Ingredients You Need for Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes Recipe

• 4 medium potatoes, washed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Optional: dried herbs like oregano or parsley

Instructions

1. Wash and dry potatoes

Clean the potatoes well under cool water. Dry fully using paper towels so oil and spices stick nicely during cooking.

2. Slice the potatoes evenly

Cut thin even slices using a knife or mandoline carefully. Try to keep similar thickness so the slices cook evenly and become crispy together.

3. Soak the slices in water

Place slices in cold water for ten minutes to remove extra starch. This simple step helps get better crisp texture while air frying.

4. Dry the slices completely

Drain the water and pat slices dry with paper towels well. Moisture causes steaming not crisping, so be sure the slices feel dry.

5. Season the potato slices

Add slices to a bowl with olive oil and spices. Toss gently until each slice is coated evenly with oil and seasoning mix.

6. Preheat the air fryer

Set air fryer to 375°F or 190°C for a few minutes. Preheating helps quicker crisping and more even cooking of every potato slice.

7. Arrange slices in basket

Place seasoned slices in one layer inside basket. Do not overcrowd or stack slices because airflow is important for crispy results always.

8. Cook and flip halfway

Air fry for 12 to 15 minutes until golden and crisp. Flip slices halfway through cooking time so both sides turn evenly brown and crunchy.

9. Check doneness and adjust time

Thicker slices may need extra minutes in air fryer. Cook until soft inside and crispy outside just as you like best.

10. Serve hot and enjoy

Remove from basket carefully and serve at once. Hot air fryer sliced potatoes taste best fresh with dips like ketchup or garlic mayo.

Recipe Tips

• Cut slices evenly for the best crisp texture
• Do not overcrowd the basket
• Soak slices to remove extra starch
• Dry potatoes fully before seasoning
• Shake basket during cooking for even browning
• Add chili flakes for heat
• Use sweet potatoes for a fun twist
