3-Step Execution Protocol
1
Preheat & Prep
Preheat air-fryer to 380°F (193°C). Place roasted cauliflower florets (Fresh cauliflower cut into 1.5-inch flat-sided florets, dry, oiled and spiced) in a single layer with space between items for convection airflow. Spray lightly with high-smoke-point oil.
2
Cook & Flip
Cook for 12–15 mins. Flip or shake basket at the 7-minute mark for even browning.
3
Check & Rest
Edges and florets charred golden-brown, core easily pierced with a wooden toothpick. Rest for 0 minutes before serving.

Pro Tip: Cut florets with at least one flat face so they brown against the heated basket rather than only catching top convection air.
