I like my roasties a bit bigger, I don't cut them so small like that. I parboil mine in a pan first for 20-30 minutes. Drain the water & then agitate them (bash them about a bit!) in the pan before putting them in the Actifry. Just a tip for everyone, makes great roasties.
I guess it's a preference; but I would have washed and not peeled those potatoes. Thanks for the video though. Just about to try our actifry for the first time.
You can wash them if you want. I rub off obvious dirt with my fingers and that's all. They are then going to sit in a high heat for a long time if you are worried about contamination.
@@BigSpud thanks for the reply, no I'm not worried at all about contamination lol, I saw somewhere once that they need to be washed and dried with kitchen paper before cooking roasties and chips. Think it was something to do with the starch or something x.
Many thanks for the comment and you aren't wrong. This was a very early video for me and I was still working out my equipment. I should probably remake this one.

What a great video and thanks for your honest conclusion about oven roast having the edge but taking longer.
Thank you David, it is very much a recipe for scratching that midweek treat!

20/30 minutes is way beyond par boiling
@@KM-pq7jk That's with using cold salted water allowing it to heat. Ten minute simmering with boiled water.
Loving my Actifry and chicken and potatoes, or sausage and chips all in one go! Easy clean up too!
Sounds great!
Just learning to use an air fryer like yours. Thanks for the tips.
I would love to see your perfect oven roasted 🥔 potatoe recipe. 🙂✌
Enjoy Emily. My perfect oven roasted potato is on my channel, get practicing now in time for Christmas 😂
You could par boil them and add your seasonings, just reduce time needed!
Great tip Joy!
Good video, spuds look epic.
Thanks for this video
You're welcome. Any other videos you'd like to see?
@@BigSpud no I’m fine but thank you

You're right you absolutely can leave them unpeeled. They are more nutritious that way too.
Did you wash them first, I've read they need to be washed and dried first x

@@cathmorgans9722 I can't detect any difference when I air fry 'roast' potatoes.
Though I still upvoted, I was also expecting a mention of the temperature used, not just the time.
Thanks for the upvote. However my actifry does not have a temperature setting! Literally on or off.
Make sure you use the right potatoes otherwise they drop to bits .. but the bits are lovely
Well said. Got to be a floury type. By coincidence I made them this evening with maris pipers!
@@BigSpud Marus Pipers are great for making roasties.
What temp did you put them on?
My model doesn't have a temperature setting. Sorry! I would use whatever temp your model suggests for chips / fries.
I believe that model is automatically set at 338 degrees...
Enjoyed your video, Gary, in fact it was excellent, but the sound is awful. Really struggled to hear you.
Many thanks for the comment and you aren't wrong. This was a very early video for me and I was still working out my equipment. I should probably remake this one.
Gary even looks like a spud 😅😅
What can I say, part potato all spudfan!
You look familiar
Well I do hang around crumpets a lot.
Werrn you on tv
Crimewatch.
Please... don't have nightmares.
You need to speak louder please.
I'll work on that!
Better to lower the music. 😂
