# Components:
→ Potatoes
01 - 4 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed
→ Seasoning
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
→ Optional Toppings
07 - 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (omit for vegan)
08 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
09 - 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
# Directions:
01 - Carefully insert a long wooden or metal skewer through the length of each potato, ensuring it runs centrally from end to end.
02 - With the skewer secured, slice the potato in a continuous spiral motion using a sharp knife, rotating as you cut. Gently stretch the potato along the skewer to evenly separate the spiraled sections.
03 - Combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and ground black pepper in a small bowl to form the seasoning mix.
04 - Brush or rub the seasoning mixture thoroughly over each spiraled potato, ensuring coverage between each layer.
05 - Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for 3 minutes to ensure optimal crisping.
06 - Place the skewered potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching for even airflow.
07 - Air-fry for 20 to 25 minutes, turning the skewers halfway through, until the potatoes become golden brown and crisp.
08 - If desired, garnish with Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, and chili flakes before serving.
