Tips

Cooking times may vary depending on make and mobile of air fryer.

Cauliflower should be cooked but still retain a crunchy texture

If you don’t have an air fryer, simply omit the air fyer step and cook cauliflower for an extra 3-4 minutes or until just tender

Substitute cauliflower with broccoli or even large mushrooms. Adjust cooking time to suit.
