The most popular holiday food at Thanksgiving is the baked potato, so how long should they be air fried before serving?
The Process
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Trim the potatoes and cut into circles using a round cookie cutter. Place the potatoes in a bowl and cover with hot water. Allow the potatoes to sit for about 10 minutes to release the starch. Drain the water and place the potatoes on a paper towel. Pat the potatoes dry with another paper towel. Lightly brush the paper towel with oil. Season the potatoes with kosher salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat a small amount of oil on medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, without moving, for about 4 minutes. Flip the potatoes and continue cooking until golden, about 4 to 6 more minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a sheet pan and place in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes and remove the pan from the oven. Transfer the potatoes to a cooling rack for about 5 minutes before serving.
How To Store Air Fried Potatoes
Thanks to the popularity of Pinterest, the air fryer has been a craze in many people’s homes. The air fryer allows you to cook your food faster, and in an air-tight chamber. It is also a healthier option than deep-frying your food. One downside is that the food becomes drier than if you deep fry it. The benefit to baking potatoes is that you are able to maintain their quality and texture, just like you do in the oven. Air-frying is also a great way to cook foods like fish, meat, and vegetables, which are often difficult to cook in other ways. So, the next time you want to make a baked potato, try this method!
How Long Can You Deep Fry?
As you may be aware, there are some limitations to air frying. This means that it can take longer to cook than deep frying, and some dishes may not get the same crispy and delicious results as deep frying. However, it is possible to make the best of this method of cooking. The following article will help you decide how long you should deep fry or air fry foods.
Air Fry Your Potatoes
While it might seem like a good idea to air fry your potatoes, this method actually ends up drying them out. Air frying can actually cause the potatoes to get harder. They also become more likely to lose their nutrients as they sit. For this reason, there are better ways to air fry potatoes. One way is to use the oven. Bake your potatoes on a baking sheet at 450°F for 25 minutes. The oven will gently cook the potatoes while allowing them to retain their moisture. Another way is to use a commercial air fryer. A commercial air fryer uses warm air to cook your potatoes, and you can adjust the amount of heat, and thus the crispness, that you want. If you don’t have an air fryer, a regular cast iron skillet is an alternative. Just make sure to watch the potatoes closely to make sure they don’t brown too much.
Why Cook the Potatoes Before Deep Frying?
You can air fry potatoes for breakfast! This is a healthy and easy way to start your day. The key is to cook the potatoes before deep frying. Cook them first so that they can absorb all the oil. Then, put them in the deep fryer to make a crispy, golden brown potato that’s perfectly crisp.
