Fennel gratin in the air fryer – Gordon Ramsay’s version

Fennel gratin in the air fryer


Today I want to share with you one of my latest discoveries in the kitchen: fennel au gratin in the air fryer.

This recipe transforms fennel, a seasonal vegetable often underestimated, in a crunchy and irresistible side dish, perfect for accompanying meat or fish dishes, thanks to its ability to balance flavors with a fresh note reminiscent of anise.

The air fryer as a precious ally in the kitchen

The use of the air fryer is a turning point: this tool, which is gaining more and more popularity, cooks food by circulating hot air evenly and from all sides, obtaining results surprisingly similar to frying but with a negligible quantity of oil. This means lighter and healthier dishes, without sacrificing taste and crunchiness.

Preparing these gratin fennels is very simple: cut, season, and let the air fryer do the rest.

This technology, in addition to being extremely practical, proves to be a precious ally for those trying to maintain a balanced diet, offering the possibility of enjoying gratin dishes without the guilt associated with traditional fried foods.

If you don’t have it yet, I’ll leave you the Amazon affiliate link to purchase my air fryerwith a capacity of 2 litres, perfect for a single or a couple.
