Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes

Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes

Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes are the perfect quick side dish or snack. With a lightly seasoned crispy exterior and soft, fluffy inside, these potato rounds are a healthier alternative to fried potatoes and require very little oil. They pair perfectly with nearly any meal and cook up fast in the air fryer — ideal for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes* (any firm potato works well)

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp garlic granules

  • 1 tsp dried mixed herbs

  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Potatoes

Wash potatoes thoroughly. Slice into 1/2 cm thick rounds (about 1/4 inch).

2️⃣ Soak and Dry

Place slices in a pot of water while you finish cutting.
This removes excess starch and improves crispiness.
Drain fully, then pat dry with kitchen towels.

3️⃣ Season

Add potato slices to a bowl. Toss with olive oil, garlic granules, dried herbs, and salt until evenly coated.

4️⃣ Air Fry

Arrange slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer for best results.
Cook at 200°C (390°F) for 18 minutes, shaking halfway.
Check for crispness — if needed, add 2 extra minutes.

5️⃣ Serve

Enjoy warm as a snack or serve alongside chicken, steak, burgers, or salads.

Notes

  • Do not overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if needed.

  • Add a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

  • Prefer wedges or thinner slices? Adjust cooking times slightly.

  • For extra crispiness, add 1 teaspoon cornstarch during seasoning.
