Air Fryer Potato Slices Roast
Yield: 2–4 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15–20 minutes
Ingredients
-
2–3 medium potatoes, washed and thinly sliced (about ¼ inch thick)
-
1–2 tbsp olive oil or cooking spray
-
½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
-
¼ tsp black pepper
-
½ tsp garlic powder
-
½ tsp paprika or smoked paprika
-
½ tsp dried rosemary or thyme (optional)
-
Optional toppings: chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, or chili flakes
Directions
Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
-
Wash the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if desired, but keeping the skin adds extra texture and nutrients.
-
Slice the potatoes evenly, about ¼ inch thick. Uniform slices help them cook evenly.
Step 2: Season the Potato Slices
-
Place the slices in a large bowl.
-
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and optional herbs.
-
Toss well to coat all slices evenly.
Step 3: Preheat the Air Fryer
-
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes. Preheating ensures the potatoes roast evenly and get crispy.
Step 4: Arrange in the Air Fryer
-
Place the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
Step 5: Air Fry the Potatoes
-
Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through for even browning.
-
Check for crispiness; if needed, cook 2–3 more minutes until golden and crispy.
Step 6: Serve
-
Remove the roasted potato slices and place them on a serving plate.
-
Garnish with chopped parsley, a sprinkle of Parmesan, or chili flakes for extra flavor.
Tips & Variations
-
Extra Crispy: Soak potato slices in cold water for 10–15 minutes before seasoning to remove excess starch. Pat dry before cooking.
-
Spicy Version: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
-
Cheesy Twist: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the hot slices just before serving.
-
Herb Mix: Experiment with thyme, oregano, or Italian seasoning.
-
Batch Cooking: Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure crispiness.
