Recipe Tips

  • Freshness matters: Use crisp, vibrant green mangetout for best texture.
  • Even coating: Toss thoroughly to ensure every pod is flavored.
  • Don’t overcrowd: For crisp results, avoid piling the mangetout too high.
  • Add spice: A pinch of chili flakes brings heat if desired.
  • Quick cleanup: Use parchment paper liners in the air fryer to reduce mess.

Best Sides For Sesame Mangetout

Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer to bring back some crispness.
Freeze: Not ideal—freezing will soften the texture of the mangetout.
