Tips:
Smaller foods usually require slightly shorter cooking time than larger foods. During cooking, stirring the food once can ensure that all the food is cooked evenly. It is recommended to add a little vegetable oil to fresh potatoes to get a crisper effect. Vegetable oils can only be added before the cooking process begins.  Baked cakes, waffles and fragile foods should be put on the baking pan and put in the air frying pan and oven.You can also cook food in an air frying pan or oven. Just set the temperature to 160 ° C for up to 10 minutes. Cut into thin slices of about 5mm and place the airflow rack evenly in the oven. It is better to keep a little space in the middle to facilitate the circulation of hot air. As with cooking, you may want to vary these settings according to your taste and the quantity you cook. Always check that your food is completely cooked before serving. If you are unsure, return it to the air fryer oven for a further cooking time period until it is fully cooked.
