For enhanced flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika or a pinch of cayenne pepper before air frying. Experiment with different herbs like rosemary or thyme for a unique twist. Ensure potatoes are not overcooked in the microwave, as they may become too soft and difficult to smash. To avoid sticking, lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil.
