Recipe Ingredients

• Mini potatoes– I love using mini potatoes, but feel free to use your choice of potato. Mini potatoes come in various packs- there’s gold, red, white, and assorted colors. I find the mini ones easier to cut up rather than a large potato.
• Olive oil- Gets the potatoes greased up when tossing with the seasoning. This will help hold all of the delicious flavor to each potato cube. You can also use avocado oil or ghee in this recipe if you would like. If you do use ghee, make sure it is melted!
• Garlic powder & paprika– The best flavor combo for home fries. The paprika provides a great, subtle spice. Garlic powder is ALWAYS a must.
• Salt & pepper- Extra seasoning.

How To Make

• Step 1 

  • Cut the mini potatoes into halves or fourths, depending on each potatoes’ size. 

• Step 2

  • Place the cut potatoes into a large bowl of cold water. Cover and let sit for 10-15 minutes.

• Step 3

  • Pour out the water and pat the potatoes dry. 

• Step 4

  • Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the bowl and toss. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated. 

• Step 5

  • Add potatoes to the air fryer and cook at 400 degrees F for 20-30 minutes. Check on them frequently and toss. You may want to cook them longer if you like crispy potatoes. 

Recipe FAQ’s

• What Are Home Fries? 

  • A basic potato dish, often made in a skillet. Home fries use chunked, sliced, wedged, or diced potatoes that are sometimes unpeeled and may have been par-cooked by boiling, baking, steaming, or microwaving. The air fryer is the best and easiest method to make home fries. 

• What Can I Serve These With? 

  • These make a great breakfast side. I recommend serving these with your preferred style of egg and breakfast protein. Try my Instant Pot Bacon or Sausages in the Air Fryer. 

• Can These Be Reheated? 

  • Absolutely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When you are ready to reheat, throw them in the air fryer at 400 degrees F for 5-10 minutes. 

• What Dip Would Go With Vegan Home Fries? 

  • Ketchup is my go-to for these. If you are nightshade free, check out this Nightshade Free Ketchup.

• What Kind Of Air Fryer Do You Use?

  • I love this Ninja all in one air fryer. It is so simple to use and has multiple functions yet it only takes up one space on the counter.

• What Is The Key For Making Crispy Potatoes?

  • The key is to toss them throughout the cooking process to ensure they get extra crispy. 

Chef’s Tips

• Every 5 minutes or so, make sure you shake the air fryer basket! This ensures the potatoes cook evenly.
