4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
3 cloves garlic, finely minced

Directions

1 Combine mayonnaise, garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
2 Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer instructions.
3 Combine olive oil, rosemary, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl; set aside to blend flavors.
4 Combine parsnips, potatoes, carrots, and onion in a large bowl; stir in olive oil-rosemary mixture until vegetables are evenly coated.
5 Place a single layer of vegetables in the air fryer basket; add a rack and another single layer of vegetables on rack. Set remaining vegetables aside. Air fry vegetables for 15 minutes.
6 Transfer air-fried vegetables to a plate and keep warm, or continue air frying, in 5 minute intervals, until vegetables reach desired doneness and browning.
7 Place remaining vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket, adding the rack and another single layer of vegetables if needed. Air fry until vegetables reach desired doneness and browning, about 15 minutes, checking for doneness, as needed. Serve with aioli; garnish with lemon zest.
