Begin by rinsing the diced potatoes thoroughly. Place them in a microwave-safe bowl.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, piercing the wrap with a fork to allow steam to escape. Microwave the potatoes on high power for 9 to 12 minutes, or until they are tender when poked.

Once cooked, carefully remove the plastic wrap and mash the potatoes until they are smooth with no lumps.

Allow the mashed potatoes to cool down completely, stirring occasionally, until no steam is visible. This step is crucial for the crispiness.

Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried parsley, salt, and cornstarch to the cooled mashed potatoes. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until a cohesive dough is formed.

Shape the potato dough into uniform bite-sized balls.

Place the potato balls on a wire rack that fits inside your air fryer basket. Spray them generously with cooking spray to ensure crispiness.

Air fry the potato balls at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Shake the basket halfway through cooking for even browning.

Serve the crispy potato bites hot, optionally with ketchup for dipping.
