There are many reasons why this dish tastes so good. First, the potatoes are fully cooked then shredded and coated with seasonings. This ensures that they will be nice and crispy when fried (no crunchy bites inside). Second, the seasoning is simple but effective. A little salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder go a long way in terms of flavor. Lastly, the air fryer cooks the hash browns evenly and quickly, so they come out perfect every time!
