Notes
*Potato - Use starchy potatoes like russet, Yukon gold or baby potatoes. Helpful tips
Slicing potatoes evenly - Make sure the thickness of your potatoes is relatively uniform to ensure that they cook at the same rate.
Peeling potatoes - It comes down to personal preference; you can leave the skin on or peel it.
Cooking time - Will hugely depend on the size and model of your air fryer. If this is your first time making this recipe, keep an eye and check on them every 5 minutes or so to prevent them from burning.
Storing leftovers - Potato slices can be refrigerated for 5 days, or frozen for up to 3 months. Allow frozen potatoes to thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating in the oven or air fryer.
