Instructions
1.Prepare the courgettes
Wash and dry the courgettes, then cut into 1.5 cm thick half-moons.
Preheat the empty basket for 3 minutes at 190 °C in Air Fry mode according to the manual.2.Season the courgettes
Toss with the oil, garlic and salt just before cooking.
Arrange in one layer in a large basket roughly 22 × 22 cm, or use two batches.3.Cook and add the Parmesan
Cook at 190 °C for 8–12 minutes, turning halfway.
Scatter the Parmesan over the pieces and cook for another 2 minutes, making 10–14 minutes per batch in total.4.Check the cooking
Check from 10 minutes: the courgettes should be tender but hold their shape, with melted, lightly golden cheese.
Lift out with a spatula to keep the topping intact.
Tips from Atelier Airfryer
A tip for better texture
Do not salt far in advance, as courgettes release water.
For a narrow basket, two small batches give a less watery result.
Adjusting batches
The displayed 14 minutes cover one batch; allow 10–14 minutes at 190 °C depending on your appliance.
The 3-minute preheat is included in preparation time.
If the basket is too small, repeat cooking without stacking the food.
Useful accessory (Amazon affiliate link)
Gently lift the cooked food with a Silicone spatula.
