Recipe#1: Air Fryer Spanish Tortilla
When you make a Spanish tortilla in the air fryer, it tastes just as good. Compared to typical recipes, this one requires less clean-up and uses less oil.
Wash the potato cubes and soak them for around 10 minutes in a bowl of cold water.
Preheat your air fryer to 160 degrees C or 325 degrees F.
Drain and pat dry the potatoes. Toss with olive oil in a mixing basin, and then place them in the basket of an air fryer.
Heat them for 18 minutes, increasing the heat to 180 degrees C or 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Shake the basket a little bit twice.
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, pepper, salt, and Pecorino Romano cheese, and then pour into a cake pan (nonstick, 6-inch). Combine the boiled potatoes and leek in a mixing bowl. In the air fryer basket, place the cake pan. Cook for about 15 minutes until the top of the tortilla has browned and the center no longer wiggles.
Cool for 5 minutes after removing from the air fryer. Before serving, garnish with Italian parsley.
Recipe#2: Air Fryer Potatoes Bravas
If you enjoy patatas bravas, here is the recipe for you because they can now be made in the Air Fryer!
The potatoes are the first step in making crunchy Spanish potatoes. Use a starchy potato like a Yukon Gold or a Russet.
To eliminate the starch from the potato, peel it and wash it in cool water. Further, you can place the potatoes in a bowl with water or rub them.
Cut them into the cubes’ form and pat them dry with a clean dishtowel.
Bring a pot of water to a boil in a separate pan. Heat the potatoes for two minutes, then drain and place on a chopping board to cool.
Brush the cubes with olive oil and place them on a chopping board. Turn over and rub the opposite side.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F, line an air fryer basket with parchment paper, and place the patatas bravas in it.
Cook them for 22 minutes in the air fryer. After 5 minutes, remove the basket from the Air Fryer and toss and shake the patatas.
Remove the patatas brava from the air fryer once the cooking time is over.
Serve your patatas bravas seasoned with salt and dish up with brava sauce or aioli.
Recipe#3: Air Fryer Spanish Omelet
This traditional Spanish omelet with ham, potatoes, and peppers is simple to cook with an air fryer.
Cut the potatoes into cubes after peeling them. Place them in the air fryer with the green chili, sliced into strips. Drizzle the oil on top and cook for 20 minutes.
Cook for 5 minutes after cutting the ham into little dice/strips and adding it to the potatoes amid the eggs.
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Sprinkle some parsley as a finishing touch and enjoy.
