Notes

If you have leftovers, allow the cauliflower to cool and then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. Enjoy cold, or reheat in the air fryer or oven for 5-10 minutes.
You could also use fresh cauliflower for this recipe. Cut a whole cauliflower into florets and season in the same way. Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding your airfryer.
If you have a small airfryer, the amounts listed above may be too much. Either reduce the amount of cauliflower you use, or air fry in batches to ensure the cauliflower can get sufficiently crispy.
