Ingredients
- 1kg baby potatoes
- 2 Tbsp (32g) olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- flaky sea salt
- malt vinegar
- mayonnaise or aioli

- Pickled red onion
- Sour cream
- Fresh herbs to garnish
- Crispy shallots
Instructions
- Wash the potatoes, then place them into a pot of salted water. Cook until soft and easily pierced with a knife.
- Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet and use the bottom of a cup or mug to smash the potatoes to roughly 1cm in thickness. Don’t over-smash or you’ll end up with mashed potatoes.
- Mix the oil, garlic powder and pepper together then drizzle over the potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
- Remove the grill plate from inside your airfryer. Place the smashed potatoes directly into the base of air fryer basket in an even layer, and cook for 15-20 minutes at 195 degrees C, shaking halfway through, until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown.
- Drizzle liberally with malt vinegar, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
