Description

Filled with a mixture of butter instant potatoes and Cheddar and cotija cheeses, these crispy potato tacos are simple to make in the air fryer.

Ingredients

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

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.
