Here’s a quick and easy recipe for making sliced potatoes in the air fryer:
Ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes (russet, Yukon gold, or red potatoes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: fresh herbs (such as rosemary or thyme) for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly.
- Slice the potatoes into even slices, about 1/4 inch thick. You can use a mandoline slicer for uniform thickness.
- Season the Potatoes:
- In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
- Arrange the Potatoes:
- Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding, which helps achieve even crispiness.
- Cook the Potatoes:
- Cook the potato slices for 10-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The exact time may vary depending on the thickness of the slices and the type of air fryer. The potatoes are done when they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve:
- Remove the potato slices from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving dish.
- Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
Tips:
- For an extra crispy texture, soak the potato slices in cold water for about 30 minutes before seasoning and cooking. This helps to remove excess starch.
- Experiment with different seasonings such as onion powder, chili powder, or Italian seasoning to suit your taste.
- If you want to add cheese, sprinkle some grated Parmesan or your favorite cheese over the potato slices during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
Enjoy your crispy and delicious air-fried sliced potatoes!
