Air-fry the pork

  • Place the pork skin-side up in the air fryer.
  • Cook at 180–190°C (355–375°F) for 30–40 minutes, flipping once halfway through so the skin faces down briefly.

  • After 30 minutes, flip again so the skin is up, and cook at 210°C (410°F) for 5~10 more minutes to crisp the skin. (Adjust time and temperature based on your air fryer.)
