Garlic Potato Pops Recipe
Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, these Garlic Potato Pops are seasoned with garlic, paprika, and herbs, then air-fried until golden brown and tossed in delicious garlic herb butter.
35 minutes
4 servings
Air Fryer

Ingredients
For the Potato Pops:
- 3 medium potatoes (about 500 g), peeled and boiled
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper (optional)
- Olive oil spray, for crisping
For the Garlic Herb Butter:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes, cut them into chunks, and boil in salted water for 15 to 20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain thoroughly and allow them to cool slightly so excess moisture evaporates.
Step 2: Make the Potato Dough
Place the boiled potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Add salt, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and cornstarch. Mash everything together using a fork until the mixture forms a smooth, soft dough without large lumps.
Step 3: Shape the Potato Pops
Take small portions of the potato mixture and roll them between your palms into bite-sized balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Arrange them on a clean plate, keeping them evenly sized for consistent cooking.
Step 4: Air Fry Until Crispy
Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (200°C) for 3 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil.
Arrange the potato balls in a single layer, leaving space between them. Lightly spray the tops with oil.
Air fry for 15 to 20 minutes, gently shaking the basket halfway through, until the potato pops are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 5: Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter
While the potato pops are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant, without browning. Stir in the parsley, Italian herbs, and salt. Remove from heat.
Step 6: Coat the Potato Pops
Transfer the freshly cooked potato pops into a large bowl. Pour the warm garlic herb butter over them. Using two wooden spoons, gently toss until every potato pop is evenly coated with the flavorful butter.
Step 7: Serve
Serve immediately while hot and crispy. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
Tips for Perfect Garlic Potato Pops
- Drain potatoes well: Excess moisture can make the dough sticky and prevent crisping.
- Adjust the texture: If the dough is too soft, add another tablespoon of cornstarch.
- Avoid overcrowding: Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even browning.
- Serve immediately: The potato pops are crispiest right after air frying.
- Use fresh garlic: Freshly minced garlic gives the butter coating a richer flavor.

**Air Fryer Spicy Garlic Shrimp 🍤🔥**

Juicy, tender, and packed with bold garlic, ginger, lemon, and spicy flavor! These whole shrimp turn beautifully golden and slightly caramelized in the air fryer, with a delicious herb garlic coating. Perfect for a quick and flavorful dinner!

**Ingredients**

- 14 medium to jumbo whole raw shrimp, heads, shells, and tails intact
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 4 garlic cloves, finely minced
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 1½ tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon water or lemon juice, if needed for the finishing sauce

**Instructions**

**Step 1: Prepare the Air Fryer**

Pull out the air fryer basket and place a perforated parchment liner inside. Make sure the liner fits properly. Do not preheat the air fryer with loose parchment inside.

**Step 2: Prepare the Shrimp**

Rinse the whole shrimp if needed and pat them dry with paper towels. Keep the heads, shells, legs, and tails intact. Place the shrimp in a large rectangular glass dish.

**Step 3: Add the Flavor**

Grate the fresh ginger directly over the shrimp. Add the hot sauce, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

**Step 4: Season the Shrimp**

Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

**Step 5: Mix the Marinade**

Cover the dish with a secure lid and gently shake or tilt it twice until every shrimp is evenly coated with the garlic, ginger, lemon, and herb mixture.

**Step 6: Load the Air Fryer**

Arrange the marinated shrimp in a single layer inside the parchment-lined basket. Spoon a little of the remaining marinade over the shrimp without adding excess liquid.

**Step 7: Air Fry**

Set the air fryer to **195°C (383°F)** and cook for approximately **9 minutes**, depending on shrimp size and your air fryer. Check for doneness and add time if necessary. The shrimp should turn coral-orange, with opaque flesh that reaches 145°F (63°C).

**Step 8: Plate the Shrimp**

Carefully remove the basket. Using silicone-tipped tongs, transfer the cooked shrimp to a serving plate and arrange them in a beautiful circular mound.

**Step 9: Add the Finishing Sauce**

Pour a small amount of the hot garlic and parsley cooking juices over the shrimp. Use only juices that have been fully cooked, or boil any reserved raw marinade separately before serving.

