Roast Potato Showdown: Oven vs Air Fryer!
Who doesn’t love the crunch of a perfectly roasted potato? We put the oven and air fryer head-to-head to see which one delivers the crispiest, tastiest spuds!
First up, the secret weapon: Maris Piper potatoes. With their dry matter content, they promise that fluffy inside and crunchy exterior we all crave. Prep your potatoes by peeling, chopping evenly, and parboiling them to start the crispy magic.
**Air Fryer Method**: Preheat to 180°C, coat those potatoes in rich goose fat, sprinkle with rosemary salt, and let them sizzle for about 44 minutes. The result? Surprisingly crunchy with a nice crisp, but does it outshine the classic oven method?
**Oven Method**: Set to 200°C, melt that goose fat goodness, and let the aroma take over! After a toasty time for around 50 minutes, these roasties emerge with an outer crunch that wins hearts every time. Verdict? That oven crackle and fluff cannot be beat!
Final Scores? Air Fryer: 8/10. Oven: 10/10. Time to plan your next roast and give these a try! What’s your go-to method for roast potatoes? Share your tips in the comments! 🥔✨
