Notes

You don't have to preheat the Air Fryer, but if you have time, then preheating it for 5 minutes will result in crispier potatoes.
If you're using starchy potatoes, then it helps to soak them in cold water for 10-15 minutes prior to roasting them to get rid of the extra starch. Make sure to pat dry the potatoes, as otherwise, they will steam rather than roast.
Use tongs or turner to flip the potatoes halfway through, shaking the basket might break some of the potatoes and won't flip them all.
Serve hot as a side or appetizer. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or cilantro, and make a tasty homemade dip such as ranch dressing, Yum yum sauce, lime crema, or even guacamole!
