Ingredients

  • 2 small Idaho russet potatoes (about 8 ounces each), scrubbed with peels on

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

  • Freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Directions

  • Using a mandolin, slice the potatoes into VERY THIN rounds (1/16-inch thick).
  • Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl and fill it with cold water. Rinse until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
  • Spread the potatoes on paper towels or clean kitchen towels to pat them dry. Ensure they are thoroughly dry.
  • Return the dry potatoes to the bowl and add olive oil, salt, and black pepper if desired. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 325°F.
  • Spread the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overlap. Air fry for 20 minutes, tossing every 5-7 minutes, until dark golden and crisp.
