“Anything you can bake you can make in an air fryer — chicken breasts, burgers, steak, lamb chops — they don't have to be breaded. The air fryer cooks them to the perfect temperature — they're juicy and tender,” Crawford says. Air fryers are great for cooking vegetables.
Toss the fries with the oil in a medium bowl, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Working in batches if necessary, put the fries in an even layer in the air fryer basket with no overlapping and cook, turning them halfway through, until golden brown and crisp, 14 to 16 minutes.
You can't just throw your food in and then set the temperature — as with most other cooking methods, you need to preheat the air fryer before you use it. The same is true of food made in the air fryer. You should preheat your air fryer for ten minutes before you start cooking.
