Directions
Preheat your air fryer to 370°F / 188°C.
In a large bowl, toss the cabbage wedges with olive oil, chopped cilantro, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to make sure the seasoning gets between the leaves.
Arrange the seasoned cabbage wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Air fry for 25 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the center is tender.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Keep the Core Intact: When cutting the cabbage, leave a piece of the core on each wedge. This acts as a natural binder, holding the leaves together during cooking and serving.
Don't Crowd the Basket: For the crispiest results, arrange the wedges in a single layer with space between them. This allows the hot air to circulate and roast the cabbage instead of steaming it.
Check Midway: Every air fryer is different. Take a peek around the 15-minute mark. If the edges are browning too quickly, you can lower the temperature for the remaining time.
Finish with Freshness: A final squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of cilantro after cooking adds a bright, zesty pop that elevates the entire dish.
