Ingredients:
2 large potatoes (peeled and cubed)
1 tsp garlic granules
1 tsp onion granules
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper (to taste)
4 tbsp cornflour (add more as needed)
Cooking oil spray
Garlic Butter:
100 g butter
2 tsp garlic granules
Fresh parsley (a handful, chopped)
Directions:
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
Peel and cube 2 large potatoes, then boil them until they’re tender and easy to pierce with a fork. Drain the potatoes completely.
Step 2: Season and Mash
In a mixing bowl, season the boiled potatoes with garlic granules, onion granules, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mash the potatoes until smooth, then add 4 tbsp of cornflour. Mix well until you form a thick dough. Adjust the cornflour for the right consistency.
Step 3: Shape into Potato Balls
Roll the mashed potato mixture into small, bite-sized balls. Place them into your air fryer basket, and lightly spray with cooking oil.
Step 4: Air Fry to Perfection
Air-fry the potato balls at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Shake the air fryer basket every few minutes to ensure even cooking.
Step 5: Make the Garlic Butter
While your potato pops are frying, prepare the garlic butter. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 100g butter with garlic granules and fresh chopped parsley in 30-second intervals until fully melted.
Step 6: Coat with Garlic Butter
Once the potato pops are golden and crispy, transfer them to a serving bowl. Drizzle the garlic butter over the top, and gently toss the potato pops to coat them evenly.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve the Garlic Potato Pops hot, pouring any remaining garlic butter over for an extra boost of flavor. They’re the ultimate crispy, garlicky snack!
