- Once done, carefully remove the skewers from the air fryer using tongs.
- Serve the potato and meatball skewers hot as a delicious and satisfying meal.
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the size of your meatballs and potatoes, as well as the efficiency of your air fryer. Adjust the cooking time as needed to ensure everything is cooked through and nicely browned.
