Ingredients

1 kg Maris Piper potatoes , peeled and halved or quartered
4 tbsp rapeseed or sunflower oil
sea salt flakes

Method

Put the potatoes in a large pan and cover with water. Season generously with salt, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 mins, until just tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry for 5 mins.
Heat the air-fryer to 200C. Tip the potatoes back into the warm pan, then shake a few times to rough up the edges. Drizzle over the oil, season, then toss again to coat. Transfer to the air-fryer and roast for 30-35 mins, shaking the potatoes halfway through and turning with tongs if you need to, until golden and crunchy. Serve sprinkled with the sea salt.
