For extra crispy fries, consider lightly coating the celery root sticks in a mixture of cornstarch or arrowroot powder before air frying. Feel free to adjust the amount of horseradish in the vegan mayo to suit your spice preference. Experiment with other seasonings for the fries, such as garlic powder, smoked paprika, or dried herbs. If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake these fries in a preheated oven at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for approximately 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
20 mins
Submerge the celery root sticks in a bowl with water and lime juice. Allow them to soak for 20 minutes. This step helps to tenderize the fries and prevent them from drying out during air frying. (Time: 20 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). A preheated air fryer ensures even cooking and optimal crispness. (Time: 5 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Prepare the spicy vegan mayo. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, brown mustard, and horseradish powder. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. The flavors will meld beautifully as it chills. (Time: 5 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
Drain the celery root sticks thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels. Return them to the bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to ensure even coating. (Time: 5 minutes)

Arrange the celery root fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding. Cook for approximately 10 minutes, then shake the basket to redistribute the fries. Continue cooking for another 8 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy, checking for doneness halfway through. (Time: 18 minutes)
