Air Fried Potato Wedges

Terrence Roche
Adieu, french fries. We’ve cracked the code for air fryer potato wedges that are crispy outside, creamy on the inside and not soggy or limp. These air-fried potato wedges come out perfect every time, and it only takes one simple, additional step you might not think of to get them that way.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium potatoes about 1 lb, cut into wedges
  • 1 Tbsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp oil
  • 2 tsp seasoning blend of choice

Instructions
 

  • Use a clean scrubbie or potato brush to clean the potatoes of any excess dirt.
  • Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into thirds lengthwise at a slight angle to form the wedges. (Very large potatoes can be cut into 4 wedges per half.)
  • Cover the potato wedges in warm water (not cold water) and add baking soda and salt. Give a good stir and soak for 20 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and place back in the bowl. Dry the wedges with some paper towels. Then drizzle in the oil and add the seasoning blend evenly over the potatoes.
  • Air fry the seasoned potatoes at 400° for 20 minutes, shaking the air fryer basket every 5 minutes or so to get them evenly browned.
