Instructions
0 Pre-heat the air fryer. 1 While the air fryer is pre-heating, wash and dry potatoes, leaving the skin on. 2 Add the whole potatoes to the air fryer basket and cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. 8 Remove and check the potatoes are fork tender enough to be smashed. You do not want to over cook them. They will turn into mashed potatoes if they are too soft. 3 Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and smash with bottom of a glass, coffee cup or mason jar. Lightly press down on the potato until they're smashed to at least 1/2 inch thick. 4 While the potatoes are on the baking sheet, drizzle the olive oil and seasonings over the tops. 9 Place the potatoes back in the air fryer basket. Try not to overlap, you may need to work in two batches if you have larger potatoes and cannot fit them all. 7 Once returned to the air fryer, cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes until crispy and golden brown. For the chimichurri sauce: 6 Finely chop all ingredients and add to a small bowl with oil and vinegar. Mix together well and serve with potatoes.View original recipe
