Ingredients

Potatoes and Seasonings

  • 2 large Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes These starchy potatoes are perfect for achieving a fluffy inside with a crispy outside.
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder Adds a fragrant, flavorful kick.
  • 1/2 tsp paprika Optional, for a subtle hint of smokiness and rich color.
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or cooking spray Essential for achieving that golden-brown finish.
  • 1/2 tsp salt Enhances overall flavors.
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper For a touch of warmth and depth.
  • Fresh herbs or grated parmesan Optional topping for an extra burst of flavor.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Wash the potatoes thoroughly under cold water and slice them into 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick rounds.
  • Soak the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water for 15–30 minutes to remove excess starch.
  • Drain the slices and pat them dry completely with a clean kitchen towel.

Cooking

  • In a mixing bowl, toss the dried potato slices with olive oil and all the seasonings until well coated.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 375°F if recommended by your model.
  • Place the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping.
  • Cook for 12–18 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and crispy. Check frequently.
  • Optionally, sprinkle with fresh herbs or grated parmesan before serving.

Notes

For even crispiness, consider cooking in batches if making a large quantity. Customize seasonings to fit your taste!
