A GUIDE TO INGREDIENTS AND HINTS AND TIPS
• Do not cook extremely oily or greasy food, such as sausages, in the Air Fryer. Hot oil can
spit onto the heating element and cause the appliance to smoke.
• You can cook snacks that would normally be cooked in an oven in the Air Fryer.
• You can use the Air Fryer to reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for
10 minutes.
• Cut food into even sizes for even cooking.
CHIPS
We recommend Maris Piper and King Edward potatoes for making chips. Store them in a
dark cellar or in a cool cupboard away from light.
When you have peeled your potatoes, wash them thoroughly before cutting, and wash
again once they have been cut - this will remove the starch.
Dry the chips using a highly absorbent clean tea towel or kitchen towel.
Coat your chips in oil and cook within a few minutes of adding the oil.
The thinner the chips, the crispier they will be. The thicker the chips, the fluffier on the
inside they will be.
Change the cooking time according to the thickness of your chips. If you prefer chips to
be crispy, try cooking for a couple more minutes.
To add a different taste to your chips, you can coat them in different types of oil.
You can also cook frozen chips in the Digital Compact Air Fryer, as they are pre-cooked
there is no need to add oil.
