Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
A larger quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time than smaller
quantities.
Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimises the end result and
can help to prevent unevenly-fried food.
Apply some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a
few minutes of adding the oil.
Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To do this, set the device to 150 °C for up to
10 minutes.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks of your preferred size.
Soak the sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and sit them on kitchen
paper to dry.
Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil into a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until they are coated
with oil.
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 on the baking tray in the pan.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks into the pan in one go, otherwise you risk excess oil
collecting at the bottom.
Fry the sticks according to the settings in the table.
Tips
Making Home-Made Fries

coating. If you would rather make home-made fries, follow the steps below.
