Crispy Air Fryer Spanish Potato Wedges

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Air Fryer Spanish Potato Wedges.

1. Step 1

   Start by slicing your russet potatoes into eight equal wedges, making sure each one is no longer than five inches to keep them sturdy during cooking.

2. Step 2

   Next, soak the potato wedges in a bowl of hot tap water for about ten minutes.

3. Step 3

   This step helps to remove excess starch, ensuring your wedges turn out crispy.

4. Step 4

   After soaking, drain the water, give the potatoes a quick rinse, and gently pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any moisture.

5. Step 5

   While you’re prepping, preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

6. Step 6

   To prevent sticking, spray the air fryer basket with a light coat of cooking oil.

7. Step 7

   In a large mixing bowl, toss the dried potato wedges with a drizzle of vegetable oil until they’re well coated.

8. Step 8

   In a separate small bowl, combine chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, ground coriander, garlic powder, and a hint of ground cinnamon.

9. Step 9

   This spice blend adds a delightful kick to your wedges! Sprinkle the mixture over the potatoes and toss them again until every wedge is evenly coated in those vibrant flavors.

10. Step 10

    Carefully arrange the seasoned potato wedges in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them; if needed, cook in two batches for the best results.

11. Step 11

    Air fry the wedges for ten minutes, then open the fryer and use tongs to flip them over.

12. Step 12

    Continue cooking for another ten to fifteen minutes, or until they’re perfectly crispy and golden brown.

13. Step 13

    Once they’re done, sprinkle with salt to taste and serve them hot.
