Easy Air Fryer Potatoes Recipe
Description
This recipe starts with baby gold potatoes cut into halves or 1-inch pieces to ensure even cooking. They are coated with olive oil and seasoned with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. The Parmesan adds a savory, slightly nutty note and helps contribute to a crisp exterior.
The potatoes are cooked in an air fryer at 400 degrees Fahrenheit initially for 10 minutes, then stirred and cooked for an additional 8 to 10 minutes until they reach preferred crispness. This method achieves a golden, crispy outer layer while keeping the interior tender.
Finished potatoes can be garnished with fresh herbs for an additional fresh flavor dimension. The recipe is straightforward and convenient for side dishes needing minimal prep.
Though freshly grated cheese is generally recommended for melting qualities, in this recipe the use of pre-grated Parmesan from a shaker is preferred to support the crispy coating common in air frying.
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby gold potato
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper or 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper, cracked
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning or Herbs de Provence
- ⅓ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Cut potatoes in half or into 1-inch pieces. Toss with olive oil to coat.
- Season potatoes with salt, pepper, Italian sasoning, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese, stirring to coat well.
- Transfer potatoes to a greased air fryer basket.
- Set to 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Give potatoes a stir, then cook for 8-10 minutes longer depending on how crispy you like them.
- Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve.
Notes
- The recipe favors pre-grated Parmesan cheese from a shaker to achieve a crisp coating on the air-fried potatoes rather than fresh grated cheese.
- Cut potatoes into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Garnishing with fresh herbs after cooking adds brightness but is optional.
