TIPS & TRICKS
Air frying smaller items or fewer items will require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger
•
items or more items.
Shaking smaller items halfway during the preparation time optimizes the end result and can help
•
prevent unevenly fried foods.
For homemade french fries, soak fresh potatoes in water for 30 minutes. Drain water and add a
•
small amount of oil for a crispy result. Fry your potatoes in the air fryer within a few minutes of
adding the oil.
Snacks that can be prepared in an oven, like chicken nuggets and mozzarella sticks, can also be
•
prepared in the Air Fryer.
The optimal amount of food for this Air Fryer is 1 pound; depending on your ingredients, you
•
may add more or less. A larger amount requires a longer cooking time and more shaking to
ensure food is evenly cooked.
Use store-bought dough to prepare filled snacks like calzones quickly and easily. Items made with
•
store-bought dough will require a shorter preparation time than homemade dough.
Use a baking pan in the Crisper Basket if you want to bake a cake or quiche, or if you want to fry
•
fragile or filled items.
You can also use the Air Fryer to reheat foods. To reheat food, set the Temperature Dial to 300℉
•
and the Timer Dial up to 10 minutes.
