Air Fryer Tacos de Papa
Cook:25m
Ready in:30m
Serving:10 tacos

Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 (4 ounce) package instant mashed potatoes (such as Idahoan® Buttery Homestyle®)
  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 10 corn tortillas
  • 1 serving nonstick cooking spray
  • ½ cup salsa verde
  • ¼ cup crumbled cotija cheese

Cooking Directions

  1. Heat water in a medium saucepan to boiling. Remove from the heat and stir in instant mashed potatoes. Mix thoroughly with a fork to moisten all potatoes and let stand 5 minutes. Stir in Cheddar cheese, green onion, and cumin.
  2. Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  3. Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave on high until warm, about 20 seconds.
  4. Spread 1 tablespoon potato mixture in the center of a tortilla and fold over to make a taco. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  5. Working in batches, place tacos in the basket of an air fryer. Spray the tops with cooking spray and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and repeat to cook remaining tacos.
  6. Drizzle salsa verde over tacos and top with cotija cheese.
This recipe calls for instant mashed potatoes but it's also a great way to use up leftover homemade mashed potatoes.
