Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Tongs
  • Small bowl
  • Pastry brush
  • Fork

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large RUSSET POTATOES
  • 2 tbsp OLIVE OIL
  • 1 tbsp KOSHER SALT
  • 1 tsp BLACK PEPPER
  • 2 tbsp BUTTER
  • 1/4 cup SOUR CREAM

Instructions
 

  • Scrub your potatoes under cold water. Use a brush to remove all dirt. Dry them very well with a towel.
  • Poke holes all over the skin. Use a sharp fork for this task. Do this about six times per potato.
  • Rub the potatoes with olive oil. Ensure the entire surface is covered. Sprinkle plenty of salt and pepper now.
  • Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket. Do not let them touch each other. This allows the air to flow.
  • Set the temperature to 400 degrees. Cook them for about forty minutes total. Flip them halfway through the timer.
  • Check for softness with a knife. The skin should feel very firm. The inside should feel like butter.

Notes

  • Always dry potatoes completely before adding any oil.
  • Pick potatoes that are all the same size.
  • Do not crowd the air fryer basket at all.
  • Use high-quality sea salt for the best crust.
  • Let potatoes rest for two minutes before cutting.
  • Check doneness by squeezing the sides with tongs.
