Use an Air fryer like a pro

Our top tips for the perfect crisp crumb and succulent bite every time.

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Just like with a conventional oven, it’s important to preheat your air fryer before cooking. This helps ensure that your food cooks evenly and efficiently.
  2. Use oil sparingly: Air fryers use little to no oil compared to the traditional deep-frying method. Too much oil can cause food to become greasy and soggy.
  3. Don’t overcrowd the basket: To ensure that your food cooks evenly, don’t put too much in the basket. Space between the pieces of food allows for proper airflow and a crispier final result.
  4. Shake or flip your food: To ensure even cooking, shake or flip your food halfway through the cooking process. This will help ensure that all sides are evenly cooked.
  5. Experiment with seasonings: Air fryers are versatile and can cook various foods. Experiment with different seasonings to create unique and delicious dishes.
  6. Clean your air fryer regularly: Regular cleaning is essential to ensure your air fryer works properly and lasts a long time. Remove food residue and grease from the basket and tray after each use.
