Equipment
Ingredients
- Green beans trimmed and snapped to the length you prefer (they'll shrink)
- Just a spritz of olive oil or avocado oil the latter is ideal, to prevent oxidation
- Fresh-ground Himalayan sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer at 400 F for a couple minutes while you prep the beans.
- Put the beans in a bowl and spritz or lightly drizzle with oil. LIGHTLY. You don't need much with an air fryer. Sprinkle liberally with fresh-ground Himalayan sea salt, and toss or stir to lightly coat the beans.
- Throw the beans into the air fryer and cook at 400 F for 7-10 minutes (it will depend on your air fryer). Check them at 5 minutes, give them a toss to flip, and continue cooking until they're the level of blistered that you want.
- Remove from the air fryer and sprinkle immediately with a little more sea salt. Serve hot and fresh.
