Air Fryer Potatoes

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb (700 g) potatoes (Yukon Gold, Russet, or baby potatoes)
• 1–2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• Optional: fresh parsley, grated Parmesan, or rosemary

Instructions

1. Prep the potatoes
   • Cut into 1-inch cubes.
   • Soak in cold water for 20–30 minutes (optional, but helps make them crispier).
   • Drain and dry thoroughly.
2. Season
   • Toss potatoes with oil and seasonings until evenly coated.
3. Air fry
   • Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C) if your model requires it.
   • Place potatoes in a single layer in the basket.
   • Cook for 18–22 minutes, shaking the basket every 5–7 minutes.
4. Serve
   • Potatoes are done when golden brown and crispy outside, tender inside.
   • Garnish with parsley, Parmesan, or herbs if desired.

Tips for Extra Crispy Potatoes

• Don’t overcrowd the basket.
• Dry potatoes thoroughly after washing or soaking.
• Use Russet potatoes for maximum crispiness.
• Add a little extra cooking time if needed for darker browning.

For baby potatoes: Halve them and cook at 400°F (200°C) for about 15–18 minutes.
