Ingredients:
- 1 kg medium potatoes – Choose firm, waxy potatoes for the best texture.
- ¼ teaspoon oregano – Adds a fragrant, earthy flavor.
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder – Infuses a savory garlic kick.
- ½ teaspoon onion powder – Enhances the overall umami taste.
- ½ teaspoon paprika – Provides a subtle smoky flavor and vibrant color.
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes – Optional, for a hint of heat.
- 1 tablespoon oil – Helps achieve that perfect crispiness.
- Salt to taste – Adjust according to your preference.
Preparation:
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. You can leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients. Slice the potatoes into equal-sized pieces, about ¼ inch thick. For extra crispiness, soak them in cold water for 15-30 minutes (optional). Pat them dry again before seasoning.
- Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the sliced potatoes with oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili flakes, salt, and oil. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the spices.
- Air Fry to Perfection: Preheat your air fryer to 200°C/400°F for 2 minutes. Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap. Cook at 180°C/360°F for 20 minutes. Shake the basket or flip the potatoes halfway through (after 10 minutes) to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer. Serve immediately as a side dish or snack. Pair them with your favorite dip or enjoy them on their own!
These Crispy Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes are a versatile and satisfying dish that’s perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re meal-prepping or hosting a gathering, this recipe is sure to be a hit. Enjoy!
