I Swear By My Easy, Quick Air Fryer Potato Recipe For Busy Days

. Once we’re over the hump of midweek, I often find myself really drained of energy and the thought of standing in the kitchen cooking for an hour or so is completely exhausting. When I hit this stage, the temptation to just order a takeaway is strong but I have found that keeping a bag of new potatoes in the fridge and grabbing them on occassions like this, paired with some salad and a bit of frozen food can actually do the trick. Plus, I don’t need to buy an extra ingredients. Win-win. The easy air fryer potato recipe I swear by So, I will say, I don’t use exact measurements. When you’re tired and wired out from stress, you don’t need to also be thinking about maths. I measure with my heart and sometimes, that means having a little more garlic than I expected. First, I chop up the potatoes into halves and place them into a bowl. I then pour over rapeseed oil (yes, measured with my heart) but if you don’t have that, sunflower oil is fine. Then I sprinkle on: Garlic seasoning Rosemary Salt and pepper Italian seasoning Sometimes, I’ll swirl in some honey before putting them in the air fryer, too. I cook them at 190 for 20 minutes, doing the obligatory air fryer shake halfway through before serving them piping hot with a little sweet chilli oil drizzled over them. What all of this results in is flavourful, tender potatoes that are deliciously soft and warm on the inside and incredibly filling. They could honestly even work as a snack if you just need to get yourself through the day! Of course, this recipe is completely flexible so if you want to add different spices , herbs or coatings for the potatoes, you totally can. It’s mostly about keeping it easy and using ingredients you already have. Let us know if you try it! Related...
