Potato is one food that tastes good however it’s cooked. Air fryer diced potatoes are one of them. They are perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside which are packed with flavors.

These delicious air fryer diced potatoes can be served as an appetizer, snack, or side dish. You can make this recipe extra crispy with the skin on, but it’s not mandatory. I like mine without skin that is super crispy too.

For making air fryer potatoes you can use the fresh potatoes or the frozen ones. Both will work well with this recipe. As we all know potatoes are a versatile dish and can be cooked in many different ways, air fryer potato wedges are one of my favorite. (link)

How to avoid uneven cooking in the air fryer?

Cooking with an air fryer is easy and difficult at the same time. It’s because you can’t cook a whole lot at one time. If you overload the air fryer basket the food the result is unevenly cooked food. To avoid this problem, you should cook the food in batches and toss/flip the food halfway through the cooking process.

Here are some of the frequently asked questions:

 

Why do you Soak potatoes in water before air frying?

Potatoes are good either you soak them in water or not before cooking. Soaking the potatoes in water helps to release starch which will make the potatoes soft and tender in texture.

If you have time then you can soak the potatoes in water for 30 minutes before cooking.

How do I cook frozen diced potatoes in an air fryer?

Thaw the frozen diced potatoes before cooking. And rest of the cooking process is the same. Mix with the desired spices and cook at 200C/400F for 25-30 minutes.

Can you fry diced canned potatoes?

Of course, you can fry diced canned potatoes. In fact, they are already cooked, so you can air fry them and make them crispier and more delicious.

Can I make these sliced/rounds instead of diced?

Yes, you can cut the potatoes into any shape of your liking. There is no compulsion that the potatoes should only be diced.

How to store these air fryer diced potatoes?

Before storing these potatoes let them cool completely. And transfer the potatoes to an air-tight container and store them in the refrigerator. They are good for 3-4 days.
