Set your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200°C). Preheating helps in cooking the okra evenly and achieving a crispy texture.

If you choose to season, place the frozen okra in a bowl. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil (this helps the seasonings stick) and sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Toss gently to coat evenly.

Place the frozen (and optionally seasoned) okra in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Ensure they are not overcrowded to allow for even air circulation. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the frozen okra in batches, depending on the amount of okra you are cooking.

Set cook time for 15-20 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, open the air fryer and shake the basket or use tongs to turn the okra. This ensures they get evenly cooked and browned.

The okra should be crispy and golden brown when done. Depending on your air fryer and the size of the okra, you may need to adjust the cooking time slightly.

Once cooked, remove the cooked okra from the air fryer. Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a healthy snack.
