Use your air fryer to create absolutely knockout potato wedges and roasties that are fluffy inside and super-crisp on the outside. These mini ones are lightly spiced, just begging to be dipped into mayo or ketchup. Great for a party.

- Serves 2
- Hands-on time 10 min, air frying time 20 min
Ingredients
- 600g new potatoes
- 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Ketchup, mayo or your dipping sauce of choice to serve
Method
- Quarter each potato lengthways, trying to keep each wedge an equal size (so any smaller potatoes might only need to be halved). Put the wedges in a bowl of cold water as you work, swishing the water around them to remove excess starch. Drain well and pat dry.
- Mix the remaining ingredients together to make a loose paste, then spoon over the wedges. Give everything a toss to coat evenly, then set aside for 5 minutes.
- Heat the air fryer to 200°C. Put the wedges in the air fryer basket, ideally in a single layer with room around each one for ultimate crispiness. Cook for 18-20 minutes, giving them a shake halfway. Serve with plenty of sauce for dipping.

Air fryers always work best when the food is in a single, even layer with a bit of space between each piece. You can scale this recipe up and down easily, but work in batches if your air fryer isn’t big enough. We used a 4.2 litre air fryer, which just about fit the wedges in.
