Can an air fryer?

If you are looking for a great kitchen appliance that can prepare oily dishes without actually frying them in oil, then look no further than the air fryer! This nifty gadget has become quite popular lately as it allows folks to indulge in traditionally fried foods like chicken wings, french fries, and mozzarella sticks without all the unhealthy grease. Here at Kitchen Craze we decided to put the air fryer to the test and see if it really lives up to all the hype.

What is an Air Fryer?

For those who have not yet discovered this marvel of modern cooking technology, an air fryer is essentially a compact convection oven that circulates hot air around your food which results in crispy goodness without drenching your meal with oil. Think of it this way – an air fryer helps replicate deep-fried perfection using only heated circulating air rather than submerging items in hot oil.

Benefits of Using an Air Fryer

There are multiple benefits when using an air fryer (besides just being healthier). These include:

  • Non-Messy: Unlike traditional frying methods where you need gallons of oil and end up standing amidst a splattering mess while cooking anything on your stove-top or burners.
  • Quick-Cooking: When compared to traditional baking or grilling methods, because they do not require any effort preheating time beyond turning them ON & setting desired settings
  • Less Smelliness: As anyone who has cooked bacon indoors knows all too well – residual smells linger long after finishing making odors even stronger
  • Tastes Like Fried Food: Even though there is no smelly grease-filled pot at work here, however most cooks agree plant-based oils offer terrific flavor enhancements especially when paired with certain spices

Things You CAN Cook In An Air Frye‪r‬

While some may think that an air fryer is limited in terms of available cooking options compared to a deep fryer, the truth is quite different. Here’s what you can prepare in it:

  • Chicken Wings: Crispy chicken wings without all the oil and guilt.
  • French Fries: Golden-brown fries every time – and much healthier for you than fast food or ones soaked with multiple derived oils
  • Fried Vegetables: Everything from onion rings to zucchini sticks taste great when prepared in an air fryer.
  • Reheating Fast-Food: Have last night’s pizza? Just pop it into your ‘air oven’ for crispness.

How Easy Is It To Use?

An air fryer couldn’t be simpler to use – just follow these easy steps:

  1. Set up your appliance on a flat surface where there will be no interferences like curtains or pot-handles so that there already exists at least 2″ gap between both.

  2. Insert calculated amount of food inside (discarding if need any unhealthy portions).

  3. Choose desired temperature setting based on item/quantity/chart

4.Turn ON the Air Fryer & utilize timer either on mechanical dial or digital keypad installed as per model specification.

5.Best part now — serve-up fresh hot meals!

I should also mention since this does get asked regularly; absolutely NO pre-heating needed!
