Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the Airfryer to 200 °C. This takes about 3 min. Important: A preheated device ensures immediate crispiness.
  2. 2. Wash the 4 potatoes thoroughly under running water. Do not peel them; the skin protects against drying out.
  3. 3. Cut each potato lengthwise into 4 equal wedges. This yields about 16 pieces per potato.
  4. 4. Dry the wedges with a kitchen towel. Moisture is the enemy of crispiness.
  5. 5. Place the 16 potato wedges in a large bowl. Make sure they have space.
  6. 6. Pour the 2 tbsp olive oil over the wedges. The oil conducts heat for browning.
  7. 7. Sprinkle the 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp paprika powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp pepper over it.
  8. 8. Toss the wedges by hand until they shine evenly. Avoid clumps.
  9. 9. Place the wedges in the Airfryer basket in a single layer. Do not stack!
  10. 10. Bake the wedges at 200 °C for 20 min. The air must be able to circulate freely.
  11. 11. Open the basket and shake it vigorously. This ensures all sides brown evenly.
  12. 12. Return the basket and bake for another 10 min at 200 °C. Now it gets really crispy.
  13. 13. Check the crispiness: A wedge should bend slightly but not break.
  14. 14. Remove the wedges carefully. They are very hot. Let them rest for 2 min.
  15. 15. Arrange the wedges on a plate. Perfect: Golden-brown color and a crunch sound when biting.
