Instructions
You will need an air fryer for this recipe. I LOVE my oven type air fryer here in my RV.
Wash and chop up the potatoes. The larger the chunks, the longer they will take to cook. I prefer to cut them on the smaller side (1/4-1/2" pieces) so that I can cook them in 15 mins or less.
Toss all the potatoes into a gallon ziploc bag and drizzle with oil.
Then, sprinkle the desired seasonings in to taste. I honestly don't think you can go overboard on these. They are delicious.
Zip the bag closed and give the potatoes a good shake to evenly coat.
Fill up the racks of the air fryer with the potatoes. Make sure the potatoes are in an even, flat layer to ensure good cooking.
Place racks in air fryer and cook on 400° for 10-15 minutes. Longer if needed for bigger quantities/chunks. They are done when a fork cleanly pokes through them and they start to turn golden.
Side note: If cooking in a bucket air fryer, you might have to cook in batches if you want to cook a bigger quantity. You also might need to give the potatoes a stir halfway through cooking.
