This is a deliberate variant article: same photographic world, different cooking promise. A spicier potato wedge with paprika, cayenne, garlic, and a lemony finish for burgers, fish, or just dipping sauce.

The air fryer is good at these repeatable little shifts — a different seasoning, a different sauce, a different finish — because the core technique stays stable while the eating experience changes.
