Air Fryer Potato Wedges
Description
The recipe begins by slicing cleaned white potatoes into wedges, which are then tossed by hand with extra virgin olive oil and a spice mixture including Cajun seasoning, sweet paprika, salt, and black pepper. These seasoned wedges are cooked in an air fryer at 180°C (360°F) for 15 minutes. After confirming tenderness with a fork, the temperature is increased to 200°C (400°F) for an additional 7 minutes to enhance crispness. The final wedges retain moisture inside while developing a spicy, crunchy outer layer.
This method yields a versatile side that pairs well with a variety of sauces or dips and suits many flavor preferences. The air fryer method removes the need for deep frying while achieving satisfying texture.
The recipe notes suggest flexibility in seasoning; alternatives like fajita or barbecue seasoning can be used. For sweet potato versions, refer to an air fryer sweet potato wedges recipe. Additional kitchen tips highlight compatible air fryer models and related recipes for variety.
