Wash and dry the small potatoes thoroughly. There's no need to peel them unless preferred.
Cut the potatoes in half or quarters, ensuring that they're uniformly sized for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 400Β°F (200Β°C) for 2-3 minutes, if your model requires preheating.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Cook the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote even cooking.
Check the potatoes for doneness by piercing the center with a fork. They should be tender and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the potatoes and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if using. Serve immediately while hot.
