Making oven-roasted/ air fried potatoes is so incredibly simple that it’s my go-to side dish now. I learned it from my son as he is always into Tiktok inspired recipes and now I make them as all of my family enjoy it equally. You can enjoy it as a game night snack with any kind of dip.
Tips
If you’re using small potatoes, you can cut them in half or if they’re tiny, you can just give them a little poke with a fork or knife before baking to allow the steam to escape.
While peeled the potatoes before roasting, you definitely do not need to peel them! I personally love the look and color of red skin potatoes too but my kids don’t enjoy the skin so I peeled mine.
If you don’t want to omit boiling potatoes then add extra 10 minutes in baking time.
Since different potatoes have different cooking time keep checking it while cooking with a fork.
