Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Medium bowl
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 pound red fingerling or baby potatoes sliced in half lengthwise
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary leaves removed and minced
  • Coarse sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • If using a conventional air fryer, preheat to 400°F. Preheating is not necessary if using the Ninja Crispi Air Fryer.
  • Wash the potatoes and slice in half lengthwise and place in a medium bowl.
  • Pour the olive oil over the potatoes and mix well to coat each potato.
  • Add the garlic powder and the Kosher salt.
  • Add the minced rosemary.
  • Mix well to thoroughly coat the potatoes with oil and seasonings.
  • Place the potato slices skin side down in the air fryer basket.
  • Air fry the potatoes on 400°F in a conventional air fryer and on the Airfry setting (400°-425°F) if using the Ninja Crispi. Test for doneness and add additional time as necessary.
  • Remove the fully cooked potatoes onto a preheated sheet pan and place in a 200°F oven to keep warm until ready to serve.
  • At serving time sprinkle the potatoes with coarse sea salt. Delicious served with sour cream on the side.

Notes

Cutting the potatoes evenly is the key to getting them to cook at the same rate.
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket or they’ll steam instead of crisp.
If you like extra-crispy edges, give them a quick shake halfway through cooking.
