1-First: peel and cube the 2 large potatoes, then boil until they are fork tender and drain. This step takes about 10-15 minutes and helps the potatoes mash smoothly.

2-Next, in a bowl, season the boiled potatoes with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, salt, and pepper to taste for a flavorful base.

3-After seasoning, mash the potatoes until smooth, then add 4 tablespoons cornstarch and mix until a thick, firm dough forms; add more flour if needed for consistency. Roll the dough into balls, place them in an air fryer, and spray with oil spray to promote crispiness. Air-fry at 200 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy, shaking regularly to ensure even cooking.

4-Once done, prepare garlic butter by melting 100 grams butter in the microwave with 2 teaspoons garlic powder and a handful of fresh parsley, heating in 30-second intervals until fully melted.

5-Finally, toss the cooked potato pops with the garlic butter, then serve immediately with any remaining butter poured over. This method keeps the pops moist and tasty, ideal for a quick snack.
