Servings: 4
Ingredients
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon potato starch
- 2 russet potatoes sliced into wedges
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- 1 ½ tablespoons neutral oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Combine the potato wedges and all remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl, tossing thoroughly until the seasoning and oil uniformly coat the surface of each wedge.
- Arrange the seasoned wedges in a single, even layer in the basket of the air fryer. Cook at 400°F for 15 minutes, ensuring to shake the basket at five-minute intervals to promote consistent browning and crisping.
Notes
Avoid overloading the fryer basket to allow optimal air circulation, which is essential for achieving crispiness. If necessary, prepare the wedges in multiple batches.
Ensure uniform wedge sizes to prevent uneven cooking, avoiding a mix of underdone and overly crisp pieces.
For enhanced crispiness, soak the wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking. Pat them dry thoroughly with a towel before seasoning and air frying.
