Air frying concentrates the flavor of asparagus and browns its tips. A late coating of Parmesan has time to melt without scorching.

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 300 g asparagus trimmed weight
  • 10 g olive oil
  • 20 g finely grated Parmesan
  • 15 g lemon juice
  • 1 g fine salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (200°C) if your model calls for preheating.
  2. Toss asparagus with the oil and salt. Place the spears in a single layer in the basket.
  3. Cook for 5–7 minutes, turning once. Add Parmesan and cook 1–2 minutes more, until the stalks are fork-tender with a little resistance.
  4. Transfer to a plate and drizzle with lemon juice.

Notes

For pencil-thin spears, check after 3 minutes. If you need two batches, allow extra time.
