  1. I’ve been doing this great recipe in my Ninja Foodi but I don’t know if I shouldn’t put in the crisp basket or just the cooking pot….. i put a little less black pepper as I find it is a bit tpoo much

  2. Realllly gonna try this!! But I’m lazy and intend to use frozen cubes. How much would I need to get the same weight as the 6 potatoes?

  3. New to the air fryer community, “These turned out perfect”.
    Thanks for sharing. I was beginning to have buyers remorse.
