7.3. AIR FRYING TIPS
EN
■
Cooking oils, such as canola, sunflower, or vegetable oil, work well for air frying.
■
Please add oil as required. Unless foods are pre-packaged and pre-greased, use a little
cooking oil (only 1-2 tablespoons) on certain foods to ensure a crisp and golden result.
■
For crispier results, always pat dry foods with kitchen paper before adding oil and cooking.
Rub, brush, or spray cooking oil evenly onto foods.
■
Cut foods into smaller pieces to create more surface area for crisping.
■
When cooking meats, place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket to allow even
browning and ensure the pieces can be cooked through.
■
To make crispy homemade fries or potato wedges, soak freshly peeled and cut potatoes in
water for 30 minutes. Pat dry with kitchen paper, and then rub with 1 tablespoon of cooking
oil before air frying.
■
Do not prepare extremely fatty foods, such as sausages, in the air fryer.
■
Use a baking pan in the air fryer basket to bake a cake or quiche, or to air fry delicate or
filled ingredients.
■
You can use store-bought dough to prepare filled snacks, such as calzones, quickly and
easily. Foods made with store-bought dough requires less preparation time than homemade
dough.
■
The air fryer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 150 °C for approximately
10 minutes.
8. CLEANING AND CARE
WARNING: Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet and
allow it to cool down completely.
WARNING: To avoid electrical hazards, never immerse the main unit, power cord or
plug in water or any liquid. Never rinse them under the tap.
■
Clean the appliance after each use.
■
IMPORTANT: Never use solvents, chemical or abrasive cleaning agents, wire brushes,
sharp objects or scouring pads to clean the appliance.
■
Wipe the exterior of the main unit with a soft, moist cloth.
■
When required, clean the heating elements with a soft cleaning brush to remove any food
residue.
■
Wipe the cooking cavity with a soft cloth, moistened with warm water. Allow to air dry
completely.
■
Clean the fryer basket and airflow tray in warm soapy water with a soft sponge. To remove
stubborn food residues, fill the air fryer basket with warm water and add a little dishwashing
liquid. Place the airflow tray inside and soak for 10 minutes before cleaning. Dry thoroughly
after cleaning.
■
Allow all parts to dry completely before closing the air fryer basket.
■
Store the appliance unplugged, in a cool, clean and dry place.
■
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
