Preparation
  1. Grate the potatoes using a box grater or food processor.

  4. In a mixing bowl, toss the grated potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings.
Cooking
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  2. Spread the potato mixture evenly in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd.
  3. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
Serving

Notes

For best results, use starchy potatoes, don't skip the soaking step, and avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to a month.
