Mojo potatoes cooked in an air fryer are a delicious, healthier alternative to deep-fried potatoes, offering a crisp exterior and a soft, flavorful interior. Infused with a blend of garlic, spices, and a hint of citrus, these potatoes make for a fantastic side dish or snack. Here’s how you can make Mojo Potatoes in your air fryer:
Ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes, scrubbed clean (russet or Yukon gold work well)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Juice of 1 lime
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Slice the potatoes into wedges or 1/2 inch thick slices.
- Soak the potato slices in water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This step helps in achieving a crispier texture.
