"The hot and fast air circulation crisps up the outside perfectly, while keeping the insides light and fluffy. However, one of the best things to make in the appliance is potatoes."
"If cut potatoes come in contact with a cold surface, like an air fryer basket, that starch will bond to the surface as it's released during cooking, creating a glue-like effect."
"All you need is a tablespoon or so of oil to create a good barrier when air frying potatoes. Extra virgin olive oil will add a lot of flavor, but canola and avocado oil are great options too."
Air fryers are versatile appliances that cook food quickly and efficiently. Potatoes, when coated in oil, crisp up nicely while remaining fluffy inside. The high starch content in potatoes can cause them to stick to the air fryer basket if not coated. A small amount of oil creates a barrier, preventing this sticking and enhancing flavor. Extra virgin olive oil is recommended for taste, but canola and avocado oils are also suitable. Using the right type of potato, such as Russets or Yukon Gold, yields the best results.
