Instructions
- The most significant part that we often neglect is preheating the air fryer to ensure even cooking. If you regularly use an air fryer, turn it on for 2 minutes before initiating the cooking process to preheat it. Set a target temperature of 375 degrees F and leave it for at least 2 minutes until it is ready to cook the hash browns.
- While the air fryer is preheating, we can do other tasks, such as preparing the hash browns. Take a medium-sized bowl and uncover the pack of frozen hash browns. Add hash browns to the bowl and then drizzle olive oil with the help of a tablespoon; however, if you prefer oils other than olive, you can use avocado oil.
- Majority of the people confuse the amount of oil but they are unfamiliar with the fact that air fryers consume less oil. So if you find yourself uncertain, drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive or avocado oil on the hash browns. Gather all the seasoning including salt, garlic powder, pepper, and paprika.
- Coat oil on the hash browns and then add seasoning. Use a spoon to mix them until you find that seasonings have coated on the hash browns. It will take a minute and all the seasonings will be mixed with the hash browns.
- Check if the air fryer is ready and then take its basket out. Use tongs to place the coated hash browns onto the basket and then cook for 15 minutes. Usually, hash browns require 18 minutes but it depends upon the type of air fryer you use; therefore; I advise people to be careful after 15 minutes and check them if they are prepared because overcooking for only 1 extra minute can ruin the hash browns.
- After every 2 to 4 minutes, take the basket out and shake all the hash browns. Use tongs to flip the sides and if you find that some browns are prepared while others need time then take the cooked ones out of the basket and fry the rest of the hash browns. Transfer hash browns to a plate and serve them with hot eggs, savory, and bacon.
