Ingredients

600 g Carrots
1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
2 tsp Sea Salt Flakes

Instructions

If your air fryer has a preheat setting, start this now.
Top, tail and peel roughly 600g Carrots.
Cut the carrots into thick slices on an angle. Aim for slices no more than 1cm/⅓" thick. Place into a bowl.
Drizzle over 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil and add 2 tsp Sea Salt Flakes. Toss to fully coat the carrot slices.
Tip the carrots into the air fryer basket and give them a shake to make sure they're evenly spread.
Cook at 190c for 20 minutes. Give the carrots a shake a couple of times during cooking to ensure that they cook evenly - especially if they are not quite sitting in a single layer like mine.

Notes

Portion Size - The portion size given assumes that the carrots are being served as part of a larger meal like a roast dinner with multiple vegetable options. Double the recipe (or consider the portion number halved) if making the carrots the main vegetable on your meal.
This recipe is tested in a Cosori Lite (‎CAF-LI401S) with a 3.8 litre capacity. The square(ish) shaped basket is 21cm x 21cm and 24cm on the diagonal.
Not all models advise preheating is required. Please follow the recommended instructions for your model. Mine has a specific preheat setting which is 4 minutes at 205c.
For this recipe, I managed to fit in 600g of thickly sliced carrots. This was a little more than a single layer but everything cooked evenly with a couple of shakes.
As all air fryer models are a little different, you may find that you can fit more or less in at a time. Some models include stacking shelves which will increase capacity.
Required cooking times and temperatures can also vary between models and brands. If you know that your air fryer runs a little hotter than most recipes suggest, use a lower temperature. And vice versa. Equally if you find that food cooks more quickly in your machine than instructions usually state, reduce the cooking time (or check it earlier) and vice versa.
