Notes

Avocado Preparation: When cutting the avocados into wedges, choose ones that are ripe but still firm. This ensures that the avocado wedges hold their shape during the dredging and cooking process. To easily cut the avocados into wedges, slice them in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and then slice each half into quarters.
Dredging Technique: To achieve a crispy coating on the avocado wedges, ensure each wedge is thoroughly coated in the flour mixture, beaten eggs, and Panko crumbs. Use one hand for dipping the avocado wedges in the wet ingredients (flour mixture and beaten eggs) and the other hand for coating them in the dry ingredients (Panko crumbs). This prevents the mixture from clumping and ensures an even coating on each wedge.
Garlic Aioli Dipping Sauce: While the avocado wedges are cooking, prepare the garlic aioli dipping sauce. Whisk together the light mayonnaise, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and crushed garlic in a small bowl. Adjust the amount of garlic according to your preference for a stronger or milder garlic flavor. Serve the garlic aioli alongside the crispy air-fried avocado wedges for a delicious dipping experience.
