Air Fryer Potato Wedges
With one extra step, these air fryer wedges come out very crispy on the outside and so creamy on the inside, just as everyone loves them. Serve them as a side dish, delicious snack, or appetizer with your favorite dipping sauce.
Equipment
- 1 Medium Pot
- 1 colander
- 1 Air fryer
Ingredients
- 3 medium Yukon gold potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt, divided
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Bring water to a rolling boil in a medium pot. Rinse the potatoes well. Cut each potato into wedges.
- Add potato wedges to the boiling water and boil them for 5 minutes from the time they start boiling.
- Using a colander, drain the potatoes. Keep them in a colander to dry. The heat from the steam will dry them. It takes about 5 minutes or until the steam is no longer visible.
- Transfer the potatoes to the large bowl. Add olive oil, half of the salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. Use a spatula to mix them carefully not to break the potato wedges.
- Add seasoned potato wedges to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fryer for about 15 minutes or until crispy, shaking them briefly every 5 minutes. Once cooked, season them with the remaining salt or to taste.
Notes
Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.
To make them spicy, add about ⅛ teaspoons of cayenne pepper.
