How to make air fryer canned potatoes
Preheat the air fryer to 400F / 200C for 3-5 minutes
Carefully open the canned potatoes, drain in a colander, and rinse under the tap. Pat it completely dry with a kitchen paper towel or leave it to air dry if time is not of the essence. This will enhance the crispiness of the potatoes.
Place the potatoes in a bowl and drizzle olive oil on top. Sprinkle herbs de Provence, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Toss or combine with a spatula, ensuring every potato is coated with the seasonings.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil, then place the seasoned potatoes in a single layer so that they cook evenly. Cook for about 18-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through until golden and crispy on the outside and fork tender.
Serve as desired. enjoy
