Crispy Garlic Butter Accordion Potatoes – An Easy and Delicious Snack
Accordion potatoes are a fun and tasty way to enjoy ordinary potatoes. They have a beautiful shape, a crispy outside, and a soft inside. The best part is their delicious garlic butter flavour. You can make them at home with simple ingredients and serve them as a snack or side dish.
Ingredients
- 3 medium-sized potatoes
- 2 tablespoons cornflour
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon red chilli powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika (optional)
- Salt to taste
- Fresh coriander
- Grated cheese (optional)
How to Make Accordion Potatoes
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

First, wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thick slices. Place one slice between two wooden skewers. This will help you avoid cutting all the way through.
Make diagonal cuts on one side of the slice. Turn it over and make diagonal cuts in the opposite direction. Your potato slice will now have a beautiful accordion pattern.
Step 2: Prepare the Garlic Butter
Take a small bowl and add melted butter, cooking oil, garlic powder, red chilli powder, black pepper, paprika, and salt. Mix everything well.

Brush this mixture over the potato slices. Sprinkle a little cornflour on them to help create a crispy texture.
Step 3: Cook Until Golden
You can cook these potatoes in three different ways:
- Air Fryer: Cook at 190°C for 15–20 minutes.
- Oven: Bake at 200°C for 25–30 minutes.
- Deep Frying: Fry in medium-hot oil until golden and crispy.
Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the potato slices.

Step 4: Add the Final Touch
Once the potatoes are ready, place them on a serving plate. Sprinkle grated cheese, chilli flakes, and fresh coriander on top.
For an even better taste, serve them with garlic mayonnaise.
Easy Garlic Mayo Dip
You only need a few ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- ½ teaspoon garlic paste
- A little lemon juice
- A pinch of black pepper
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl. Your creamy dipping sauce is ready!
Secret Tip:
After washing or soaking the potato slices, dry them properly with a clean kitchen towel before adding the seasoning. Removing extra moisture helps the potatoes become crispier. Also, avoid adding too much cornflour, as a light coating is enough for a nice texture.
