🥔 Crispy Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes

“Golden, Crunchy, and Addictively Good with Just a Few Ingredients”

✅ Ingredients:

2–3 medium potatoes (Yukon Gold, Russet, or red potatoes work well)

1½ tablespoons olive oil

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon paprika (optional, for flavor and a touch of color)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Optional toppings:

Grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh chopped parsley or chives

Dipping sauces (ketchup, ranch, garlic aioli, sour cream)

🔪 Instructions:

1. Prep the Potatoes:

Wash and scrub potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them, but the skin gets wonderfully crispy when left on.

Slice them into thin, even rounds about ⅛–¼ inch thick. A mandoline slicer works great for uniform slices.

2. Optional – Soak for Extra Crispiness:

Place the slices in a bowl of cold water and soak for 15–30 minutes to help remove excess starch.

Drain and pat the slices completely dry with a clean towel or paper towels. This step helps them crisp up in the air fryer.

3. Season the Slices:

In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper.

Make sure each slice is well-coated.

4. Air Fry:

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.

Lay the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping too much; cook in batches if necessary.

Air fry for 12–16 minutes, flipping halfway through. Thinner slices will cook faster. They’re done when golden brown and crispy at the edges.

5. Serve:

Remove and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, or more salt to taste while still hot.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauces like spicy mayo, ketchup, ranch, or sour cream.

🔁 Tips & Variations:

For extra crispiness: Don’t skip the soaking and drying step.

Add spice: Try a pinch of cayenne or chili powder for heat.

Cheesy version: Toss with grated cheddar or Parmesan in the last 2 minutes of air frying.
