Ingredients

  • mushroom300 g
  • garlic3 cloves
  • oil1 tbsp
  • black pepper0.5 tsp
  • dried thyme0.5 tsp

Method

  1. Clean

    Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp cloth and keep the caps whole. Wiping rather than washing stops them soaking up water, so they roast and brown in the basket instead of turning soft and grey.

  2. Marinate

    Toss the mushrooms with the oil, minced garlic, pepper and thyme, then rest for 10 minutes. The short rest lets the oil and garlic settle onto the caps so the flavour carries right through as they cook.

  3. Thread

    Slide the mushrooms onto soaked wooden skewers, leaving a small gap between each cap. Soaking the skewers first stops them scorching, and the gaps let hot air brown every side evenly.

  4. Air fry

    Air fry at 190°C for 13 min, turning once halfway, until the mushrooms are browned and tender. Turning them gives both sides equal time against the hot air for even colour all over.
