COOKING ADVICE

•
Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter
cooking time than larger ingredients.
•
Shaking smaller ingredients halfway during the
preparation time optimizes the end result and can help
prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
•
Never overfill, as this will damage the air fryer. Use
caution when removing the cooking chamber from the
unit, as contents will be very hot.
•
A small amount of water (3–4 tbsp.) can be added to the
cooking chamber for steaming food. Use caution when
removing the cooking chamber from the unit, as
ingredients and any remaining steam or water will be
very hot.
•
Because the rapid air technology reheats the air inside
the appliance instantly, pulling the cooking chamber out
of the appliance briefly during hot air frying barely
disturbs the process.
•
Frozen foods, such as fries, chicken nuggets and fish
sticks can be prepared by following the cooking chart on
page 10.
•
Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be
prepared in the air fryer.
•
Place an oven-safe dish in the air fryer cooking
chamber when baking a cake or quiche.
•
For a crispy texture, spritz vegetable, olive or non-stick
oil over ingredients in the cooking chamber.
•
You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients by
setting the temperature to 300°F for up to 10 minutes.
