Ingredients

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • ½ cup parmesan cheese grated
  • Chopped parsley garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the Air Fryer to 380 degrees F.
  • Wash and dry the potatoes with a kitchen towel.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes vertically into halves, then slice each half into 4 pieces, resulting in a total of 8 slices per potato. Repeat the same with the remaining sweet potatoes.
  • Transfer the sliced sweet potato wedges to a medium bowl. Pour in the olive oil, add paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the wedges and toss until well coated.
  • Transfer the sweet potato wedges to the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking.
  • Once done, garnish the sweet potato wedges with chopped parsley and serve while they're still warm.

Notes

  • Soak the wedges in cold water for about 30 minutes before air frying. This helps remove excess starch and promotes crispiness.
  • Pat the wedges completely dry after soaking to enhance crispiness during air frying.
  • Preheat the air fryer for a few minutes to ensure a consistent cooking temperature.
  • Arrange the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket, allowing proper air circulation for even cooking.
