Helpful Hints

1. Olive oil or vegetable oil works well for air frying.
2. Use your Air Fryer to cook pre-packaged foods with a fraction of the oil, in a fraction of the time! As a general rule, lower the recipe baking temperature by 10°C and reduce the cooking time by 30% to 50% depending on the food and amount.
3. Do not overfill the frying basket with food. NEVER fill any frying basket more than 2/3 full. When air frying fresh vegetables, we do not recommend adding more than 3 cups of food to the frying basket.
4. For best results, some foods need to be shaken vigorously or turned over during the air fry time.
5. Consult the Cooking Guide as a general reference guide.
6. To avoid excess smoke, when cooking naturally high-fat foods, such as chicken wings or sausages, it may be necessary to empty fat from the frying basket drawer between batches.
7. Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and avoid excess smoke.
8. Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods.
9. Press breading onto food to help it adhere. Arrange in the frying basket so that food is not touching to allow airflow on all surfaces.
10. The Air Fryer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 200°C for up to 10 minutes.

COOKING GUIDE

WARNING! ALWAYS USE A MEAT THERMOMETER TO ENSURE THAT MEAT, POULTRY, AND FISH ARE COOKED THOROUGHLY BEFORE EATING. The following chart is intended as a guide only. The quantity of food air-fried at one time, the thickness or density of the food, and whether the food is fresh, thawed, or frozen may alter the total cooking time necessary.

1. To ensure even cooking/browning, open the frying basket drawer halfway through the cooking time. Check, turn, or vigorously shake foods in the frying basket. This chart lists the average total air frying time, the time at which some action is required, and what action is to be taken for best results.
2. Remember, frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times and higher food quality. Adjust air frying temperatures and times as necessary to suit your taste.
