📝 Air Fryer Method

1. Pat salmon fillets dry with kitchen paper — helps them crisp in the air fryer.
2. Brush salmon lightly with oil. Season with garlic powder, herbs, salt, and pepper.
3. Toss broccoli, pepper, and courgette in remaining oil. Season lightly.
4. Preheat air fryer to 180°C.
5. Place vegetables on Bottom Rack. Lay salmon on Top Rack, skin-side down.
6. Air fry for 10–12 minutes until salmon flaks easily and veg is tender crisp.
7. Check at 10 minutes — remove salmon if done, leave veg 2–3 minutes longer if needed.
8. Serve with lemon wedges — perfect hot.

💡 Pro Tip: Patting fish dry before air frying = firm flesh and lightly golden edges. No wet, soggy salmon.
