AIR FRYER HASSELBACK POTATOES RECIPE
Ingredients:
4 medium-sized potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work well)
2 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves (or your favorite herb)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
Preheat Your Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for added texture and flavor. Place a potato between two chopsticks or wooden spoons. Make thin, even slices across the potato, stopping before you cut all the way through. This "accordion" style slicing creates the Hasselback effect.
Season the Potatoes: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter or olive oil, minced garlic, and fresh rosemary leaves. Brush this flavorful mixture over the potatoes, making sure to get it between the slices. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
Air Fry to Crispy Perfection: Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Cook for about 30-35 minutes, checking halfway through. The potatoes should turn crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Optional Cheese Topping: If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking. This adds a delightful cheesy crust.
Serve and Enjoy: Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the air fryer basket. Serve hot and savor the crispy, flavorful goodness.
