Creating a roast pork with crispy crackling in an air fryer is a fantastic way to enjoy a classic dish with less oil and in less time than traditional oven roasting. The air fryer circulates hot air around the pork, ensuring it cooks evenly and turns the skin into deliciously crispy crackling. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making air fryer roast pork with crispy crackling.

- Salt: 2 teaspoons (or to taste, for seasoning and crackling)
- Black Pepper: 1 teaspoon
- Garlic Powder: 1 teaspoon
- Olive Oil: 1 tablespoon (for the skin)
- Herbs: Optional (such as rosemary or thyme for additional flavor)
Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Sharp Knife
- Paper Towels
