on the type of the ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape
from the pan.
12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate (fig.12).
Tip:
To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to
lift the ingredients out of the basket
13. When a batch of ingredients is ready, the air fryer is instantly
ready for preparing another batch.
- Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausag-
es in the air fryer.
- Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared
in the air fryer.
- The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
- Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and
easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time
than home-made dough.
- Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer basket if you
want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingre-
dients or filled ingredients.
- You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat
ingredients, set the temperature to 150
℃
for up to 10 minutes.
Note:
Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when you start
frying while the air fryer is still cold.
To make home-made fries, follow the steps below.
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Wash the potato sticks thoroughly 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 kitch-
en utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the
sticks in the basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the basket in
one go, to prevent excess oil from ending up on the bottom of
the pan.
This table below helps you to select the basic settings for the
ingredients you want to prepare.
Note:
Keep in mind that these settings are indications. As ingre-
dients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot
guarantee the best setting for your ingredients.
Because the rapid hot air technology instantly reheats the air
inside the appliance, pulling the pan briefly out of the appliance
during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.
Tips
- Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter prepara-
tion 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 optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly
fried ingredients.
- Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your
ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after you added
the oil.
