Method
- Preheat the air-fryer to 200°c.
- Wash the potatoes and pat dry. Pierce a few times with a sharp knife and spritz all over with the spray oil. Sprinkle with salt and rub to coat.
- Put the potatoes into the air-fryer and cook for 20 mins, then turn and cook for another 10-15mins, until a knife goes through easily.
- Lift out of the air-fryer and allow to cool for 5 mins. Cut across the top and push the sides in to fluff the potato in the centre.
- Add butter and your chosen filling before serving.
- For the pesto chicken, mix the mayo and pesto and season well with black pepper. Tear the chicken breast into small pieces and stir through until well coated.
