Ingredients
- 4 medium Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes diced into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Season: In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil. Add garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes.
- Cook: Place the seasoned potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crisping.
- Check: Ensure the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. If needed, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot as a side dish or breakfast addition.
Notes
- Potato Choice: Yukon Gold or Russets work best for their crispy texture and fluffy interior. Sweet potatoes can be used for a sweeter, caramelized flavor.
- Seasoning Variations: Experiment with chili powder for spice, or add Parmesan and lemon zest for a tangy twist.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer at 400°F for 3-5 minutes to restore crispiness.
