Adjust the bake time if you have smaller potatoes or use a different variety. The main thing you’re looking for is for the potato to be fully tender and cooked through, with crispy slices that have started to separate. Before making a single cut, you need to clean the potatoes thoroughly to remove dirt. Run the potatoes under cold water and rub the surface of each potato. If they're particularly dirty, you can use a scrub brush. Just make sure to go in circular motions and use the brush itself rather than force to avoid tearing the peel. You want to scrub the potatoes clean, not peel them. Cut the vegetables into thin slices in a fan shape and add your favorite ingredients. You will get a crunchy result on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside. Try it! Flavor: Experiment with flavors and seasonings. You can use chili powder, Italian seasoning, and ranch or create your own mix of flavors.

Baste it: For more intense flavor save half of your seasonings and reapply half way through the cooking time. The potatoes will have opened up some and allow for more butter goodness to seep down it. Butter - We used this instead of oil to coat the potatoes and make them perfectly crispy. We used unsalted butter. Step 3: Melt the butter and cook everything on low heat for four to five minutes. Transfer the melted butter to a bowl using a filter. Remove the potatoes from the oven and drizzle with the remaining butter mixture. Turn on the broiler, then return the potatoes to the oven and broil until the edges are crispy, 5-10 minutes more. Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with the parmesan. Broil until the cheese is browned, 3-5 minutes more. Step 2. Start slicing the potato into even, thin slices without going all the way down to the bottom. Leave about 1/4 to 1/3 inch of the potato untouched in a straight line.

Potatoes are just so good and good for you. They can be cooked in so many different ways and super filling. Got to love those potatoes. Herbs - The fresh herbs add a lovely flavour. You can swap rosemary for fresh thyme if you prefer and parsley could be swapped for coriander. Pay special attention to the ends of the potatoes that need a shallow cut: the guides won’t help here! Repeat for each potato. Baste: Place the potatoes in the bottom of your air fryer basket. Brush the garlic herb butter along the tops of the potatoes.
