Ingredients

Smoked Sausage (14 ounce) **I used Andouille sausage that was cut into slices that were ½ inch thick. See the NOTES section below.)
One pound of potatoes (** Yukon gold potatoes that have been peeled and chopped into 1-inch cubes that are about ½ inch thick). See the NOTES section below.)
One medium onion (**yellow onion chopped into large chunks of ½ inch)
To taste, add 2 tsp Cajun Seasoning Salt (**adjust to your own personal flavor desire).
Two tablespoons of olive oil (**use light or extra light olive oil.)
Coat the air fryer basket with cooking oil spray (**).

Directions

Prepare the onion, potatoes, and sausage.
Cut the Yukon gold potatoes into 1-inch cubes that are ½ inch thick after they have been peeled. To remove the starch, rinse them under running water and use a sieve or colander to thoroughly drain them. Spoon them into a big basin. Cut the smoked sausage into slices that are ½ inch thick and place them aside. Separate the onion’s petals and chop it into large pieces, about ½ inch. Put them away.
Add oily oil to the potatoes, salt to your own taste, and homemade salt-free Cajun seasoning. Using a spatula, toss to thoroughly coat them. Stir everything thoroughly after adding the chopped onion.

Air fry

Set the air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. Apply cooking oil spray to the air fryer basket that has been preheated. Put the onion and seasoned potatoes in the basket of the air fryer. Using your spatula, spread them into a single layer. A few pieces piling on top of one another is OK. Now, air fry at 390 degrees for 15 minutes, shaking the basket every five minutes.
once the cooking cycle of 15 minutes is over. Place the sausage slices in the basket of the air fryer. Using a spatula, place them on top of the potatoes in a single layer. At 390 F, air fried for 5 minutes. Serve the potatoes and sausage from the air fryer right away with your preferred dipping sauce. Have fun!

Remarks

Even Cooking: To guarantee even cooking, don’t forget to shake the air fryer basket a few times. This is significant.
The best sausage is smoked sausage that has been fully cooked. Any smoked sausage will work, depending on your preferences. We adore Cajun spicy smoked sausages, andouille, Kielbasa, and Creole. Italian sausage and other uncooked, unsmoked sausages will not work in this recipe.
Top Potatoes: Yukon gold potatoes that have been peeled and chopped into 1-inch cubes that are ½ inch thick. If you’d like, you can peel them. Red potatoes of the same size or baby red or gold potatoes cut in half can alternatively be used in place of the gold potatoes.
