Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes about 4 medium-sized
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp dried rosemary or 1 tbsp fresh, chopped
  • Juice and zest of ½ lemon optional
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Prepare potatoes: Wash, peel (optional), and dice potatoes into ½ to ¾-inch cubes.
  • Season: In a mixing bowl, toss diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary, salt, pepper, and lemon zest (optional).
  • Air fry: Place the seasoned potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through. If using, add parmesan during the last 5 minutes.
  • Serve: Once crispy and golden, serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a vegan version, omit the parmesan or use nutritional yeast.
  • Sweet potatoes can be used for a healthier alternative, though they may require a slightly longer cook time.
  • Overcrowding the basket can result in uneven cooking. Cook in batches if needed.
