Potatoes recipe poor in airfryer

Today in BiteMyRecipe We have prepared a recipe for poor potatoes in a airfryer, very easy and following the traditional recipe of the grandmother!

I have always liked to prepare poor potatoes with the oven or as a garnish for fish or meat in family meals.

You can also prepare the poor potatoes in the Thermomix but I prefer to use the air fryer.

This recipe for poor potatoes in air fryer is an adaptation of the Murcian recipe but in the Andalusian style as Karlos Arguiñano once prepared them.

The poor potatoes go with pepper, onion and egg because personally I think it gives it a lot of flavor.

Making poor potatoes is very easy and with the airfryer it's faster, healthier and much better than microwaving.

To cook this recipe for poor potatoes I have used a mold (optional) and my 5.5L air fryer, if you have a smaller one you may have to put less quantity.

I recommend other recipes with potatoes in an air fryer such as the recipe for scrambled potatoes, cod and aubergines in air fryer or the recipe for hasselback potatoes in air fryer

Tips for a good recipe for poor-quality potatoes in a airfryer

• When I'm in a hurry, I usually rinse the potato very well and cut it into wedges with the skin
• Stir the potatoes several times while they cook so they brown on all sides.
• If you don't like chewing garlic, you'd better use garlic powder.
• The egg could be made in the air fryer too but I prefer it grilled
• The final touch of the dish is to break the egg and let the yolk fall on top of the poor potatoes
