Steps

  1. 1

    Trim cauliflower so it sits flat. If large, cut in half to fit your air fryer.

  2. 2

    Mix yogurt with all spices. Rub the mixture all over the cauliflower, getting into the crevices.

  3. 3

    Drizzle with olive oil. Air fry at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until deeply golden and a knife slides easily into the center.

  4. 4

    Drizzle with tahini and lemon juice. Top with cilantro and pine nuts.

  5. 5

    Slice into wedges and serve as a showpiece side dish.

💡

Tip: Size matters — make sure the cauliflower fits with the lid closed. The yogurt coating creates a gorgeous crust while keeping the inside tender. Check doneness with a knife through the stem.

Why Air Fry This?

  • ⏱️Ready in 25 minutes vs ~40 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
  • 🌡️Concentrated heat circulation produces even browning and a crispier crust than a full-size oven.
  • 🔥Rapid air circulation delivers oven-quality results in a fraction of the time.
