Trim the stalks and any yellowing or damaged leaves from the sprouts if needed.
Give them a quick rinse in a bowl of clean water, then leave them to drain. Alternatively pat them dry with a clean tea towel.
Cut each sprout in half from top to bottom with a sharp knife. It's good to have them all more or less the same size, so you may need to cut larger sprouts into thirds or quarters. Remove any leaves that fall off. Loose leaves will just burn in the air fryer.
Place the sprout halves in a mixing bowl. Add the oil and seasoning then give everything a really good stir to ensure the sprouts are evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer if necessary. Transfer the sprouts from the bowl to the air fryer drawer and arrange into a single layer if you can.
Set the air fryer to 190℃ (375℉) and cook for four minutes. Give the basket a good shake and cook for a further four minutes. Give the basket another shake and cook for a further two to six minutes. How long it actually takes depends on your air-fryer, how crowded the basket is and how big your sprouts are. They should look caramelised all over, but the best way to test for doneness is to try one. If they need longer give them another blast. I "fry" mine for twelve minutes in total.
Serve immediately whilst hot and crisp.
