Crispy spiral russet potatoes seasoned, air-fried, and garnished with Parmesan and parsley for a fun, tasty snack.
# What You'll Need:
→ Potatoes
01 - 4 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed
→ Seasoning
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
→ Optional Toppings
07 - 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (omit for vegan preparation)
08 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
09 - 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
# Cooking Steps:
01 - Insert a long wooden or metal skewer lengthwise through the center of each potato.
02 - Holding the skewer, use a sharp knife to slice the potato in a spiral motion, rotating the potato as you slice from one end to the other. Carefully stretch the potato along the skewer to space out the spirals evenly.
03 - In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until thoroughly blended.
04 - Brush or rub the seasoning mixture evenly over each spiraled potato, ensuring the seasoning covers all layers and crevices.
05 - Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for 3 minutes to ensure optimal crisping.
06 - Place the skewered potatoes in the air fryer basket with adequate space between each to prevent sticking.
07 - Air-fry at 375°F for 20 to 25 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time, until golden and crisp.
08 - Optional: Top with grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and chili flakes prior to serving.
