Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes washed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary crushed slightly
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly, then dry them well with a kitchen towel.
  • Cut the potatoes in half to ensure even and faster cooking.
  • In a large mixing bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
  • Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overcrowding.
  • Air fry for 20 to 25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
  • Once crispy and golden, remove and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm.

Notes

Ensure the air fryer basket is not overcrowded to keep the potatoes from steaming. You may need to cook in batches. Letting the potatoes rest a minute or two after air frying before garnishing can make the crisp last longer.
