🥔 Ingredients

4 large potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold work best)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic granules
1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
½ teaspoon salt

🔪 Instructions

1. Prepare the Potatoes

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and slice them into ½ cm thick rounds. Keeping the slices even will help them cook uniformly.

2. Soak & Dry

Place the slices in a pot of water to prevent browning and remove excess starch.
Once all are cut, drain them and pat completely dry using kitchen paper or a clean towel.

3. Season

Transfer the dried slices into a bowl. Add olive oil, garlic granules, dried herbs, and salt.
Mix well until each slice is evenly coated with seasoning.

4. Cook in the Air Fryer

Place the seasoned potato slices in the air fryer basket, spreading them out evenly.
Cook at 200°C (390°F) for 18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway to ensure even cooking.
If needed, cook for an extra 2 minutes for added crispiness.

5. Serve & Enjoy

Once golden and crispy, serve them hot. Enjoy as a snack, side dish, or with your favorite dip like garlic mayo, aioli, or spicy ketchup.
