Ingredients

  • 1 medium broccoli floret
  • 2 small potato
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon oregano (dried)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon vegan cream cheese
  • salt as per taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice optional for garnishing

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash the broccoli floret and potatoes. Peel the potatoes and slice them as you like. Make sure not to slice them in more than ¼ th inch thickness or else they will be raw from within. Remove the stems from broccoli and pick the small florets by hand. You may chop them too. While you prep your veggies, preheat Air fryer at 190 ℃ for 5-10 min.
  2. In a medium bowl, add the chunks of potato and broccoli florets. Drizzle olive oil over it along with spices and salt. Mix it well.
  3. Spread the bowl contents in the air fryer basket and air fry for about 10 min at 190℃ . If you don't like very browned or crispy broccoli., either you may add it later or take them out after first 10 min of air frying. Potatoes take a bit more cooking time than broccoli. Leave them for another 5 min or till browned.
  4. Serve the crispy and browned Air fried Broccoli with Potatoes with vegan cream cheese, dash of lemon juice sour cream or have them as is for a quick side dish.

Notes

  • Cut your broccoli and potatoes into evenly sized pieces. This ensures uniform cooking.
  • After washing the broccoli and potatoes, make sure to pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Excess moisture will not make them crispy.
  • Midway through the cooking time, shake the air fryer basket or flip the veggies for even cooking and browning.
  • Air-fried foods are best enjoyed right away to retain their crispiness.
  • While I air fried both broccoli and potatoes together in air fryer basket, I realized that broccoli cooks faster than the potatoes. You may roast potatoes first for 10 min and then add broccoli later, especially if you dislike crispy broccoli. The other method can be to air fry them separately and use parchment paper to avoid too much browning.
