Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
Instructions
Thoroughly wash and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into wedges, approximately 6-8 wedges per potato depending on size.
Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them soak for at least 20 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps achieve crispiness.
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove any moisture.
In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until evenly coated.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned potato wedges in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook the potato wedges in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
Check for doneness by piercing a wedge with a fork; it should be tender on the inside and crispy on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the wedges from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve the crispy potato wedges hot as a side dish or snack, paired well with your favorite dipping sauce.
