Ingredients
Potatoes
1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
Seasoning
1.5 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning and salad dressing mix
1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Prepare Potatoes: Cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch chunks. For smaller potatoes, halve them and then quarter each half to achieve the desired size.
Clean and Dry: Rinse the potato chunks under cold water to remove excess starch, then place them in a bowl and thoroughly pat dry using paper towels to ensure crispiness during cooking.
Toss with Seasoning: Add the olive oil and dry ranch seasoning mix to the potatoes. Toss well to ensure each potato piece is evenly coated with the seasoning and oil for full flavor.
Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 5 minutes to prepare for cooking, ensuring the potatoes cook evenly and become crispy.
Cook Potatoes: Place the seasoned potatoes into the air fryer basket after preheating. Cook at 380°F for 10 minutes, shaking or tossing the potatoes after 5 minutes to promote even roasting and browning.
Notes
Make sure the potatoes are patted dry well to achieve maximum crispiness.
Adjust seasoning amount according to your taste preference or dietary requirements.
You can substitute Yukon Gold potatoes with red potatoes for a slightly different texture and flavor.
For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket and cook in batches if necessary.
Serve immediately for best texture, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
