Air Fryer Lemon Parmesan Cauliflower Bites

Small cauliflower florets brown quickly at the edges. Adding the Parmesan near the end helps it cling to the florets, and a squeeze of lemon brightens the finished dish.

Ingredients
  

  • 400 g cauliflower florets
  • 14 g olive oil
  • 25 g finely grated Parmesan
  • 15 g lemon juice
  • 1.5 g fine salt

Method
 

  1. Toss the dry florets with oil and salt. Arrange in a single layer and air fry at 390°F (200°C).
  2. Shake the basket after 7 minutes. Continue cooking until browned and nearly fork-tender, about 10–14 minutes altogether.
  3. Scatter Parmesan over the cauliflower and cook for 1–2 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice and serve.

Notes

Put large florets cut-side down at the start so their flat surfaces get more color.
