Air fryer times for vegetables
Vegetables run hotter in an air fryer than most people expect — manufacturer charts sit in the 415–425 °F range, well above the 350–375 °F habit people bring from the oven. There is no food safety floor here, so the only question is browning versus burning. Water content decides everything: a dry surface chars, a wet one steams.
