Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes

Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes

If you are a potato fan like me, you will love this Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes recipe. Seasoned to perfection, crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside and unique-looking potatoes are the side dish of everyone’s dreams. Plus, it’s way easier to make this fancy side dish than you might think! Essentially baked potatoes but sliced into thin, even segments that create a fanlike shape.

Why are they called Hasselback potatoes?
Hasselback potatoes got their name from the restaurant in Stockholm, Swedish where they were invented. The restaurant was called Hasselbacken and these potatoes were first served there in 1953.

Potatoes
Potatoes contain vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C and potassium. They may provide health benefits, depending on how they are prepared. Read more about health benefits of the potatoes: “Potatoes 101: Nutrition Facts and Health Effects”.

What is the best type of potatoes to use?
I found that using the right kind of potato for this recipe was key. The Russet potato was the best choice because of its starchy flesh and creamy texture. If you choose to leave the skin on, make sure your potatoes are washed well before cooking. I like to leave the skin on because the potato skin has more nutrients than the interior of the potato.

Large potato cubes for 10 to 20 minutes, until fork tender.

Baby potatoes or diced potatoes for about 15 minutes, until fork tender.

Whole large potatoes for about 30 minutes, until fork tender.

It is up to your personal preference whether or not you peel potatoes for potato salad. If you choose to leave the skin on, make sure your potatoes are washed well before cooking. I like to leave the skin on because the potato skin has more nutrients than the interior of the potato.
