🥔✨ Crispy Air Fryer Potato Slices

So Easy. So Good. So Addictive. You’ll Make Them Every Day.

“I will stop posting… maybe. But not before I give you the best potato recipe you didn’t know you needed.”

These crispy, golden, perfectly seasoned potato slices are a snack, a side dish, and a late-night craving all in one. Cooked in the air fryer with just a little oil and a lot of flavor, they come out crispy on the edges, tender in the center, and ready to be devoured.

They’re the love child of potato chips and roasted potatoes, with less guilt and more crunch.

📚 A Little Potato History

Potatoes have been around for 7,000 years, originally cultivated by the Incas of Peru. Since then, they’ve conquered the world — boiled, mashed, fried, and baked.

But today?
We air fry.
Why? Because we want crunch without deep-frying, speed without sacrifice, and flavor in every bite.

This recipe is a modern twist on the classic — fast, crispy, and full of soul.

🛒 Ingredients

2 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work best)
1–2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
½ tsp black pepper
Optional: chili flakes, dried herbs, or Parmesan
Fresh parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)

🔪 Instructions

🧼 Step 1: Prep the Potatoes

Wash and peel (or leave skin on for rustic style)
Slice into ¼-inch rounds using a knife or mandoline for even thickness
Rinse slices in cold water to remove starch (makes them crispier)
Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels

🛢️ Step 2: Season

In a bowl, toss potato slices with:
- Olive oil
- Garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper
Optional: add chili flakes for heat or Parmesan for richness

🔥 Tip: Use smoked paprika for that subtle BBQ vibe

🍽️ Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C)
Lay slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket (no overlapping!)
Air fry for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through
Cook in batches if needed

🥇 Edges will be crisp, centers soft — potato slice heaven.

✨ Step 4: Finish & Serve

Sprinkle with chopped herbs, more salt, or a dusting of cheese
Serve immediately with:
- Spicy mayo
- Garlic aioli
- Ketchup
- Or just straight off the tray (zero shame)

🧠 Method & Formation

This method works because of:

Even slicing → uniform cooking
Cold water rinse → removes starch = better crunch
Air fryer circulation → perfect crisp without deep frying
Minimal oil → golden edges, not greasy

💕 For Lovers, Friends, and Late-Night Snackers

For lovers:

Serve on a shared plate with two dips, one playlist, and one cozy blanket.
Bonus: They’re easy to make together — one slices, one air-fries, both devour.

For friends:

Plate them as appetizers at game night or movie night.
Watch them disappear faster than you can say “Wait, I didn’t get one!”

For yourself:

Add cheese, a fried egg, or hot sauce.
Sit down. Eat in silence. Appreciate life.
