Ingredients
- 500 g baby potatoes halved or quartered depending on size
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon herbs de Provence
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 50 g shredded cheese or substitute with grated parmesan if preferred
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prep the potatoes
- Wash and cut baby potatoes in halves or quarters, depending on size. Leave the skin on for extra crispiness and flavor.
Season and mix
- Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add melted butter, a drizzle of olive oil, and your seasoning blend (garlic powder, onion powder, herbs de Provence, and sweet paprika). Sprinkle in shredded cheese (or parmesan if preferred). Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Load the air fryer
- Transfer the seasoned potatoes into your air fryer basket. Spread them out in a single layer so they cook evenly and get crispy on all sides.
Air fry until golden
- Cook at 200°C (390°F) for 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping the potatoes halfway through. Check for doneness—the potatoes should be crisp on the outside and fork-tender inside.
Ready to Serve
- Once perfectly roasted, plate them while they’re still hot and crispy. These cheesy air fryer potatoes are best enjoyed fresh!
