Instructions
- Cut the potatoes into quarters or dice them into smaller, 1-inch pieces.
- Put them in a medium bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and then add the spices. Toss to mix everything together, so the spices coat all the pieces.
- Put the potato mixture in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes for diced or 20 minutes for quartered. Take the basket out halfway through the cooking time and shake it to redistribute and ensure even cooking.
- 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.
Notes
- Smaller potato pieces cook faster and crisp more evenly.
- Stir or shake the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and crisping.
- This recipe is also adaptable to other potato types, such as yellow or russet potatoes.
