Ingredients

1.2kg royal red potatoes, halved if large

3 cups (750ml) white vinegar

1 tablespoon cooking salt

¼ cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil

1 bulb garlic, cloves separated

1 bunch rosemary sprigs

Method

Place potatoes in a large saucepan. Add vinegar, salt and enough water to just cover; bring to the boil. Boil, partially covered, for 15–20 minutes (the time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes) or until potatoes are tender; drain.

Preheat a 5.3-litre air fryer to 200°C for 3 minutes.

Transfer potatoes to a large oven tray. Using a potato masher or the back of a spoon, press down on potatoes until flattened slightly and skins split. Brush potatoes with oil.

Taking care, place potatoes in the air fryer basket; at 200°C, cook for 30 minutes, turning twice during cooking time, or until potatoes are golden. Add garlic 10 minutes into cooking time and rosemary in the last 5 minutes.

Season smashed potatoes generously with salt. Serve with roast garlic and rosemary sprigs.
