Here’s a simple and delicious way to make air-fried baby potatoes — crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with minimal oil.
🥔 Air-Fried Baby Potatoes
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes, halved if large
- 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, or parsley) for garnish
Instructions
- Prep Potatoes
- Wash and dry baby potatoes.
- Cut larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
- Season
- Toss potatoes in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Make sure all pieces are coated evenly.
- Air-Fry
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Place potatoes in the basket in a single layer (avoid overcrowding).
- Cook 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
- Cook an additional 3–5 minutes if you want extra crispiness.
- Garnish & Serve
- Sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.
- Optional: drizzle a little lemon juice or Parmesan for extra flavor.
🍽️ Serving Ideas
- Side for roasted chicken, steak, or fish
- Toss with a little aioli or ketchup for dipping
- Add to salads or grain bowls for texture
If you want, I can also give you a spicy garlic parmesan version that’s extra crispy and packed with flavor.
