Tried making an egg-in-a-hole style sandwich in the air fryer and this thing turned out ridiculous 🤤

I’ve been trying to eat healthier and up my protein so I bought an air fryer. I fried the chicken at 375 for 17 and it came out super juicy! The eggs were also air fried! I’m hooked

Made calamari in the air fryer and it actually came out tender and crunchy — no deep fryer needed.

Ingredients

• 2 medium calamari, sliced into rings
• Flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Salt
• Panko
• Olive oil spray

Instructions

1. Dip the calamari rings in flour → egg + salt → panko.
2. Lay them in the air fryer tray in one layer.
3. Spray with olive oil from a few angles so the coating gets covered.
4. Air fry at 330°F for 18 minutes, no preheat.(turn halftime）
5. Once they’re golden brown-ish and crispy, they’re done.

I’ve (stupidly) had this happen to multiple air fryers where the coating chips. It took me way too long to realize it’s because I’ve let bacon grease sit too long in it. Should I toss this basket? Probably not safe to use long term right?

The brand is “Aconatic”. I don’t what the coating is or anything. Am I cooked?

I made poached eggs in my air fryer and I am so happy with the result... a perfectly

Chopped russet potatoes into thin ish fry shape, threw them in the air fryer at 425 for 25 minutes.

No oil no salt no nothing. Didn’t flip or turn. Just waited till they were brown.

After words I sprayed them with some olive oil and added a generous amount of Australian chippy salt.

I love my air fryer so much.

Hi! One of my family members bought Ninja Crispi on a website with (usually) second hand things in my country. It was unopened though, apparently an unwanted gift. We compared it with mine (bought in the store) and most things seem to be exactly the same (also while trying to use it) but there are some little details that don’t match.

1. The packaging looks the same but it’s smaller. Everything else is the same, just a bit smaller box. Is it a very bad sign?
2. Plastic in the back seems to be a bit different, warning triangles too.
   Attaching pictures.
   How worried should we be that it’s a counterfeit?

I've been trying to get my chicken perfected in the air fryer recently, and I've always been scared of cooking big chunky breast meat because I'm worried about raw middle.

So I'd been sticking to thinner cuts, but they dry out and don't taste nearly as good. Got a digital wireless meat thermometer and now I get it right every time.

My rough recipe/method:

- Score the breasts with a knife a few times to help the marinade and cooking time.

- Throw breasts into a mixing bowl, add a few dollops of greek yogurt.

- Add a few teaspoons of Patak Madras seasoning paste (I like the Indian/Pakistani flavours). Mix it all up in the bowl, and then cover and leave in the fridge to marinade. I have this on rotation now so I'm marinating for 1-2 days.

- lay out the meat in the air fryer, and put the thermometer through the biggest meat. I use it like a kebab skewer and rejoin the cuts I made to keep the meat together.

- I used a ninja AF500UK (dual zone/megazone). Setting was roast, and I put 40 mins on the timer but I use the app to tell me when to remove.

- app tells you to remove when it hits about 70 degrees internally, and it will cook itself to 75. Rest and slice. Cool for 20 mins and fridge with leftovers in a tupperware.

From what I understand, Ninja has a stronger reputation and more trust as a brand overall. Cosori, on the other hand, feels more modern and aesthetically refined, but it doesn’t seem to have the same long-term reputation or brand trust yet. Should I trust the Cosori?

Hello i just bought new bosch air fryer, and after running it for 30 minutes at 200 degrees, as manual said, i saw this small pimple like thing (near top left corner), when i took wooden spoon to remove it, a part of it stayed and i am wondering did i damage non stick coating as it could be toxic. Thanks in advance.

I don’t mean to start drama, but you might never throw away potato peels again after this 😄🥔 I had a pile sitting on the counter and instead of tossing them, I seasoned them and threw them in the air fryer… They came out crispy, golden, and honestly taste like chips — maybe even better.

2 cups Potato Peels Peels from 2 pounds of Russet or Gold potatoes. About 4-5 medium sized potatoes

1 Tablespoon Olive oil Extra Virgin olive oil or Avocado oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon Seasoning I use a mix of 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 paprika. Feel free to use your favorite spices and herbs.

Optional

1 Teaspoon Dried Rosemary or dried Thyme

Instructions

Scrub the potatoes thoroughly under cold running water. Use a vegetable brush if needed. Once cleaned, use a peeler to remove the skins. Try to get even peels for consistent cooking. Remember, thinner peels will become crispier. Rinse the peels under cool running water. This helps to eliminate the extra potato starch. Pat them dry with a cotton kitchen towel or paper towel.

Season. Toss the peels in a bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and any other seasonings of your choice. The beauty of making your own air fryer potato peels lies in the ability to customize the flavors. You can go simple with just salt and pepper. Or you can add spices like paprika, garlic powder, and rosemary.

Preheat and arrange the peels. Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for 3 minutes. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect crunch. Spread the seasoned potato peels in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking. If you have a large batch, cook them in multiple batches for the best results. Overlapping peels can lead to uneven cooking and soggy spots.

Air fry. Cook the potato peels at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes to prevent burning. The peels should be golden brown and crispy when done.

Oven Baked Potato Peels. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and to make cleanup easier. Spread the seasoned potato peels in a single layer on the baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding; give each piece space to crisp up properly.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Once the oven is hot, place the baking sheet with potato peels on the middle rack. Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking halfway through to toss them around for even cooking. Keep an eye on them as baking times can vary depending on your oven and the thickness of the peels. You'll know they're ready when they turn a beautiful golden brown and are crispy to the touch.
