Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 Potatoes Large
  • 2 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Dry parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Prep the potatoes by slicing the potato in half lengthwise with a sharp knife. Place the cut side down and cut the potatoes into thick wedges.
  • Place the potato wedges into a bowl with cold water, and let the potatoes soak for at least 30 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and dry them completely with a clean towel or with paper towels.
  • Place the potatoes into a medium-sized bowl and add the olive oil, garlic powder, dried parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • Mix well until the potato wedges are covered with the seasoning. Brush the air fryer basket with a tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Place the potatoes into the air fryer and cook for 15-20 minutes at 200c (400f). Shaking the basket every 5 minutes.
  • Cook them for longer if needed.
  • Serve the potato wedges as a side dish or as a snack with your ketchup, ranch, or your favorite dressing.

Notes

  • Ensure that you cut your potatoes into even pieces so they will bake evenly. Make sure that every piece of potato is about the same thickness and length.
  • Dip these in your favorite dressing like ketchup, mayonnaise, boom boom sauce, bang bang sauce, ranch, etc.
  • Soak your potatoes in cold water before baking them. This step makes them crispier. It reduces the amount of starch which makes them crispy and delish!
  • Make sure to dry out the potatoes with paper towels or a towel to make them crispy.
  • I highly suggest not overcrowding the air fryer basket, cook it in batches to make them cook properly.
