Crispy Air Fryer Baby (Mini) Potatoes
These extra-crispy Air Fryer Baby (Mini) Potatoes are a simple and delicious side dish that pairs well with just about anything.
Ingredients
- 500 g baby potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp cajun spices
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ tsp salt
Instructions
- Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut the larger ones in half or quarters to ensure even cooking.
- In a mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and cajun spices. Make sure each piece is evenly coated for the best flavor.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Set the air fryer to 195°C (385°F) and cook for 18–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The potatoes should be crispy on the outside and fork-tender inside.
- Once done, transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly chopped herbs for extra flavor. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- If cutting the potatoes, make sure they’re all similar in size for even cooking.
- Tossing the potatoes halfway through ensures they cook evenly and get crispy on all sides.
- Use just enough amount of olive oil. A light coating helps with crisping, but too much can make them greasy.
- Serve immediately as they taste best fresh out of the air fryer while still crispy.
