Your potatoes will be "fried" with the help of hot air  and by following the following 4 tips, you will ensure the best possible result!

1. Cut the potatoes into thin pieces

The thinner the pieces, the faster they will cook and the crispier they will be!

2. Calculate the quantity correctly

To achieve the best possible result, fill the basket with potatoes just enough so that they cover the surface but are not so many that they cannot be uniformly cooked and ultimately crispy.

3. Let them soak in water or boil them in hot water!

If you "wash" them, the excess starch will be removed from the potatoes and you will have a better result.

Alternatively, if you want to try something different, you can boil them for a few minutes in salted water. The textured surface that forms on the potatoes will create the ideal condition for a crispy crust to form.

4. Add oil and spices

Even if they are not ''fried'' in oil, a small amount of olive oil will make them crispier. Add paprika or any other spice you want, but save the salt and oregano for the end. 

#SkroutzTip 

Dry them well before adding olive oil! 

Stir them during cooking.

1 to 3 times is enough to cook them evenly. 

5. Enjoy!
