Update: My aunt's air fryer broccoli trick leaves it soggy for me
She tosses it in oil and cooks it straight for ten minutes. I pat the florets dry first and shake the basket halfway. We argued about it at Sunday lunch. Her way makes the stems too soft, but mine stays crisp every time.

I always thought the oil first step was key, but drying the florets first is a total game changer.

Tbh I used to skip the drying step too until I burned a batch. Ngl moisture is the real enemy, not lack of oil. Getting them totally dry first makes the oil stick way better so you get that crispy edge every time.

Saw my friend Mark try drying the florets first last week. He usually just oils them right away, but this time he patted them dry with paper towels. The florets came out SO crispy, like restaurant-level good. He kept raving about how it changed his whole roast veggie GAME. Now I'm definitely trying it next time I make cauliflower.
