Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb. sweet potatoes or ½ Kg.
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. black pepper
- ½ tsp. garlic powder
- ½ tsp. paprika or red chilli powder
- ½ tsp. Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into small, even cubes of about ½ inch. Try to keep them similar in size so they cook evenly. The smaller the cubes are, the lower will be the air frying time.
- In a bowl, toss the cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and Italian seasoning. Meanwhile, preheat the air fryer to 200C or 400F for 4 minutes.
- Spread the seasoned sweet potato cubes in a single layer in the basket. Cook for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket midway through, until the cubes are golden and slightly crisp on the outside. You may need a minute or two more if your cubes are larger.
- Serve warm as a side, or toss them into a salad or grain bowl. These sweet potato cubes are delicious and really need nothing much to do. Give them a try.
Notes
1. Cut the cubes evenly so they cook uniformly.
2. Don’t overcrowd the basket, if needed, cook in batches for the best texture. I can do 1 lb. at one go in my air fryer.
3. For a Indian touch to the spices, you can add a pinch of cumin or sprinkle some chaat masala after cooking.
4. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days in air fryer container and reheat in the air fryer before serving. They are the crispiest when fresh though.
5. For a sweeter version, add maple syrup and cinnamon to the seasonings.
