Easy Roasted Swede - Air Fryer & Oven Option

Roasting swede, or rutabaga as it's known in other parts, is a delightful way to bring out its sweet, earthy flavour. This versatile vegetable can be prepared in both an air fryer and an oven, making it a convenient addition to any meal.

To start, peel the swede and cut it into evenly sized cubes, ensuring they cook uniformly. Toss the pieces in a generous drizzle of olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and perhaps a sprinkle of your favourite herbs for an extra flavour boost.

For the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 180°C. Place the seasoned swede cubes in the basket, ensuring they're not overcrowded to allow for even cooking. Air fry for about 20–25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure a perfect golden finish.

For the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C. Spread the swede cubes on a baking tray lined with parchment. Roast for approximately 30–35 minutes, turning them halfway through for even browning.

Whether you choose the air fryer or the oven, you'll be rewarded with deliciously caramelised swede that complements any roast dinner or can be enjoyed as a healthy snack on its own. Perfectly simple and utterly scrumptious!
