Air Fryer Carrots (the super-simple method)
- Prepare the carrots : peel them, cut them into sticks or slices (not too thin to prevent them from drying out). Rinse and dry well.
- Season : Add 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, herbs (thyme, parsley, coriander, etc.) and why not a touch of honey or spices! Mix to coat well.
- Arrange in the basket : Spread the carrots in a single layer (no excess thickness). For a large quantity, make two batches.
- Start the Air Fryer at 190°C for 12 minutes . Open halfway through cooking to shake or stir gently.
- Check for doneness : insert a knife; it should go in easily. Need it to brown more? Add 2 minutes, but keep an eye on it to keep it moist.
- Serve warm , drizzle with lemon or sprinkle with seeds. It's ready to eat! 🥕✨
