Cooking tips
Here are a few tips for best use and optimal operation
of your magic bullet
avoid cooking without
any food:
• In general, one should not
operate the magic bullet
Fryer for long periods of time
when the Fry Pot is empty.
The one exception is when
running the fryer empty for
3 minutes during preheating.
avoid frying when full:
• Don't overload the Fry Pot
with food. Leave some space
(about 5 cm) at the top
of the pot.
proper food prep:
• We recommend preparing
certain foods before inserting
them into the magic bullet
Air Fryer. Peel or remove skin
as needed, and chop food
items down to the right size —
small enough to fit easily into
the Fry Pot, without having to
force items inside.
turn food often:
• Due to its smaller size, the
Air Fryer's Fry Pot has less
surface area on which to
crisp food. To ensure your
ingredients get brown all
over, you may need to turn
your food more frequently
during the cooking process.

frying time:

different foods. Smaller food
items may require shorter

®
cooking times than larger
foods, so be careful not
to overcook.
• For better cooking
performance with smaller
foods (such as French Fries),
remove the Fry Pot and turn
food halfway through
cooking. For example, if your
desired cooking time is 10
minutes, take food out and
turn at 5 minutes. Make sure
to hold handle firmly and to
avoid spillage.
• Once food is done cooking,
®
don't remove the Fry Pot right
away. Wait a few seconds
first. Make sure the unit is
turned off and ensure frying
action has completely
stopped before removing
the Fry Pot from the Base.
Use caution when removing
the Fry Pot as there may be
hot steam.
use a utensil to
remove food:
• After you've finished cooking,
use a utensil (never your
hands or fingers) to remove
food from inside the Fry Pot.
