Ingredients:
4 large potatoes – Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes work best, but you can use any variety you prefer.
1 tbsp olive oil – Olive oil helps crisp up the potatoes while adding a lovely rich flavor.
1 tsp garlic granules – Garlic granules provide that delicious garlic taste without being too overpowering.
1 tsp dried mixed herbs – A blend of herbs like thyme, oregano, and rosemary gives the potatoes an aromatic touch.
1/2 tsp salt – A pinch of salt brings out all the flavors in the potatoes.
Directions:
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
Start by washing the potatoes thoroughly. There’s no need to peel them—leaving the skin on adds extra texture and nutrients. Slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds (about 1/4 inch thick) to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 2: Toss with Olive Oil and Seasonings
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss them until all the slices are evenly coated. Then, add the garlic granules, dried mixed herbs, and salt. Toss again to ensure the seasoning is well distributed over the potatoes.
Step 3: Arrange in the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they don’t overlap too much. This will help them crisp up evenly. If you need to cook in batches, that’s perfectly fine!
Step 4: Air Fry the Potatoes
Cook the potatoes at 375°F for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly. The potatoes are done when they’re golden brown and crispy on the outside. The air fryer’s circulating hot air helps achieve that perfect crispiness.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the potatoes are crispy and golden, remove them from the air fryer. Serve them hot as a side dish, snack, or appetizer! Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or just as they are.
