A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time. - Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients. - Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the Hot-air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil. - Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the Hot-air fryer. - Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared in the Hot-air fryer. - The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 300 grams. - Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough. - Place a baking tin (not included on this appliance) or oven dish in the Hot-air fryer basket if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients - You can also use the Hot-air fryer to reheat ingredients.
