Tips:
– Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
– A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time; a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time.
– Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimized the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
– You can coat fresh potatoes with a little oil for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after you have added the oil.
– Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
– Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
– The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
– Use the pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. The pre- made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than homemade dough.
– You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients by setting the temperature to 150°C and the timer to about 10 minutes.

MAKING HOMEMADE FRIES:

For the best results, we advise using pre-baked fries. If you want to make home-made fries, follow the steps below:

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.

2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.

3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.

4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the frying basket.
   Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the frying basket in one go, to prevent excess oil from collecting at the bottom of the frying basket.

5. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in the settings page.
