Ingredients
- 1kg of potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1–2 Tbsp Sunflower Oil
Optional: Sprigs of fresh rosemary, salt or garlic salt.
Instructions
Place your potatoes in a pan, bring them to a boil and then simmer and cook for ten minutes.
Drain your potatoes well, then place into a bowl. Add to the bowl the sunflower oil, and make sure you turn and toss them in the oil, so all sides are evenly coated. Put to one side until you want to air fry them.
When ready to cook the potatoes, place your potatoes into your air fryer with your air frying removable metal base in place. DO NOT over fill the air fryer. You should have space between each potato segment otherwise they do not go as crisp. Then switch your air fryer on. Then press “air fry” mode, followed by pressing to 200 degrees centigrade and finally select 15 minutes for time. Time all depends on how big you have cut your potato chunks, variety of potato and if you par boiled them enough. You can watch my video below which will give you an idea of size.
Then whilst cooking, about every 3-4 minutes, just remove the draw of the air fryer and shake and move around the potatoes.
Notes
Maris Pipers, Albert Bartlett and Golden Kings make great roast potatoes.
