UK Metric Measures - US Customary Measures

Instructions

  • Cut the potatoes: Cut 500 g of Potatoes into 2cm thick wedges.
  • Soak and dry the wedges: Add the cut wedges to a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes.
  • Dry the wedges: Drain them and pat dry thoroughly.
  • Preheat: If your air fryer requires pre-heating, then do this now.
  • Coat with oil and seasoning: Add the dried wedges to a bowl with 1 tbsp of Olive oil, 1 tsp of Italian seasoning and 1 tsp of Garlic granules.
  • Mix: Mix well with your hands so that all the wedges are coated.
  • Arrange in the basket: Arrange a single layer of wedges, skin side down, in the bottom of the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if needed.
  • Air fry and shake: Cook on the Air Fry setting at 180°C for 25 minutes, shaking the basket twice during cooking.
  • Check for doneness and finish: Then serve with chopped fresh herbs (we used Fresh parsley) and grated Parmesan (both optional).
    • For vegan wedges, omit the Parmesan or use a vegan alternative.

Notes

  • The best potatoes to use are Maris Piper or King Edward in the UK; Russet in the US.
  • These wedges were cooked in a Ninja Dual 9.5 litre air fryer. As all air fryers are different, you may have different results if using another brand of air fryer.
  • When mixing the oil and seasoning into the potatoes, use your hands to get everything more evenly distributed.
  • Try to cut your wedges as evenly as possible to ensure they all cook at the same rate.
