Since I was a kid, I have loved these potato coins. My grandmother used to make them for us. As kids, we never wanted to eat green vegetables and always asked for potatoes.

My mother was firm with food, and we had to finish our greens and lentils. The only bonus was that she often made sure we had potatoes on our plate, especially these coins.

She used to make these in a wok or Indian-style kadhai. They were crisp on the edges and creamy in the middle. She coated them simply with salt and turmeric. They were delicious in the true sense—classic and quite simple.

What Ingredients are Needed for this Recipe?

Potatoes—I always prefer Yukon gold or red potatoes for coins or discs. They have a smooth texture and comparatively clean skin. Air-frying them doesn't take much effort or time.

Turmeric Powder- Who doesn't like the golden hue of turmeric powder? Being an Indian, I use turmeric in everything in my DNA. It has incredible health benefits as well.

Research shows that eating turmeric every day reduces the risk of Alzheimer's and other diseases.

However, the key is to use them in less quantity. Remember, if you use them in large amounts, your dish may become bitter in taste.

Red Chili Powder—You cannot escape spice if the recipe is Indian. I love using Kashmiri red chili powder since it has less heat and is bright.

Salt and oil are the usual staples in this recipe.

The use of garlic powder is optional. You can use minced garlic as well. I sometimes do, and sometimes, I don't prefer to. So, it's optional for anybody.

How to Serve Air Fryer Potato Coins-

Make them in large quantities; otherwise, you won't get a chance to serve these bad boys. They are so delightful that I usually eat them before serving the first batch, and then I have to make them again.

So, just for the convenience of your time, make them in reasonable quantity and serve with a dip of your choice.

Pairing them with rice and any curry gravy is a match made in heaven. You will love how comforting the combo sounds.
