Ingredients:
- 2 large potatoes (russet or baking potatoes work best)
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- Coarse salt, to taste
Instructions:
- Prep the Potatoes:
- Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly.
- Use a skewer or fork to prick holes all over the potatoes (this helps release steam during cooking).
- Season:
- Rub the potatoes with olive oil, making sure they are coated evenly.
- Sprinkle coarse salt generously over the potatoes. This step ensures a crunchy, flavorful skin.
- Air Fry:
- Preheat your air fryer to 190°C (375°F) for a few minutes.
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
- Cook for 50-60 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even crispiness.
- Check for Doneness:
- After 50 minutes, insert a skewer or fork into the center of the potato. If it goes through easily and the middle feels soft, they are done. If not, cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, checking periodically.
- Serve:
- Once done, remove the potatoes from the air fryer. The skin should be crispy, and the interior should be soft and fluffy.
- Serve with your favorite toppings like butter, sour cream, cheese, or chives.
Enjoy your perfectly crispy and fluffy air fryer jacket potatoes!
