Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Cooking instructions
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry. Prick each potato all over with a fork. (about 3 min)
- Rub the potatoes evenly with the oil, then sprinkle all over with the salt. (about 2 min)
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them. Air-fry at 400°F for 35 to 45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until the skins are deeply crisp and a fork slides easily into the centers. If using a thermometer, the centers should reach about 205°F for a fluffy texture. (about 45 min) — 400°F
- Rest the potatoes for 5 minutes, then split them open and serve. (about 5 min)
