## Ingredients

- 3 medium medium potatoes Yukon Gold or Russet
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil optional
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon herbs de Provence
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

## Instructions

1. Place a spatula or two chopsticks on either side of each potato.
2. Carefully slice thin cuts across the top (about 2 mm thick), stopping just before the bottom so the potato stays intact.
3. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, salt, garlic powder, and herbs de Provence.
4. Using a brush, coat the potatoes with the butter mixture, making sure to get some of it between the slices.
5. Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (356°F).
6. Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket.
7. Cook for 30–35 minutes, brushing once more with the butter mixture halfway through.
8. When the potatoes are golden and tender, sprinkle grated Parmesan over the top.
9. Air fry for an additional 2–3 minutes until the cheese melts and crisps slightly.
10. Serve hot, optionally topped with a pinch of flaky salt and fresh herbs.
11. Enjoy!

## Equipment

- spatula
- chopsticks
- small bowl
- brush
- air fryer
- air fryer basket

## Tips

- Place a spatula or two chopsticks on either side of each potato to avoid slicing all the way through.
- Aim for thin slices (about 2 mm thick) and cut deep, stopping just short of the base (around 1 cm uncut) for perfect fanning.
- Brush melted butter across the top multiple times to help loosen slices and deliver flavor between layers.
- Use medium-sized starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for best texture.
- Freshly grated Parmesan is recommended over pre-shredded varieties for better melting and texture.
