Helpful Hints
1. Olive oil spray 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 50F / 10C and reduce the cooking time by 30% to
50% depending on the food and amount.
3. Do not overfill 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.
Consult the Air Frying Chart following as a general guide.
5. 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.
6. Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and avoid excess smoke.
7. Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods. Press breading onto food to help it adhere. Arrange in
frying basket so that food is not touching to allow air flow on all surfaces.
8. The Air Fryer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 300F / 150C for up to 10 minutes.
Air Frying Chart
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 assure 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 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Unless food is pre-packaged and pre-oiled, for browned and crispy results,
all foods should be lightly oiled before air frying.
• Oil may be sprayed or brushed onto foods.
• Spray oils work well as oil is evenly distributed and smaller quantities of oil are needed.
• To ensure crispy results, make sure foods are dried before adding oil.
• Cut pieces smaller to create more surface area for crispier results.
• Blanching is a term that refers to pre-cooking foods at a lower temperature before the final air fry.
• Add 3 minutes to the AIR FRY TIME to allow the Air Fryer to preheat.

145ºF/63ºC. Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160ºF/71ºC and poultry products should be
cooked to an internal temperature of 170ºF/77ºC - 180ºF/82ºC to be sure any harmful bacteria has been killed.
When reheating meat/poultry products, they should also be cooked to an internal temperature of 165ºF/74ºC
