Air-Fryer Potato-Skin Wedges

When I first started out making wedges, the one thing I was intimidated by was how to cut potatoes into the perfect shape wedge. Getting them crispy was another insane issue I had. It is actually the complete opposite, and they are so easy to make. I prefer them over making regular fries.

Ingredients

• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup water
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 3 tablespoons canola oil
• 4 medium russet potatoes

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Place in a bowl and refrigerate until completely cool, about 30 minutes.

Step 3

Combine oil, paprika, black pepper, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut cooled potatoes into quarters and toss into the mixture.

Step 4

Add 1/2 the potato wedges to the air fryer basket, placing them skin-side down and being careful not to overcrowd.

Step 5

Cook until golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining wedges.
