AIR FRYER SLICED POTATOES: The Crispy, Quick & Healthy Side Dish!

Your Foolproof Method to Potato Perfection

Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
Scrub potatoes clean (peel if desired) and slice into ¼-inch thick rounds. For even cooking, try to keep slices uniform!

Step 2: Season Generously
In a large bowl, toss potato slices with oil and all  seasonings until every slice is evenly coated.

Step 3: Air Fry to Crispy Glory

• Arrange slices in a single layer in air  fryer basket

• Air fry at 380°F (190°C) for 12-16 minutes

• Flip halfway through cooking time

• Done when golden brown and crispy at the edges

Step 4: Serve Immediately

• • Sprinkle with fresh herbs or Parmesan

• Serve hot for the best texture!

Chef’s Tips for the Best Results

• SOAK FOR EXTRA CRISPNESS: Soak sliced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before  seasoning to remove excess starch

• DON’T CROWD THE BASKET: Cook in batches if needed for maximum crispiness

• SHAKE, DON’T FLIP: Some air fryers work better with a good shake instead of individual flipping

• TEST FOR DONENESS: Potatoes should be fork-tender and edges should be browned

Delicious Flavor Variations

Garlic Parmesan:

• Toss with minced fresh garlic before air frying

• Sprinkle with grated Parmesan after cooking

Spicy Cajun:

• Replace seasonings with 2 tsp Cajun seasoning blend
