Get ready to take your snacking to the next level with these crispy and tangy air fryer salt and vinegar potato gems. With just a few simple ingredients, including potatoes, parmesan cheese, and a touch of flour, you can create a mouth-watering treat that's perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

5 potatoes
1000g
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
20g
2 tbsp all-purpose white wheat flour
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Cut the potatoes into small cubic shapes or gems approximately 1 cm in size.

2. Boil the Potatoes:
- Place the potato gems in a large pot filled with cold water.
- Add a generous pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the water to a boil and let the potatoes cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they become slightly tender but still firm.
- Drain the potatoes and let them cool for a few minutes.
3. Season and Coat:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and all-purpose white wheat flour.
- Add the cooled potato gems to the bowl and toss them lightly to coat evenly with the cheese and flour mixture.
4. Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (392°F) for about 5 minutes.
5. Air Fry the Potato Gems:
- Arrange the potato gems in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Cook them for about 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
- The potato gems should be a golden brown and crispy when done.
6. Season with Salt and Vinegar:
- Remove the potato gems from the air fryer and place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Sprinkle with sea salt to taste.
- Drizzle with vinegar (white vinegar or malt vinegar works well for a classic flavor). Toss gently to coat the potato gems evenly.
7. Serve:
- Serve the air fryer salt and vinegar potato gems hot as a delicious snack or side dish.
- Enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauce or simply on their own.

Tips:

- 1. For a more intense vinegar flavor, soak the potatoes longer or add a splash of vinegar midway through cooking.

- 2. Make sure the potato gems are dry before coating with flour to ensure they crisp up properly in the air fryer.

- 3. Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to ensure each gem gets crispy.

- 4. Add your favorite herbs or spices to personalize your potato gems. Rosemary, garlic powder, or smoked paprika can add an extra flavor boost.

- 5. Serve with your favorite dip, such as sour cream, ketchup, or a tangy aioli, for an added treat.

Air fryer salt and vinegar potato gems are a fantastic way to enjoy a crunchy, flavorful snack without the guilt of deep frying. With the added depth of parmesan cheese and the unique tanginess from the vinegar, these gems will quickly become a household favorite. Follow these tips to achieve perfect results every time, and don't be afraid to put your own twist on this versatile recipe. Enjoy!
