Wash rutabaga and then peel the outside of the rutabaga, making sure you cut deep enough to remove the wax coating, the skin, and the green layer underneath the skin portion. Round off the rutabaga with a sharp chef’s knife to turn it into a block. Save the scraps for something else or julienne them and set them aside to cook apart from the nicer cut fries later on.
Step 2
Slice the rutabaga into ¼” planks, this sets up the julienne so they will all be nice and even.
Step 3
Slice each plank into ¼” sections, now they are julienned pieces that are about 3 ½” x ¼” x ¼” each.
Step 4
Place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 5
Add all the seasonings and oil and give it a very good toss until it is all coated well.
Step 6
Place the fries in the bottom of an air fryer basket in a single layer.
Step 7
Cook at 375 F for 15 minutes. Repeat 2 more times with the remaining fries.
