Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
-
Wash and slice the potatoes: Thoroughly wash the potatoes and slice them into 1/2 cm thick rounds. You can peel them if you prefer, but leaving the skin on adds texture and flavor.
Step 2: Soak and Dry
-
Soak to remove starch: Place the potato slices in a pot of water as you slice them to remove excess starch. This step helps to achieve crispier results.
-
Dry the potatoes: Once all slices are ready, drain the water and pat them dry with kitchen paper or a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3: Season the Slices
-
Toss with seasonings: In a bowl, toss the dried potato slices with olive oil, garlic granules, dried mixed herbs, and salt. Ensure each slice is evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
Step 4: Air Fry
-
Air fry the potatoes: Transfer the seasoned potato slices to the air fryer basket. Spread them out evenly, ensuring they’re not overcrowded.
-
Cook: Air fry at 200°C (390°F) for 18 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping. If needed, cook for an additional 2 minutes until the slices are golden and crispy.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
-
Serve: Once they’re done, serve the crispy potato slices as a delicious side dish or enjoy them as a snack. They’re perfect on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
-
Potato variety: You can use any type of potato you prefer, though starchy varieties like Russet potatoes work best for crispy results.
-
Customize the seasoning: Feel free to add other seasonings like paprika, chili powder, or Parmesan cheese to suit your taste.
-
Air fryer tips: Make sure not to overcrowd the basket for the best results. If you’re making a large batch, cook in batches to ensure even crisping.
