Here is a simple recipe to make air fryer potato chips:
Ingredients:
2 large potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold)
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and seasonings of your choice (such as paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder)
Instructions:
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if you prefer, but leaving the skin adds flavor and texture.
Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin and uniform slices. Try to make them as even as possible for consistent cooking.
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for about 15 to 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help make the chips crispier.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
In a bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil and the chosen seasonings until evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. You may need to cook them in batches.
Air fry the potato chips for about 10 to 15 minutes, flipping or shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning.
Monitor the cooking of the chips closely as cooking times may vary based on the thickness of the slices and the specific model of the air fryer.
Once the chips are crispy and golden, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings and sauces to customize your air fryer potato chips according to your taste. Enjoy your homemade crispy chips without the guilt of deep frying!
