- Preheating the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (about 200°C). This step might vary depending on your air fryer model, so adjust accordingly.
- Cooking:
- Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket. Try to spread them out into a single layer for more even cooking. You might need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
- Finishing Touches:
- Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, carefully remove them from the air fryer.
- If you like, toss the roasted potatoes with some fresh herbs like chopped rosemary or thyme for an extra flavor boost.
- Serving:
- Serve the air fryer roast potatoes hot as a delicious side dish. They pair wonderfully with a wide range of main courses, from roasted meats to vegetarian options.
Tips:
- Size Matters: Cutting the potatoes into uniform sizes ensures they cook evenly.
- Don’t Overcrowd: Cooking in batches may be necessary to avoid overcrowding, which can lead to steaming rather than roasting.
- Shake or Toss: Shaking the basket halfway through cooking promotes even browning and crispiness.
- Seasoning Variations: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings based on your preference. Curry powder, Italian seasoning, or even a bit of grated Parmesan cheese added towards the end of cooking can add a unique twist.
Enjoy your crispy and flavorful air fryer roast potatoes!
