If you love crispy potatoes with that golden brown outside and soft inside, these Air Fryer Potato Wedges are about to become your go-to easy side dish.
First things first: Wash and slice your russet potatoes on a cutting board using a sharp knife. Cut into similar size wedges so they cook evenly.
Place wedges in a large bowl and cover with cold water (or ice water). This extra step removes excess starch and helps create crispier potato wedges. Let them soak for 10 minutes, then drain and rinse. Dry thoroughly using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel.
Toss the wedges with oil, seasoning salt, and salt until evenly coated.
Place wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding for maximum crispiness.
Cook at 400°F for 18 minutes, flipping halfway through cook time. Remove once golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining wedges.
