Equipment
- Air fryer
- Cutting board
- Sharp knife
- Mixing Bowl
- Measuring spoons
- Spatula or tongs
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes diced into small cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- Wash and scrub the potatoes well, then cut them into evenly sized bite-sized cubes.
- (Optional but recommended) Soak the diced potatoes in cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain and dry them thoroughly using a clean kitchen towel.
- In a mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding.
- Cook for 18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crisping.
- Once golden brown and crispy, remove and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- Cut potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate
- Always dry them well after soaking — moisture prevents crisping
- Don’t overcrowd the basket — give them space to crisp
- Shake halfway through cooking for even browning
- Serve immediately for the best texture
