Air Fryer Pasta Chips
Air fryer pasta chips are a fun, pasta-based snack that transforms leftovers into something delicious. With just a light coat of oil and hot air circulating around, ordinary pasta becomes crispy, golden, and ready to snack on in just minutes.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Mixing Bowl
- Paper towels
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 200 g Pasta small shapes like rotini or penne, cooked al dente
- 30 ml Olive oil for coating
- 50 g Parmesan cheese grated
- 2 g Garlic powder
- 1 g Dried oregano
- 1 g Crushed red pepper flakes optional for heat
Instructions
- Start with dry, cooked pasta that’s al dente. Drain and pat it very dry with paper towels.
- Toss the warm pasta with 30 ml of olive oil, just enough to give each piece a light coat.
- Put the cooked, dried pasta back in a bowl and sprinkle with Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Toss gently to coat.
- Preheat your air fryer to 200°C. Once heated, arrange the seasoned pasta in a single layer in the fryer basket.
- Air fry for 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even browning. If you want them extra crunchy, let them go for another 2–3 minutes.
- Your chips are done when they're crisp and golden. Test one chip to check; they should break easily.
Notes
Tip: Avoid crowding the basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
