Step 1

Prepare Sweet Potatoes

Begin by washing and peeling the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips for the best fry-like texture.

In a bowl, combine the sweet potato strips with vegetable oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika for flavor. Toss well to coat evenly.

Next, sprinkle them with flour to create a light coating. This will help give them a crispy outside.

Place the seasoned sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket and choose the 'fries' setting for 25 minutes.

Step 2

Cook the Steaks

While the sweet potatoes are cooking, it's time to prepare the beef steaks. Start by rubbing them with vegetable oil and the minced garlic.

Season generously with salt and black pepper to enhance the flavor.

Once the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the air fryer; they should be tender with a crispy outer layer.

Now, insert the grill rack into the air fryer and place the seasoned beef steaks on the rack. Select the 'grill' setting and set the temperature to 200°C (392°F), and cook for 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, cook each steak for an additional 2-3 minutes on each side to achieve the desired doneness.

Step 3

Serve

Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from the air fryer.

Garnish each steak with a fresh rosemary sprig for added flavor and presentation.

Serve the juicy steaks alongside the sweet potato fries for a delightful meal that’s quick and delicious. Enjoy!

Faq

  • What should I do if my sweet potato fries get soggy?

    Make sure to cut them evenly and dry them well before adding oil and seasoning. A light dusting of flour also helps with crispiness!

  • How can I ensure my steaks are cooked to the right temperature?

    A meat thermometer is your best friend! For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).

  • Can I switch the types of meat in this recipe?

    Absolutely! You can use chicken, pork, or even fish—just adjust the cooking time according to the type of meat.

  • How do I keep my steaks juicy?

    Let your steaks rest after cooking for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute!

  • Is it okay to prepare the sweet potatoes ahead of time?

    Yes, you can cut and season your sweet potatoes a few hours in advance, storing them in the refrigerator until you're ready to air fry them.

  • What oil is best for air frying?

    Vegetable oil is great, but olive oil or avocado oil works well too. These oils have high smoke points and add delicious flavor!
