Let’s get cooking and bring some extra flavor to your mornings!
Ingredients:
450 g (1 lb) floury potatoes such as maris piper or russet, peeled and chopped into 1-inch cubes
2 tbsp oil
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp paprika
1 red bell pepper chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 green bell pepper chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 onion peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
Instructions
1. Place the potatoes, oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika in a bowl and toss together.
2. Transfer the potatoes to the air fryer basket (reserving any remaining seasoned oil in the bowl) and cook the potatoes on the air fry setting at 200C/400F for 10 minutes.
3. Add the peppers and onion to the bowl you tossed the potatoes in. There should still be a few dregs of seasoned oil in the bottom. Toss the peppers and onion in the bowl so any remaining oil and seasoning coats them.
4. After potatoes have been in the air fryer for 10 minutes give the basket a shake. Add the peppers and onions in and shake again.
5. Cook the potatoes, peppers and onions in the air fryer for further 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
6. Check the potatoes are done by sliding a knife into one of the potatoes. It should glide in easily. Cook for a few minutes longer if needed, then serve.
