Cut potatoes into wedges.
Soak in cold water for 10–15 minutes to improve crispness.
Drain and dry thoroughly.
Toss with olive oil, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Cook in an air fryer at 200°C for 18–22 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
Heat butter or olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt.
Cook for 5–6 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.
In the same pan, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat.
Season with salt and black pepper.

Top with warm ground beef and sautéed mushrooms.
Add crispy air-fryer potato wedges.
Drizzle with lemon aioli or serve the aioli on the side as a dipping sauce.
Soaking the potato wedges in cold water helps remove excess starch, making them crispier when cooked.
You can customize the salad base with additional vegetables like cucumber or bell peppers.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the potato wedge seasoning.

Optional toppings like shredded cheddar cheese or avocado slices can add extra richness to the dish.
