Description

Air frying sausage and potatoes is a quick, satisfying meal perfect for busy weeknights or leisurely weekends. The combination of crispy, golden potatoes and juicy, flavorful sausage creates a dish that’s hearty and delicious. This easy recipe uses simple ingredients and can be customized with your favorite herbs and spices. Let’s dive into the details of preparing this crowd-pleasing dish step by step.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 4–5 sausages (Italian, bratwurst, or breakfast sausage)
  • 4 cups potatoes, diced into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 2–3 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or your favorite herb)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer
    Set your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for a few minutes. This ensures even cooking.
  2. Prepare the Ingredients
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced potatoes, sliced onion (if using), minced garlic, olive oil, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
  3. Cook the Sausages
    Position the sausages inside the air fryer basket after it has been preheated. You can leave them whole or pierce them a few times with a fork to prevent bursting. Cook for 8-12 minutes, turning halfway through, until browned and fully cooked. Cooking times may vary based on sausage thickness and air fryer model.
  4. Add the Potatoes
    After the sausages have cooked for a few minutes, add the seasoned potatoes to the air fryer basket. Spread them out in a single layer for even crisping.
  5. Continue Cooking
    Air fry the sausage and potatoes together for an additional 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket occasionally to ensure even cooking. The potatoes should become golden and crispy, and the sausages should be fully cooked and browned.
  6. Serve
    Transfer the cooked sausage and potatoes to a serving plate. Garnish with fresh herbs or an extra sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
