Roast potatoes are a classic side dish that elevates any meal, and when cooked in an air fryer, they achieve a level of crispy perfection that’s hard to beat. The air fryer not only ensures a golden exterior but also makes the process quicker and healthier by using less oil. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of creating the ultimate air fryer roast potatoes.
Ingredients:
4 large russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Preheating ensures that the potatoes start cooking immediately and helps achieve that coveted crispy texture.
Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on for added flavor and texture. Cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks, ensuring they are all similar in size for even cooking.
Parboil the Potatoes: Place the potato chunks in a large pot of boiling water and let them parboil for about 5 minutes. This initial boiling softens the outer layer of the potatoes, allowing the air fryer to crisp them up beautifully.
