Fun with Air Fryer

Tweet

I've been having fun with the air fryer lid to my instapot lately. Alright, so, it does well with things like - french fries, corn dogs, chicken and fish patties ... all that pre-breaded kinds of things that you can take home and bake. It makes things crispy outside and soft inside and doesn't heat up the house. Though, if you have one of those copper baskets for the oven it's about the same difference. However you can make other things in it which is pretty awesome! Here's a few of my favorites - Home-made potato chips - yes, it's doable! Downside - it takes a long time since you cannot stack things in there, and it's putsy Cheese-curds - oh yes! I was so happy to discover that you can make your own cheese curds in the instant pot. They got wonderful and at least were minus the oil of traditional deep frying Carrot "bacon" - one of the more original recipes that I've found for the air fryer . Slice your carrot in long, thin strips with a peeler. Marinate in a concotion of liquid smoke, maple syrup and spices and air fry. Seriously, it isn't that far off of actual bacon. Steak Fries and fried onions. How easy and tasty! Wash your potato and chop it and your onion into long strips / wedges. Put a small amount of oil and whatever seasoning you like. Oh! And how you get things to crisp - is you use a spray of cooking oil. Here's a link to my air frying lid review - I did it before I tried these recipes :-)
