Crispy Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes

Crispy, golden and full of flavour. These air fryer roasted potatoes are quick to prepare and cook in under 25 minutes, making them an easy side dish for any day of the week. They’re soft inside, perfectly seasoned and require only a small amount of oil—a great addition to roasts, midweek meals or holiday hosting. Made with the NEW HADEN 6.5L Cream Air Fryer.

Ingredients

• 800g baby potatoes
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
  
• Flaky salt
• Fresh herbs to finish

Method

1. Place each potato between two chopsticks and slice thinly. This creates the Hasselback effect and stops you from cutting all the way through.
2. Add the potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and a generous pinch of salt. Mix well so each potato is coated.
3. Cook in your air fryer at 200°C for 20 minutes. Shake halfway through. They should be crisp, golden and tender inside.
4. Serve warm. Finish with fresh herbs and a sprinkle of Parmesan.

Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Potatoes

• Don’t overcrowd the basket — this helps them crisp properly.
• Keep the potato pieces similar in size to ensure even cooking.
• Add fresh rosemary or thyme for extra flavour.

Why This Recipe Works

The air fryer circulates hot air around the potatoes, giving you the same crisp texture as oven-roasting but in a fraction of the time. With minimal oil and simple seasoning, it’s an easy upgrade to everyday meals.
