There’s no question that air fryers have taken the culinary world by storm, offering a healthier, more convenient alternative to traditional deep frying. These innovative kitchen appliances let you enjoy your favourite crispy dishes without the grease and the guilt. There’s even an explosion of air fryer recipes in recent years, with recommendations from full-time mums (or dads) to world-class chefs.
For those in the dark, an air fryer is essentially a convection oven with a fan that circulates hot air around your food, cooking it evenly and quickly. Unlike deep frying, which requires submerging food in hot oil, air frying uses a minimal amount of oil or even none at all. This means you can enjoy crispy, golden-brown food with significantly fewer calories, fat, and unhealthy additives.
