Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Potatoes Russet or Yukon Gold, washed and sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
  • 1.5 tbsp Olive Oil extra virgin or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp Salt Kosher or sea salt
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika sweet or smoked
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper freshly ground
Optional

Equipment

  • Air Fryer,
  • large mixing bowl,
  • kitchen towel,

Method
 

  1. Wash the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for nutrients and texture, or peel if preferred. Slice into uniform rounds about 1/4 inch thick.
  2. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain well and pat dry with a kitchen towel to ensure crispiness.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil until lightly coated. In a small bowl, mix salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Sprinkle over potatoes and toss to coat evenly.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  5. Arrange the seasoned slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  6. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes. Shake the basket vigorously at the 7-minute mark for even cooking.
  7. Check if potatoes are golden brown with crispy edges. If needed, cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
  8. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with optional fresh parsley or smoked sea salt if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3-5 minutes to regain crispiness. Avoid microwaving as it makes them rubbery. For variations, try adding Parmesan cheese and rosemary or make sweet potato version by swapping potatoes and seasonings.
