Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 450 g Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into thick chips
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • Salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F / 193°C for 3 minutes.
  2. Pat the potato chips dry with a clean towel, then toss with olive oil, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, and salt until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the chips in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping.
  4. Air fry for 15 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes, until the chips are golden brown with crisp edges.
  5. Check at 12 minutes — the chips should be golden and firm, add 2 to 3 more minutes if needed for extra crispness.
  6. Serve immediately while hot and crispy for the best texture.
