning in this instance, but you can opt for Italian seasoning, Garam Masala, Old Bay, or just plain salt and pepper. 

Guidelines 

Begin by cutting the rutabaga into fry shapes. Here’s the method for peeling and cutting this vegetable: 
Employ a sharp knife to cut off the ends of the root and stem, then cut the rutabaga in half lengthwise. 
Positioned with cut sides facing down, slice each half into ½" pieces. 
Peel each slice with a paring knife. (simpler than a potato peeler) 
Place the pieces flat and cut them into ½" sticks of rutabaga. 
Then, in a large bowl, combine the rutabaga fries with oil and seasoning. 
Place the fries in the basket of the air fryer. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket often. 




Cooking Advice 

Reduced surface area leads to optimal crispness. Slice the rutabaga into fairly thin, uniformly sized pieces. The fries ought to be approximately ½ inch. 

Depending on the capacity of your air fryer, you will likely need to prepare the fries in two separate batches. Filling the basket too much will lead to mushy fries. 

Shake the air fryer basket multiple times throughout the cooking process to promote uniform cooking. 

Rutabaga fries are most enjoyable when eaten right away. If you have any leftovers, you can place them in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat them in the air fryer at 400° for 5-10 minutes. They may not be as crunchy when warmed up again, but will still be delicious! 

Frequently asked questions 

Do rutabaga fries have the same flavor as classic French fries? 

No, rutabaga has its own unique, yet equally tasty flavor. Swedes resemble a mix of a turnip and a cabbage, reflecting that in their taste. They can similarly be characterized as creamy, sugary, and mildly bitter in taste. 

Are these fries suitable for a Keto diet? 

Indeed, rutabaga is low in carbohydrates and suitable for keto, paleo, and whole 30 diets. Containing only 7 grams of net carbs per 100, they serve as an excellent substitute for potatoes. I don't own an air fryer. 

Is it possible to bake these in the oven? 

If you don’t own an air fryer, you may want to think about purchasing one! I possess this one and utilize it regularly. Nonetheless, in the interim, indeed, you can prepare them in the oven. 

To make baked rutabaga fries, first preheat the oven to 400°. Arrange the seasoned fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Cook for 30 minutes, or until the fries are tender yet crunchy. (Turn midway). 

Ways to Serve Rutabaga fries made in an air fryer pair well with any meals you typically enjoy with classic French fries. 

Similar to standard fries, they pair wonderfully with burgers, such as these Chipotle BLT Cheeseburgers, and steaks: Air Fryer Flank Steaks are ideal. They work well with chicken too, particularly grilled like in these Grilled Jerk Chicken Drumsticks, and even fish, (See Air Fryer Salmon). 
And ribs, naturally, Air Fryer Country Style Ribs. Certainly, you can absolutely enjoy these fries on their own, but remember to include the ketchup! Alternatively, explore a different option for dipping, such as this Moroccan Hot Sauce or a Roasted Red Pepper Dip
