Method
Beat the eggs
Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt, then stir in the chopped onion and bell pepper. Beating the eggs well until the yolks and whites blend into one colour gives you a soft, even set once they cook rather than streaky patches.
Fill the tortillas
Lay the tortillas flat and spoon the egg mix down the centre of each, then top with grated cheese. Keep the filling in a line down the middle and away from the edges so the tortilla folds shut cleanly without spilling.
Fold and press
Fold each tortilla over into a taco shape and press the edge firmly so the filling stays tucked inside. A good press helps the tortilla hold its fold in the basket, so it crisps into shape instead of flopping open.
Air fry
Set the tacos in the basket seam side down and air-fry at 180°C for 12 min until the egg is fully set and the tortilla is crisp and golden. Placing the seam down holds them closed as they cook, and a firm, dry centre tells you the egg is done.
