Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, diced into 1 inch cubes Provides great texture and flavor.
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss gently to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasonings and oil.

Cooking

  • Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spread out evenly.
  • Air fry for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the potato cubes and the air fryer model, so keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
  • Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, transfer them to a serving dish.

Notes

Make sure the potato cubes are uniform in size for even cooking. Feel free to try different seasonings like chili powder or Italian herbs for a flavor twist. Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; this will help them cook evenly and become crispier. For a fun variation, add diced onions or bell peppers before air frying.
