Equipment
1 Air Fryer, or baking trays & oven
1 pastry brush
1 mandolin
Ingredients
1
large zucchini
or 4 baby marrows,
washed
2
beetroot
washed and peeled
5
tbsp
olive oil
3
tsp
desert or sea salt
Instructions
Using a pastry brush
(or painting brush)
, brush your baking trays with olive oil.
Thinly slice the zucchini (or baby marrows) and beetroot
(a mandolin is great for this)
.
Place the slices on the prepared baking trays and brush lightly with olive oil.
Sprinkle the salt over all the slices
(less is more!)
Bake in the oven for approximately 2 hours – they should be crispy, not soggy or brown.
Cool on a wire rack and serve.
These can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days. If they get a little soggy, simply ‘refresh’ in the oven until crispy again.
Notes
Air Fryer cooking instructions:
Cook at 180 C for 15-18 minutes flipping half way through.
Variations:
You can make them with a variety of different root vegetables
(parsnips are particularly good).
