Step Two: Add the pressure lid to the pressure cooker, and set the high pressure and the cooking time for 7 minutes, move the value into the sealed position. When the cooking time is up, do a quick pressure release.
Step Three: When the lid can easily be removed, remove the pressure cooker lid, and press the saute button. Saute for another 4-5 minutes, or until the potato skin is crispy. You can add a little olive oil, or avocado oil, to help crisp up the potato skins.
Easy Ninja Foodi Red Potatoes Recipe Tips
- Cut evenly: Slice potatoes into uniform pieces for even cooking.
- Dry before seasoning: Pat potatoes dry to help them crisp up better.
- Use fresh herbs: Rosemary, thyme, or parsley add vibrant, aromatic flavor.
- Don’t overcrowd: Leave space between potatoes for maximum browning and crispiness.
- Check doneness: Test with a fork; potatoes should be tender inside.
- Optional butter finish: Add butter after cooking for extra richness and flavor.
- Customize seasonings: Try garlic powder, smoked paprika, or Italian herbs for different flavor profiles.
Storing Instructions
- Refrigerator: Store cooled potatoes in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the Ninja Foodi, air fryer, or oven at 320°F for 5–7 minutes to restore crispiness.
- Freezing: While not ideal for maintaining crispiness, cooked potatoes can be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge and reheat before serving.
