Air Fryer Garlic Roasted Fingerling Potatoes
Description
Halved fingerling potatoes with crispy golden cut sides and real roasted garlic flavor. Garlic powder goes in at the start and fresh minced garlic in the last four minutes — so it toasts sweet instead of burning bitter.
Ingredients
- 1 pound fingerling potatoes, sliced in half lengthwise
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Cut the fingerling potatoes in half lengthwise. Add them to a large bowl with the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, dried rosemary, and dried thyme. Mix well, coating the potatoes.
- Pour them into the air fryer basket in a single layer, cut side down. Set the temperature to 390 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 12-15 minutes. Shake the basket at the halfway point.
- With 4 minutes of cook time remaining, add the minced fresh garlic, toss quickly, and return the basket to finish. The garlic should be golden, not brown.
- Check that the potatoes are fork-tender and the cut sides are golden. Toss with fresh parsley, plate, serve, and enjoy.
Equipment
- Cooking Spray
- Parchment Paper, optional
Notes
For a sweeter, mellower version, add 6–8 whole unpeeled garlic cloves to the basket at the start and squeeze them over the potatoes to serve. For garlic butter potatoes, skip step 3 and toss the hot potatoes with 2 tablespoons melted butter mixed with the raw minced garlic.
