Potatoes -It's best to use Russet or Idaho potatoes, but you can use fingerling or red potatoes if that's what you have in your pantry.

Salt- Who doesn't love a salty french fry?
Pepper- Freshly cracked peppercorns taste amazing on piping hot potatoes.
Vinegar- Just a drizzle to help balance out the starch in the potatoes.

Why Do You Soak Potatoes In Water Before Air Frying?

While this may be a common practice for some styles of potatoes or certain recipes, it's not necessary for cooking potatoes in your air fryer. It won't change the flavor to soak them and it won't make them less starchy.

Can You Cook Frozen Potato Wedges In An Air Fryer?

The fresh-cut option is always better, but some days we have to cut corners to get food on the table for a hungry family.

Not only can you cook frozen potatoes in the air fryer, but you should! The air fryer makes them crispy on the outside while keeping them tender in the center.

How To Cut Potato Wedges

I love to give specific instructions as much as I can, but there's not a fine art to slicing a potato. They're never the same shape and they're rarely the same size.

I Like to cut my potatoes in half and then quarter them. If the pieces still seem extra thick, just cut them in half again.

How To Make Air Fryer Potato Wedges

Thoroughly wash your potatoes to remove any dirt. This is common with root vegetables.
Toss them in your favorite seasoning blend. I prefer a little salt, pepper, and dill.
Throw them in the air fryer with a light spray of oil.
Cook until they're pillowy soft.
Serve and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

Wash then well. Leaving the skin on your potato wedges gives a crispy bite, You just want to make sure you've removed all of the dirt or debris.
Salt them. Add some salt before cooking and another pinch when they're fresh out of the air fryer.
Cut them thin. The thinner you cut your potato wedges, the crispier they will be and the faster they will cook.

How Long Does It Take To Air Fry Potatoes?
