Steps

  1. 1Arrange ingredients in air fryer

    Place the salmon fillet in the air fryer basket. Add the feta block, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and garlic around it. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and chilli flakes.

    Arrange the ingredients so the salmon and feta have good airflow for even cooking.

  2. 2Air fry the salmon and vegetables20 min

    Air fry at 200°C for 15-20 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and the tomatoes are softened.

    Check the salmon at 15 minutes; it should flake easily with a fork when done.

  3. 3Cook the pasta

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving a splash of pasta water.

    The starchy pasta water will help create a creamy sauce when mixed with the feta.

  4. 4Mix everything together

    Add the cooked pasta to the air fryer basket. Break up the salmon and feta, then toss everything together until the feta melts into a creamy sauce. Add a splash of pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.

    The residual heat from the air fryer will help melt the feta into a silky coating.
