- 2 slices Butter (approx. 20g)
- Generous amount of Parmesan cheese powder (approx. 2-3 Tbsp)
- A pinch of Salt
- A sprinkle of Parsley powder (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
To create your delicious accordion potatoes, first, grab two chopsticks. These will act as a guide, preventing your knife from cutting all the way through the potato, ensuring evenly sliced results.
Step 2
Wash the potatoes thoroughly. Place a potato on top of the chopsticks, then carefully slice it as thinly as possible, creating a fan-like pattern. The chopsticks will stop your knife from cutting through completely, keeping the potato intact. This thin slicing is key to the accordion effect.
Step 3
Once sliced, soak the potatoes in cold water for about 20 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch, contributing to a crispier texture when cooked.
Step 4
While the potatoes are soaking, melt the butter by microwaving it for about 40 seconds until it’s liquid. This will make it easier to spread the butter evenly between the potato slices.
Step 5
After 20 minutes, drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with paper towels. Ensuring they are dry is crucial for achieving a crispy exterior. Next, microwave the potatoes for about 5 minutes to pre-cook them slightly. Then, generously brush the melted butter into the cuts of each potato slice. The butter adds rich flavor and helps them crisp up beautifully.
Step 6
Preheat your air fryer. Place the buttered potatoes into the preheated air fryer and bake at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 40 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. For even cooking, you can flip them halfway through. Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your potatoes and your air fryer’s performance.
Step 7
Carefully transfer the beautifully baked accordion potatoes to a serving plate. While they are still warm, sprinkle a generous amount of Parmesan cheese powder all over the potatoes, letting it get into the cuts.
Step 8
Finally, add a sprinkle of fresh parsley powder for a lovely garnish. This completes the visually appealing and incredibly tasty accordion potato bake.
Step 9
Here you have it – the ‘Accordion Potato’! It’s perfect as a delightful brunch option, a fun and healthy snack for kids, or an irresistible appetizer alongside a cold beer. Its unique appearance and delicious taste are sure to impress!
