Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
Seasonings
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1 tsp dried mixed herbs
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash each potato thoroughly to remove any dirt. Slice the potatoes into rounds, each about 1/2 cm thick, ensuring even slices for uniform cooking.
- Soak and Dry: As you slice the potatoes, place them into a pot of water. This step helps remove excess starch and promotes crispiness. After all are sliced, drain the water and pat the slices completely dry with kitchen paper or a clean kitchen towel.
- Season the Slices: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried potato slices with olive oil, garlic granules, dried mixed herbs, and salt. Toss well until all slices are evenly coated.
- Air Fry: Arrange the seasoned potato slices in the air fryer basket in an even layer. Set the air fryer to 200°C (390°F) and cook for 18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning. If needed, cook for an additional 2 minutes for extra crispiness.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once the slices are golden and crisp at the edges, transfer to a serving plate. Enjoy them immediately as a snack or side dish.
Notes
- Use starchy potatoes like Russets for crispier results.
- Patting the potato slices dry is crucial for maximum crispiness.
- Feel free to add other spices or herbs to customize the flavor.
- If your air fryer is small, cook the potatoes in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Best served fresh and hot for optimal texture.
