Air Fryer Carrots and Potatoes

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 lb. baby potatoes

  if using larger potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 3 medium carrots

  peeled and sliced diagonally
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

• 1 Ensure that your air fryer is fully preheated before adding the vegetables.
  Preheat it to 400°F (200°C), which is ideal for properly roasting root
  vegetables without burning.
• 2 In a large bowl, combine the baby potatoes, sliced carrots, olive oil, and all
  the seasonings.
• 3 Toss the vegetables until they are evenly coated with the oil and spices. This
  step ensures that the oil and spices are distributed evenly, preventing unevenly
  cooked vegetables.
• 4 Add the coated potatoes and carrots to the preheated air fryer basket, being
  careful not to overcrowd them. Arranging them in a single layer allows for
  maximum exposure to the hot air, ensuring fast and even cooking.
• 5 Air fry the vegetables for 15-20 minutes initially, shaking the basket halfway
  through the cooking time. The exact cooking time may vary based on the size of
  the vegetable pieces and your specific air fryer model.
• 6 After 10 minutes of cooking, pause to shake the basket containing the
  vegetables. This helps redistribute them for even browning of the potatoes and
  carrots.
• 7 After shaking, continue cooking for another 5-10 minutes or until the vegetables
  are fork-tender and the edges are crispy and browned. If you prefer extra crispy
  vegetables, you can cook them for an additional minute or two.
• 8 Once the vegetables are done cooking in the air fryer, they will be hot and
  perfectly cooked. Season them to taste with salt and pepper before serving, or
  garnish them with fresh chopped parsley.
• 9 Enjoy!
