Ingredients

  • peelings from 2 pounds (900g) of potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • generous pinches of salt and black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400F / 200c.
  • Place your potato peelings in a large bowl. Add the oil and seasonings and toss together well.
  • Place the peelings in the air fryer basket once preheated. Set to cook at 400F /200c for 10 minutes.
  • Shake the basket a couple of times during cooking and check for doneness from 8 minutes. Once cooked, they should be golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • Nutritional values are an estimate only.
  • Wash the potatoes well to remove any loose dirt before peeling.
  • If you are not making potato peel chips straight away, store them in cold water in the fridge to stop them going brown.
  • Pat dry the skins before oiling and seasoning them to help them get nice and crispy.
  • Don't go too overboard on the salt, you can always add more when you serve them.
  • Toss the air fryer basket several times during cooking so that the peels crisp evenly.
  • The cooking time is a guide, as air fryer models can vary. The peelings should be golden brown and crispy when fully cooked.
