  • Air frying pork shoulder steaks is a fantastic way to achieve a succulent and flavoursome dish with minimal fuss. To begin, ensure your pork shoulder steaks are evenly cut and of a similar thickness to promote even cooking. Pat them dry with kitchen roll to help achieve a lovely crisp on the outside.

    Next, season your steaks generously with your choice of herbs and spices; a simple blend of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a hint of smoked paprika works wonders. For an extra layer of flavour, you might consider marinating them in a mixture of olive oil, vinegar, and your preferred seasonings for at least an hour beforehand.

    Preheat your air fryer to around 200°C (390°F). Once ready, place the seasoned pork shoulder steaks in the fryer basket, ensuring they are well spaced to allow for optimal air circulation. Cook them for approximately 12 to 15 minutes, turning them halfway through to ensure they brown evenly. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached at least 70°C (160°F) for safe consumption.

    Once cooked, let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and mouth-watering pork that pairs beautifully with seasonal vegetables or a crisp salad. Enjoy your air-fried pork shoulder steaks!
