Notes

  • The easiest way to cut potatoes into wedges is to cut a russet potato in half, lengthwise. Then cut teach half into halves lengthwise as well. You’ll end up with triangle-shaped pieces. Cut each in half again, into long wedges. 
  • Avoid crowding the basket to ensure that the potato wedges cook evenly. If there is too much overlap, the potatoes won’t crisp up from the trapped steam. Air fry in two batches if needed.
  • Try to cut the potatoes as evenly as possible, so everything cooks evenly. This prevents some potatoes from being overcooked or undercooked.
