Even though this recipe is really easy, there are a few things I wanted to point out to help you succeed with air frying.
- You’ll need an air fryer, measuring spoons and cups, and a basting brush for your kitchen. A multipurpose air fryer oven and stove or a basket air fryer can be used to prepare air-fried potatoes.
How do the skins end up being so crunchy?
- Following a thorough cleaning, use a paper towel or kitchen towel to gently dry the potatoes before applying oil. This will enable the oil to produce the deliciously crispy exterior on them. For the outside, you can use olive, peanut, or vegetable oil.
- Additionally, the oil aids in the seasonings of sea salt and black pepper sticking to the potatoes.
