Air Fryer Red Potatoes Recipe
Description
The recipe starts by cutting red potatoes into quarters or smaller pieces, then coating them evenly with olive oil and a mix of spices, such as everything bagel seasoning. The air fryer cooks the potatoes at 400°F, ensuring a balance of a crisp outside and a soft inside. Shaking the basket halfway through promotes uniform cooking and browning.
The basic seasoning is versatile, and suggested alternatives include classic salt and garlic powder, southwestern chili powder and cumin, Italian herbs, or Cajun spices. This flexibility lets the recipe accommodate different flavor preferences.
These potatoes can be served alongside a variety of entrées. Checking doneness with a fork helps ensure they are tender before serving.
Smaller dice sizes reduce cooking time. This method also works well with other potato varieties like yellow or russet.

Instructions
- Cut the potatoes into quarters or dice them into smaller, 1-inch pieces.

- They are done when they are starting to brown outside and soft inside. To check for doneness, stick a fork in one, and if it goes in easily, they are ready to eat.
