Ingredients:
- Potatoes (russet, Yukon Gold, or your preferred variety)
- Cooking oil (such as olive oil or vegetable oil)
- Seasonings (salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, etc.)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and peel the potatoes if desired, or leave the skin on for extra texture and nutrients.
- Slice the potatoes into your preferred thickness, but keep in mind that thinner slices will cook faster and become crispier.
- Season the Slices:
- Place the sliced potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
- Drizzle a small amount of cooking oil over the slices. You can use a brush or your hands to make sure the slices are lightly coated with oil.
- Season the potatoes with your choice of seasonings. Common choices include salt, pepper, and paprika, but you can get creative with other spices and herbs.
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to the recommended temperature for making fries or potato chips, which is typically around 375°F (190°C).
- Cook the Potatoes:
- Place the seasoned potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even cooking.
- Cook for about 10-15 minutes, pausing to shake or flip the slices halfway through the cooking time.
- Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the potato slices and your specific air fryer model. Keep an eye on them and adjust the cooking time as needed to achieve your desired level of crispiness.
- Serve:
- Once the potato slices are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or aioli.
