Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs key potatoes (like Yukon Gold or baby potatoes) Waxy potatoes provide the best texture.
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated) Sprinkle over the potatoes for a cheesy finish.
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • to taste Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.
  2. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl and add olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Arrange the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer to avoid overcrowding.
  3. Air fry for 15 minutes. Open the basket and shake the potatoes for even browning.
  4. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes and air fry for an additional 5-10 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
  5. Once done, remove the potatoes and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a kick, add chili flakes. For a dairy-free option, use nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.
