Many foods that can be fried can be AirFried without using excess amounts
of oil . AirFried foods will taste lighter and be less greasy than deep-fried
foods .
AirFrying doesn't require oil, but a light spray can enhance browning and
crispiness . Use an oil sprayer or a nonstick olive oil cooking spray to keep
it extra light, a pastry brush to evenly coat, or pour a little oil into a bowl,
add food, and toss .
Most oils can be used for AirFrying . Olive oil is preferred for a richer flavour .
Vegetable, canola or grapeseed oils are recommended for milder flavours .
An assortment of coatings can be used on AirFried foods . Some examples
of different crumb mixtures include: breadcrumbs, seasoned breadcrumbs,
panko breadcrumbs, crushed cornflakes, potato chips, and graham
crackers . Various flours, including gluten-free, and other dry foods like
cornmeal work as well .
Most foods do not need to be flipped during cooking, but larger items,
like chicken cutlets, should be turned halfway through the cooking cycle
to ensure evenly cooked and browned results .
X
When AirFrying large quantities of food that fill the pan, toss food halfway
X
through the cooking cycle to ensure evenly cooked results and colour .
X
Use higher temperatures for foods that cook quickly, like bacon and chips,
and lower temperatures for foods that take longer to cook, like breaded
chicken .
Foods will cook more evenly if they are cut into the same-size pieces .
X
Please note that many foods release water when they cook . When cooking
large quantities for an extended period of time, condensation may build up,
which could leave moisture on your countertop .
