Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 medium medium potatoes sliced into wedges
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper optional, for a kick
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil
  • to taste Fresh parsley or dried parsley for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel the potatoes if you prefer, then cut them into evenly sized wedges.
  2. Soak the wedges in an ice bath for 30 minutes to help remove excess starch.
  3. Drain the wedges and pat them completely dry with a clean towel.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the wedges and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper for an extra kick, then toss evenly.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  2. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  3. Once cooked, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 2-3 days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to regain crispiness. Cut evenly for uniform cooking and avoid overcrowding the air fryer.
