Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium-sized starchy potatoes (Russets recommended)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Paprika, to taste
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes if desired (skin-on for extra texture and nutrients). Slice evenly about 1/4 inch thick, and pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture for maximum crispiness.
  2. Season the Potatoes: Place potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss gently until slices are evenly coated.
  3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 to 5 minutes to ensure the potatoes start crisping immediately.
  4. Arrange and Air Fry: Lay the seasoned potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overcrowding. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through for even browning.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer the golden, crispy potatoes to a plate. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot for the perfect crunch.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline or sharp knife for uniform slices to ensure even cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to avoid soggy potatoes.
  • Always dry potato slices before seasoning to help spices stick and enhance crispiness.
  • Use only a light drizzle of oil to prevent greasiness.
  • Shake or flip the potatoes halfway through cooking for an even crisp.
  • Season immediately after cooking for some spices like salt to maintain texture.
