Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 medium green cabbage cut into roughly 2-inch pieces, layers separated
  • 1.5 tbsp avocado or light olive oil
  • 1-1.5 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • kosher salt a pinch, to taste

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Perforated liner
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Cut the cabbage into even, non-feathery pieces and dry it thoroughly — if a towel comes away damp, keep drying.
  2. Toss hard with the oil first to coat every piece, then add the Old Bay last so it sticks evenly.
  3. Preheat to 375°F. Spread in a single layer, no overloading. Cook 3 minutes without stirring to set the colour, toss, then check again at 6. If the pieces are flexible, go 1 to 3 minutes more.
  4. Rest 2 minutes in the basket, then move to a rack.

Notes

Even pieces — tissue-thin bits scorch, chunky slaw bits steam.
Oil first, seasoning last.
A wet bottom after cooking means you overloaded the basket.
