Air Fryer Patatas Bravas: Crispy Spanish Potato Wedges

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds russet potatoes, unpeeled
• cooking spray
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.13 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• salt to taste

Instructions

1. Cut the potatoes lengthwise into 8 wedges each, ensuring they are under 5 inches long to prevent breakage during cooking.
2. Place the potato wedges in a bowl filled with hot tap water and let them soak for approximately 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes, rinse them thoroughly, and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
3. Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking oil spray to prevent sticking.
4. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil. In a separate small bowl, mix together chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, garlic powder, and cinnamon. Sprinkle this spice blend over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly. Transfer the seasoned potatoes to the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook in two batches if necessary for even cooking.
5. Air fry the potato wedges for 10 minutes. Carefully open the air fryer and use tongs to flip each wedge. Continue cooking until the wedges are crispy and beautifully golden brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes longer. Season with salt to taste and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
