Crispy Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes
Ingredients
-
4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes – ideal for their buttery texture and golden finish
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted – gives a rich flavor without oversalting
-
2 cloves garlic, finely crushed – infuses the potatoes with a warm, savory aroma
-
1 tablespoon olive oil – helps the skins crisp up beautifully in the air fryer
-
1 teaspoon each of chopped fresh parsley, rosemary, and thyme – adds a fragrant, earthy blend
-
Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste – enhances the overall flavor
Instructions
-
Prep the potatoes: Wash the potatoes and dry thoroughly. Slice thin slits across each potato, stopping just before the bottom so they stay intact—like a fan. A pair of chopsticks on either side can help prevent slicing all the way through.
-
Flavor mixture: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic and chopped herbs.
-
Season and oil: Brush each potato generously with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper.
-
Air fry: Place the potatoes into your air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 20–25 minutes, brushing with the butter-herb mixture halfway through, until the edges are golden and crispy and the insides are soft.
-
Garnish and serve: Drizzle any remaining herb butter over the top and sprinkle with a little extra fresh parsley before serving.
