Air-Fryer Tempura Veggies

01Method

1. 1

   Set the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and warm a regular oven to 200°F (95°C) to hold cooked batches.

2. 2

   In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, a portion of the salt, and the pepper. Beat the eggs with the water in a second bowl. In a third bowl, combine the panko with the oil.

3. 3

   Lightly season all the vegetables with the remaining salt, then coat each piece first in the flour mixture, next in the egg wash, and finally press into the panko mixture until well covered.

4. 4

   Place half the vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook until golden and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Move to the warm oven while cooking the second batch; add extra salt if desired.
