  • Author: ushinzomr
  • Total Time: 30
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds of baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Place the seasoned potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding for even cooking.
  4. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Once cooked, remove the potatoes and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak the potatoes in water for 30 minutes before seasoning to remove excess starch.
  • Ensure the potatoes are dry before tossing them with oil and seasonings.
  • You can experiment with different seasonings like Italian herbs, chili powder, or Parmesan cheese for variety.