**Step 10: Serve and Enjoy**

Serve immediately while warm and juicy. The shells are lightly caramelized, the garlic is fragrant, and every bite is bursting with spicy lemon flavor!

**Cooking Time:** Approximately 9 minutes

**Prep Time:** 10 minutes

**Servings:** 2 to 3

**Tip:** Keep the shells and heads on while cooking for extra flavor and moisture. Avoid overcrowding the basket so the shrimp cook evenly.

Air Fryer Hash Brown Breakfast Cups

These come out crispy and deeply golden around the edges, with a creamy, cheesy center. I adapted the recipe in your image specifically for the air fryer and left out the bacon.

Ingredients
10 oz frozen shredded hash browns, partially thawed
4 tbsp mayonnaise
3 tbsp sour cream
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp ranch seasoning
1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp black pepper
Cooking oil spray
2 tbsp chopped green onions or chives
Extra sour cream, for serving
Instructions
Prepare the hash browns: Partially thaw the shredded hash browns. Squeeze out excess moisture with clean paper towels so the cups become crispy.
Make the filling: Add the hash browns to a large bowl. Mix in mayonnaise, sour cream, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, ranch seasoning, salt, and black pepper until everything is evenly coated.
Shape the cups: Generously spray silicone muffin cups or small air-fryer-safe muffin molds with cooking oil. Divide the hash brown mixture between about 6 cups. Press the mixture firmly against the bottom and slightly up the sides, leaving a shallow indentation in the center.
Air fry: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 3 minutes. Place the molds in the basket without overcrowding.
Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tops are golden and the outside edges are dark golden brown and crispy. Exact cooking time will depend on your air fryer and the size of the cups.
Extra crispy finish: Increase the temperature to 375°F (190°C) and air fry for another 2 to 4 minutes, watching closely so the edges don't burn.
Let the cups rest in their molds for 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully lift them out.
Add a small spoonful of sour cream in the center and finish with chopped green onions or chives.
Press the hash browns firmly against the sides of each mold and leave the center slightly lower. This creates those crispy, shredded potato edges with the soft cheesy center and sour cream sitting neatly on top.

Ingredients
Whole potatoes (the video features Tasteful Selections Sunburst Blend, specifically using red and yellow varieties). Cooking oil spray. Salt and black pepper. Ketchup (for dipping). EquipmentGhost-shaped cookie cutter. Metal straw or small circular tool (for facial features). Air fryer (the video features an Aria brand air fryer).
Instructions
Slice the potatoes lengthwise into flat, even slabs. Press the ghost-shaped cookie cutter into the potato slices to stamp out the ghost shapes. Use a metal straw to punch out two eyes and a mouth on each potato ghost. Submerge the potato cutouts in a bowl of water to soak off excess starch. Remove the potatoes from the water and pat them thoroughly dry on paper towels. Transfer the dry potatoes to a bowl, spray them with cooking oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss with a spoon to ensure they are evenly coated. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Air fry until the ghosts are golden brown and crispy with slightly charred edges. Serve immediately alongside a small bowl of ketch

15-Minute Air Fryer Kofta Kebab Hack
Ingredients

1 lb ground beef or lamb (an 80/20 blend works best to keep them juicy)

1/2 medium red onion, finely diced

1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
For serving: Cooked yellow rice (prepared with turmeric or saffron), thinly sliced red onions tossed with fresh parsley and a splash of lemon juice.
Instructions
Line your air fryer basket with a sheet of parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent the meat from sticking.
In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the ground meat, diced red onion, chopped parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Transfer the entire meat mixture into the center of the air fryer basket. Use your hands or a spatula to press it down firmly into one large, even circular patty.
Using a silicone spatula, press deeply into the meat to score it into four distinct, rectangular "log" shapes right in the basket.
Set the air fryer to 200°C (about 400°F) and cook for 15 minutes. As the meat cooks, the scored sections will naturally pull apart and shrink slightly, forming individual, perfectly shaped kebabs.
Remove the kebabs from the air fryer and serve them hot over a bed of yellow rice, topped generously with the fresh red onion and parsley salad
