Cut the potato into fries. Submerge in a bowl of cold water with a handful of ice — this draws out excess starch so they crisp up better later. Leave to soak while you prep everything else.

Soaking the cut fries in ice water draws out surface starch, which is what makes them crisp up properly instead of turning soft and floppy in the air fryer. To caramelise shallots: cook low and slow, stirring occasionally, and add a splash of water if the pan looks dry — rushing it with high heat will just burn them instead of turning them sweet and golden.
