  1. Preheat the air fryer to 200°C for 3 minutes.

  2. Pat the mushrooms dry and place them in a large bowl.

  3. Mix the melted butter, minced garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

  4. Pour the garlic butter over the mushrooms and toss until evenly coated.

  5. Arrange the mushrooms in a single layer in the air-fryer basket; cook in batches if needed.

  6. Air-fry for 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the mushrooms are browned and tender.

  7. Transfer to a serving bowl, spoon over any juices from the basket and finish with chopped parsley.

Notes

If your mushrooms are very large, quarter them so they cook at the same rate.
Avoid overcrowding the basket; cook in batches for better browning.
For extra richness, finish with a small squeeze of lemon and a little extra butter.
About this recipe
These air-fried mushrooms are savoury, juicy and deeply flavoured with garlic butter. The air fryer gives them caramelised edges while keeping the centres tender. Serve as a quick side for grilled meats, spoon over toasted sourdough, or add to warm grain bowls. It is a simple, reliable recipe for a fast weeknight extra.
