🧾 Ingredients List
3–4 medium potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold work best)
1½ tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning
Optional Extras:
Grated Parmesan cheese
Chili flakes for heat
Fresh parsley for garnish
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
🥔 Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the potatoes well. There’s no need to peel them—the skin adds flavor and crispiness.
Slice the potatoes into ¼-inch thick rounds. Try to keep them uniform so they cook evenly.
💦 Step 2: Soak for Extra Crispiness (Optional but Recommended)
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water and soak for 15–20 minutes.
This removes excess starch and helps the potatoes crisp up beautifully.
Drain and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
🧂 Step 3: Season the Potatoes
In a large bowl, add the potato slices.
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle on:
Garlic powder
Paprika
Salt
Black pepper
Oregano or Italian seasoning
Toss until every slice is evenly coated.
🔥 Step 4: Air Fry to Perfection
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C).
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd—cook in batches if necessary.
Air fry for 15–18 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
✨ Step 5: Finish and Serve
Remove the potatoes from the air fryer.
If desired, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs while hot.
Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
