Garlic Parmesan Potato Rounds

Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Potato Rounds

Ingredients

• 2–3 medium russet or Yukon Gold potatoes

• 1½–2 tbsp olive oil

• ½ tsp salt

• ½ tsp black pepper

• ½ tsp paprika (optional but recommended)

• ½ tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano

• 2–3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)

• ⅓ cup grated Parmesan (freshly grated = best crisp)

• Optional garnish: fresh parsley, extra Parmesan, red pepper flakes

Instructions

1. Prep the potatoes
   Wash and slice potatoes into ¼-inch thick rounds. Try to keep them even so they cook uniformly.

2. Season
   In a bowl, toss potato rounds with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning, and garlic until well coated.

3. Air fry – first round
   Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
   Arrange potatoes in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
   Air fry for 10 minutes, then flip.

4. Add the Parmesan magic
   Sprinkle Parmesan evenly over the potatoes.
   Air fry for another 6–8 minutes, until golden, crispy on the edges, and tender inside.

5. Finish & serve
   Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with parsley or extra cheese if you’re feeling fancy.

Pro Tips

• Want them extra crispy? Soak sliced potatoes in cold water for 20–30 minutes, then dry really well before seasoning.

• For a buttery vibe, toss with a teaspoon of melted butter after cooking.

• These slap with garlic aioli, ranch, or spicy mayo on the side.
