Oh yes—air fryer potato wedges are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and way easier than deep-frying! 🥔✨ Here’s a simple recipe:
Air Fryer Potato Wedges
Ingredients (serves 2–4):
- 3–4 medium russet or Yukon gold potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika (smoked or regular)
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prep the potatoes:
- Wash and scrub potatoes. Cut into wedges (about 8 wedges per potato).
- Optional: soak in cold water for 20–30 minutes for extra crispiness. Drain and pat dry.
- Season:
- Toss wedges in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheat air fryer:
- Preheat to 200°C / 400°F for 3–5 minutes.
- Cook:
- Place wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket (cook in batches if needed).
- Air fry 15–20 minutes, shaking basket halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve:
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot with ketchup, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Pro tips:
- Don’t overcrowd the basket—air circulation is key for crispiness.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of chili powder, cumin, or Parmesan before air frying.
- Soaking in water removes excess starch and gives a crunchier exterior.
I can also give a cheesy garlic air fryer potato wedges version that’s loaded with flavor. Do you want that recipe?
