  • 1 lb (450 g) okra, cut into 1-inch (2 ½ cm) pieces
  • 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) of avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) of pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) of paprika (or chili powder for a spicier option)

                • 2Toss all of the ingredients in a large bowl until completely coated.
                • 3Place the seasoned okra in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray. (If needed, cook the okra in several batches.)
                • 4Cook the okra for 10 to 12 minutes, turning over halfway through the cooking time, until browned and cooked to your liking.
                • 5Carefully remove the okra from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
