Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs small potatoes Choose uniform, similar-sized potatoes for even cooking.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Adjust to your preference for crispiness.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Feel free to add more for stronger flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon paprika Adjust to taste.
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • Fresh herbs (optional) For garnish, consider rosemary or thyme.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a crispy finish.
  2. Wash and dry the small potatoes thoroughly, then cut them in half to maximize crispiness.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the potato halves cut side down in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  2. Cook for 20-25 minutes, checking for golden brown color and crispy texture. The potatoes should be tender when pierced with a fork.
  3. Once cooked, remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly to avoid burns.
  4. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve them warm for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the air fryer to regain crispness.
