Main Ingredients:
- 4 cups (950 ml) potatoes, about 2 pounds (907 grams)
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) grated Parmesan cheese

- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) dried parsley
Finishing Ingredients:
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice potatoes into uniform 1-inch cubes, ensuring each piece is roughly the same size to promote even cooking and crispy texture.
- Transfer potato cubes to a spacious mixing bowl, preparing them for seasoning and coating.
- Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes, ensuring complete and thorough coverage of each cube.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese across the potatoes, creating a rich and savory base layer of flavor.
- Dust the mixture with garlic powder, distributing the aromatic spice evenly throughout the potato cubes.
- Add chopped fresh parsley for a vibrant green color and herbaceous undertone.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the overall taste profile.
- Gently toss and mix all ingredients until every potato cube is uniformly coated with seasonings and oil.
- Arrange the seasoned potato cubes in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding to ensure crisp edges.
- Set the air fryer temperature to 375°F (190°C) and cook for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket midway through cooking to promote even browning.
- If your air fryer has limited capacity, prepare the potatoes in multiple batches to maintain optimal crispiness.
- Once golden brown and crispy, remove potatoes and serve immediately while hot and crunchy.
