About this recipe
The dish is a simple, handheld meat patty that’s crispy on the outside and juicy inside, thanks to the air‑fryer’s rapid hot air circulation. The combination of Edamer and Parmesan cheeses adds a rich, melty texture, while the ham provides a subtle smoky note. A sprinkle of sweet paprika, salt, and black pepper rounds out the flavor profile.
Serve the patties hot straight from the air fryer, paired with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal. They also make a convenient protein‑rich snack for on‑the‑go days.
