The white zucchini parmigiana in the air fryer is one of those recipes that, once you try it, you will hardly abandon. And the reasons are really many. First of all, you can cook the courgettes directly in the fryer , which makes the recipe really practical and quick. You can also add bechamel (even ready-made) between one layer and another to obtain a unique taste and body. We offer you the basic recipe, i.e. without béchamel, but we guarantee that it is truly amazing.
In short, the white zucchini parmigiana in an air fryer is a must try. We have also added cooked ham and scamorza cheese between the layers but the first one, if you want a vegetarian version, you can also omit it.
How to make white zucchini parmesan recipe in an air fryer
- First wash the zucchini and remove the ends. Then, with the help of a sharp knife or a mandolin, cut them into slices about 3-4 mm thick.
- Arrange them in a single layer, lightly oiling them, directly into the air fryer basket. Then cook them at 180°C for 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, cut the scamorza into slices and set aside.
- Then assemble the parmigiana in a pan of a size suitable to be contained in the fryer basket. Start by oiling the bottom of the pan and then forming a first layer of zucchini, ham and sliced cheese. Season each layer with Parmesan cheese and also add some breadcrumbs to absorb the moisture from the zucchini.
- Proceed like this until you get 3 complete layers then close with a simple one of zucchini and parmesan. Cook everything at 180°C for 15 minutes then let it cool down for a few minutes before serving.
Always in the air fryer you can also prepare an excellent classic parmigiana. The beauty of this appliance is that you don't have to turn on the oven which, in the summer, is a real godsend!
