FAQ
Q: Do I need to poke holes in the potatoes before air frying?
A: It’s not necessary in the air fryer since the hot air circulates well, but you can if you prefer.
Q: Can I use other types of potatoes?
A: Russets are best for a fluffy inside, but Yukon Golds and red potatoes also work—just adjust cooking time.
Q: Can I cook more than 4 at once?
A: Yes, but don’t overcrowd the basket. Air circulation is key to crispy skin.
Q: How do I know when they’re done?
A: Insert a fork or knife into the center—it should slide in easily with no resistance.
