Method
Preheat the air‑fryer to 350°F.
Place a sheet of parchment paper in the air‑fryer basket and lightly spray it with cooking spray oil.
Arrange the carrot strips on the parchment in a nest shape, leaving a small well in the center.
Crack the egg into the well of the carrot nest.
Season with salt, black pepper, and gochugaru (or any spices you prefer).
Air‑fry for 8–9 minutes, or until the egg white is set; adjust the time if you prefer a runny yolk.
