Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 Lemon
Instructions
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into halves or quarters depending on their size to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cut potatoes to the bowl and toss well, ensuring each piece is evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding to ensure crispiness.
Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
While the potatoes are cooking, chop the fresh parsley finely.
Once cooking is complete, remove the potatoes from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the potatoes just before serving to add a zesty flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish with your favorite Mediterranean meal.
