Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, washed and diced into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • fresh chopped parsley for topping (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for 5 minutes. Wash and dry the potatoes really well.
  2. While the air fryer is preheating, dice the potatoes into 1/2 inch pieces.
  3. Place the potatoes in a large bowl then add the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat the potatoes really well in the seasoning.
  4. Transfer it to the air fryer basket in an even layer. Do your best to not overcrowd the basket or they won't get as crispy. You may need to work in batches. Air fry for 20 minutes, pausing to toss and coat 2-3 times. The potatoes should be fork-tender and starting to brown around the edges.
  5. If your air fryer has an air broil function, you can broil them for 2-3 minutes to get the edges extra crispy at the end, shaking as needed to stir. If not, turn the heat up to 450°F and broil them that way.

Notes

- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket . Cooking in batches ensures even crisping and prevents steaming.
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika for a smoky kick. - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes to regain crispiness.
