Want crispy potatoes but don’t want to deal with lots of oil and a messy stovetop? Making these crispy air fryer potatoes in the air fryer leaves a little mess, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t big on flavor. I promise you, these are the best air fryer potatoes you’ve ever had.
I love air fryer recipes. Is there anything that the air fryer can’t do? I use it to make everything from sandwiches to snacks, so this appliance gets a workout here in my kitchen. So for this Mitten Movie Night, I am going to show how you can make these crispy potatoes that you can eat on their own with a cold beer or how to add them to other delicious recipes.
Ingredients
3 medium russet potatoes cleaned then sliced thinly
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon thyme leaf
Instructions
Clean the potatoes. Slice them thinly using a knife or vegetable slicer.
3 medium russet potatoes
In a bowl, add cool water and place the sliced potatoes into it. Let them sit in the water for 30 minutes.
Drain the water then,using a paper towel, dry off the potatoes.
To the uncooked potatoes, add olive oil and seasonings. Stir to coat the potatoes evenly.
1 teaspoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, 1/8 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes, 1/4 teaspoon thyme leaf
Place the potatoes into the basket of the air fryer. Set the air fryer to 380 degrees and set for 25 minutes. Push ‘start’.
Check the potatoes after 10 minutes and using a small tongs, flip the potatoes around. Slide the basket back in then perform the same action every 5 minutes for another 15 minutes.
Remove from the air fryer and serve as desired. Enjoy!
Notes
Tips for making this recipe:
If you don’t have time to soak the potatoes, you may end up having to add additional minutes to the cooking time to get them browned correctly.
Make sure that you flip the potatoes every 5 minutes so that they cook evenly.
To store: add to a covered container and refrigerate. To reheat add back to the air fryer and cook for 5 minutes.
