Ingredients:
- 1 head of cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Spices (Smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prep Time Fun! Gather your ingredients and preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). It’s time to transform this cauliflower into something magical!
Step 2: Cauliflower Party! Wash your cauliflower head thoroughly and pat it dry with a paper towel. Now, let’s chop it into bite-sized florets. Don’t worry about perfection here; rustic is charming!
Step 3: Spice It Up! In a large bowl, toss your cauliflower florets with olive oil, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Feel free to get creative with your seasoning! Maybe a sprinkle of chili flakes for some extra kick? Go for it!
Step 4: Mix and Match! Get your hands in there and mix everything together until each floret is coated in that delicious seasoning blend. This is where the magic starts to happen, and your taste buds are already doing a happy dance!
Step 5: Air Fryer Magic! Spread your seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don’t overcrowd them; give each piece some space to get crispy and golden brown. Pop the basket into the preheated air fryer and let the magic begin!
Step 6: Fry, Baby, Fry! Cook your cauliflower for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Keep an eye on them; we’re looking for that perfect balance of crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It’s like a mini carnival in your kitchen!
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy! Once your cauliflower is golden brown and irresistible, it’s time to plate up and dive in! Serve it as a snack, a side dish, or even a main course. Garnish with a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of fresh herbs if you’re feeling fancy.
Congratulations! You’ve just mastered the art of air fryer cauliflower. Enjoy every crispy, flavorful bite
