Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes (if desired) and slice them into even sticks about 1/4 inch wide. Try to keep the sizes consistent for even cooking.
Step 2
Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl of cold water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps them crisp up.
Step 3
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel. Removing excess moisture is essential for achieving crispy chips.
Step 4
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, toss the dry potato sticks with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder until they are evenly coated.
Step 6
Arrange the potato sticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do this in batches if necessary, rather than crowding the basket, to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Cook the chips in the air fryer for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time for even crisping.
Step 8
Once cooked to your desired level of crispness and color, remove the chips from the air fryer and serve immediately. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
Step 9
Enjoy your delicious and healthier air fried chips!
