# Broccoli in an air fryer

**broccoli in an air fryer: 190 °C / 374 °F for 7–10 min**

Oven equivalent: 200 °C / 392 °F for 20–25 min

An air fryer is a small convection oven, so broccoli cooks at 190 °C rather than 200 °C and takes 7–10 min instead of 20–25. That is roughly the usual 20 °C drop and a fifth off the time, though this one needs more of a drop than the rule suggests — see below.

## Side by side

|  | Oven | Air fryer |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Temperature | 200 °C / 392 °F | 190 °C / 374 °F |
| Time | 20–25 min | 7–10 min |
| Preheat | Yes | Not needed |
| Turn or shake | — | Shake once at the halfway point. |

## What goes wrong

- Toss in oil first. Dry florets scorch at the tips before the stems soften.
- The exposed tips will char slightly. That is the point, not a mistake.
