Zucchini Fries with Roasted Garlic Aioli for the Air Fryer
SERVES: 4
TEMPERATURE: 400º F
COOKING TIME: 12 minutes
Ingredients:
1 head garlic
Roasted Garlic Aïoli:
1 teaspoon roasted garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup mayonnaise
Juice of ½ lemon
Salt and pepper
For zucchini fries:
½ cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
Salt and pepper
1 large zucchini, cut into ½-inch sticks
Olive oil in a spray bottle, can or mister
Directions:
1. Pre-heat the air fryer to 380º F.
2. Slice off the top of the head of garlic to expose the tops of all
the cloves, and drizzle olive  oil on top. Place the head of garlic,
cut side up, into the air fryer and air-fry the garlic for 15  minutes
at 380º F. When finished, let the garlic cool a little. Squeeze the
roasted garlic cloves  out of the head and mash to form a paste. To
make the aioli, place 1 teaspoon of the roasted garlic  paste in a
small bowl and reserve the rest for another use. Add the mayonnaise,
olive oil and lemon  juice and whisk to combine. Season the aioli with
salt and pepper. 3. While the garlic is cooking, prepare the zucchini
fries. Create a dredging station with three  shallow dishes. Place the
flour in the first shallow dish and season well with salt and freshly
ground black pepper. Put the beaten eggs in the second shallow dish. In
the third shallow dish,  combine the breadcrumbs, salt and pepper.
Dredge the zucchini sticks, coating with flour first,  then dipping
them into the egg to coat, and finally tossing in breadcrumbs. Shake
the dish with the  breadcrumbs and pat the crumbs onto the zucchini
sticks with your hands so they stick evenly. 4. Place the zucchini
fries on a flat surface and let them sit at least 10 minutes before
frying to  let them dry out a little. Pre-heat the air fryer to 400º F.
5. Spray one side of the zucchini sticks with olive oil, and place them
into the air-fryer basket.  You can air-fry the fries in two layers,
placing the second layer in the opposite direction to the  first.
Air-fry for 12 minutes turning and rotating the fries halfway through
the cooking time. Spray with additional oil when you turn them over. 6.
Serve Zucchini fries warm with roasted garlic aioli.
