Description
A delicious crispy shredded potato dish prepared in an air fryer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium potatoes (peeled and shredded, russets)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion (diced)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Instructions
- After peeling and shredding the potatoes, let them soak in cold water for 20 minutes. (This will help remove the starch from the potatoes which will make them get crispy when cooking and not mushy.)
- Drain potatoes and remove as much water as possible. Lay on a stack of paper towels and squeeze to remove moisture.
- Combine potatoes, olive oil, onions, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
- Preheat air fryer to 400F.
- Mix well.
- Add mixture to your greased air fryer basket.
- Air fry for 20 minutes, flipping every 5 minutes until the top is golden brown and crisped for your liking.
- Optional: You can top with shredded cheese if you choose and air fry for 2-3 minutes at the end until it melts. Alternatively, you can transfer to a plate and melt cheese in the microwave.
Notes
- Soaking the potatoes helps achieve a crispy texture.
- Make sure to remove excess moisture for the best results.
