Air Fryer Roast Potatoes

Looking for a tasty and healthy side dish? We all know that roasting potatoes in an oven is delicious but it's not always practical or as healthy as you might like.
The solution? Air fryer roast potatoes! It couldn't be easier to prepare these little beauties - just boil them first before popping into your air fryer basket with some oil and seasoning of choice.
20-30 minutes later they'll be ready to go.
You can make up batches ahead and keep them in the fridge or freezer too so there will always be roasted spuds at hand when needed.
Or use shop brought frozen roast potatoes in the air fryer, perfect if you don't have time to prepare ahead.
