🥘 Ingredients

medium red potatoes — 4 (about 600g / 1.3 lbs)
vegetable or olive oil — 1 tablespoon (15 ml)
salt — to taste
optional spices: paprika, garlic powder — to taste

👨‍🍳 Steps

1Wash potatoes thoroughly and cut into even sticks. Dry very well with a clean kitchen towel – this helps them become crispier.
2Toss the sticks with a thin layer of oil, salt, pepper, and chosen spices (paprika or garlic). Use just enough oil to lightly coat them.
3Air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even browning.
4Serve immediately while hot and crispy on the outside. Add extra salt, spices, or dip as desired.
