Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 4 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
Seasonings
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal cooking temperature before adding the potatoes.
- Season the potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the thinly sliced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, making sure each slice is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
- Arrange in air fryer basket: Place the sliced potatoes in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. If necessary, cook in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure even crispiness.
- Air fry the potatoes: Cook the potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to promote even browning and crispiness. The potatoes should turn golden and crispy.
- Garnish and serve: Once cooked, optionally garnish the potatoes with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- Cut the potatoes uniformly thin for even cooking and crisp texture.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if needed to ensure the potatoes crisp up rather than steam.
- Adjust seasoning to taste, adding extra paprika for more smoky flavor or garlic powder for stronger aroma.
- Serve immediately for best crispness, as potatoes may soften if left to sit.
- Can be customized with additional spices like cayenne pepper or rosemary for variety.
