Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes uniform in size
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Thoroughly scrub the potatoes under cold running water. Once clean, pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel. The skin needs to be dry to crisp up in the air fryer.
- Prick the potatoes all over using a fork to allow the steam to escape while cooking. Coat each potato with olive oil. Sprinkle the sea salt uniformly over the potatoes.
- Place the potatoes in the air-fryer basket. Make sure to leave some space between them to allow the air to circulate. Set the air fryer to 400°F and cook for 30 minutes.
- Flip the potatoes using tongs. Continue to cook for an additional 5 to 15 minutes. The potatoes are done when a fork can easily slide through the center of the potato. The exact time will depend on the size of your potatoes.
- Once fully cooked, remove the potatoes from the air-fryer basket with tongs and transfer them to a serving plate. Let them cool for a few minutes before slicing open. Add your favorite toppings before serving.
