A quick and healthier way to enjoy crispy hash browns using an air fryer.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- optional garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika for extra flavor
Instructions
- Peel and shred the potatoes using a box grater or a food processor. Rinse the shredded potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch.
- Pat the shredded potatoes dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings. Mix well to ensure even coating.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket in an even layer. Avoid overcrowding for the best results.
- Cook for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time. Adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of crispiness.
- Once golden brown and crispy, carefully remove the hash browns from the air fryer and serve hot.
Notes
For extra crispiness, ensure the potatoes are completely dry before air frying.
