Air fryer roast potatoes
If you’re looking for a lighter, healthier version of a roast potato, or you’re simply short on oven space, try this air fryer roast potato recipe for delicious, crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, roast potatoes!
Ingredients
- 2 large floury potatoes (approximately 450g/1lb) (see Recipe Tip)
- salt, to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Method
Peel and quarter the potatoes before par-boiling them in a saucepan of already boiling, salted water for 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes well and leave them to steam dry for a minute or two before tossing with the olive oil and a generous seasoning of salt.
Air-fry for 30 minutes at 200C, tossing every 10 minutes to ensure they crisp up and brown evenly.
Recipe Tips
This recipe was tested in a 3.2 litre/5½ pint basket air fryer. It will also work in a model fitted with a stirring paddle – in this case, you will not need to toss the potatoes during cooking. It is also easily scaled up to feed more people in a larger air fryer.
Large potatoes are best for this recipe, if you are using smaller potatoes make sure they are cut into large chunks or reduce the par-boil time.
