    Why You’ll Love This Recipe:

    • They're easy and fast to make - This recipe is pretty simple and straight-forward. Chop the veggies, season and air fry. 10 to 12 minutes is all you need for these air fryer veggies unlike in the oven which takes about half an hour.
    • Uses a variety of vegetables - I love how you can use many vegetables and cook them all at the same time. This is also one of my fridge clean-up recipes. A half pack of mushrooms, a cut red pepper, some broccoli florets, and half used onions all hiding in the vegetable drawer in the fridge gets used up in this recipe.
    • They're flavourful, well seasoned and tastes so delicious - These air fried vegetables pack a lot of flavour thanks to spices and Worcestershire sauce used. It gets better the next day, if there's any left at all.

    Ingredients and Notes

    ingredients for air fryer vegetables.
    • Vegetables- a mix of broccoli, red pepper, zucchini, mushrooms, and onions.
    • Oil - I use a light tasting olive oil, but any cooking oil like avocado oil, canola oil or any vegetable oil would work.
    • Spices - garlic powder, black pepper, salt are used. You can add smoked paprika, red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper for heat.
    • Dried oregano - I like to use oregano but feel free to use dried thyme or rosemary.
    • Worcestershire sauce - gives these vegetables more flavor. Substitute with soy sauce.

    STEP SIX: Air fry vegetables at 400˚F for 10 to 12 minutes shaking the basket halfway through.

    *Air fryers come in different sizes and models, and you may need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.

    Tip - If you're cooking more than one batch, after the last batch is done, place all the veggies back in the air fryer and warm it up for a minute or two. Or keep the air fried vegetables in a warm oven until ready to serve.

    What Kind Of Vegetables To Use

    You can cook all kinds of vegetables in the air fryer but when you cook a mix of vegetables, you need to cook them according to their firmness. Because not all vegetables cook at the same time; firm vegetables take more time to cook than tender veggies.

    How To Air Fry Firm Vegetables

    Firm vegetables like starchy and root vegetables take more time to cook in the air fryer. These veggies include

    • Carrots
    • Beets
    • Parsnip
    • Potatoes
    • Sweet Potatoes
    • Butternut squash
    • Pumpkin

    I have recipes for cooking these vegetables individually in my site. To cook a mix of these veggies, cut them into roughly the same size, season and air fry them at 400˚F for about 20 minutes until tender.

    How To Air Fry Tender Vegetables

    Tender vegetables take less time to cook in the air fryer. These veggies include

    • Broccoli
    • Cauliflower
    • Bell pepper
    • Yellow squash
    • Zucchini
    • Mushrooms
    • Onions
    • Green beans
    • Asparagus
    • Brussels sprouts

    My recipe below includes mostly tender veggies and they get cooked at 400˚F for about 10 to 12 minutes.

    How To Air Fry A Mix Of Tender And Firm Vegetables

    If you want to air fry a mix of both tender and firm vegetables I recommend air frying the firm vegetables first. About 10 minutes before it's done cooking, add the tender veggies to the air fryer and air fry until all the vegetables are cooked through.

    How To Air Fry Frozen Vegetables

    To air fry frozen vegetables, season and place in the air fryer basket. Air fry in a preheated air fryer at 400˚F for a 12 to 15 minutes until tender. Shake the basket the halfway through.

    Serving Suggestions

    You can serve these air fryer roasted vegetables with my flavourful chicken thighs, steak, salmon or shrimp.

    Serve it on basmati rice or cauliflower rice.

    For extra oomph and deliciousness, serve these roasted vegetables drizzled with spicy mayo sauce. Or add a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

    Storing and Reheating

    Store- leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.

    Reheat- in the microwave or in the air fryer at 375˚F for a few minutes until warm through.
