Roast Beef in an Air Fryer (Juicy and Tender)

Things you need:

Roast beef (like top round or ribeye roast) weighing 800g to 1kg
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tsp of garlic powder
1 tsp of black pepper
1 tsp of paprika
A good pinch of salt
Rosemary or thyme is optional.

How to do it:

Take the beef out of the fridge and let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes. This will help it cook evenly.
Dry it off, then rub olive oil all over it.
Combine the herbs, garlic powder, pepper, paprika, and salt.
Put this seasoning all over the meat.
Set your air fryer to 200°C / 400°F.
To get a nice crust, cook the beef for 10 minutes.
Reduce the heat to 180°C (350°F) and cook for another 25 to 35 minutes, or until it is done to your liking:
Medium rare: about 25 minutes
Medium: 30 to 35 minutes
Take it out and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes before cutting it (this is very important).
Cut it up, and you'll see that the inside is juicy and soft, just like in the picture.
