AIR FRY TECHNIQUE

Please consult the Air Fry / Roast Cooking Chart and/or follow package directions for suggested TIME and TEMP.

Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and avoid excess smoke.
To ensure even cooking/browning, ALWAYS open the active basket halfway through the cook time and check, turn, or shake foods in the fryer basket. Some recipes may call to brush or spray oil halfway through cooking. Adjust TEMP or TIME if needed.
- WARNING: Extreme caution must be used when handling any hot fryer basket or TurboCrisp™ tray. Avoid escaping steam from the fryer basket and the food.
- CAUTION: Always use oven mitts when handling the hot air fryer basket.
- CAUTION: Hot oil can collect at the base of the basket. Use caution when removing cooking foods.
To avoid excess smoke when cooking naturally high-fat foods, such as bacon, chicken wings, or sausages, it may be necessary to empty fat from the fryer basket between batches.
To ensure crispiness, make sure the skin or exterior surface of your food is dry! Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods. Create more surface area by cutting food into smaller pieces. Press breading onto food to help it adhere. Refrigerate breaded foods for at least 30.
To improve crispiness, dust poultry skin or exterior surface lightly with corn starch. Spray with oil.
Arrange breaded food in fryer basket so that food is not touching to allow air flow on all surfaces.
Spray oils work best. Oil is distributed evenly, and less oil is needed. Canola, olive, avocado, coconut, grapeseed, peanut, or vegetable oil work well.
Shake air-fried foods out onto the serving area. Promptly insert any fryer basket into the Air Fryer body and lock into place. Continue air frying subsequent batches, if any.
Press REHEAT to air fry food for 6 minutes at 250 °F. Simply pull out the active basket to interrupt air frying at any time to check on the food’s serving temperature. Repeat to extend cook time until food is heated to your liking.
Unplug the Air Fryer when not in use.

AIR FRYING PRE-PACKAGED FROZEN FOODS

As a rule, depending on the food and amount to be cooked, the suggested cook posted cook TIMES may have to be reduced slightly. Always check food halfway through cooking time to determine final cook TIME and TEMP.
Always check cooking progress after the TIME has expired.

HINTS FOR ROAST

IMPORTANT! Consult the USDA Cooking Guidelines section of this instruction manual before cooking begins. Always test meat using an accurate cooking thermometer.

A meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meat should always be used to ensure the desired doneness.
Cook meats to 5 to 10 degrees below desired doneness (internal temperature). Allow the meat to stand 15 to 20 minutes before serving. The temperature will continue to rise while standing.
ROAST large, tender cuts of meat and poultry. Seasoning prior to cooking adds to the flavor and the aroma during cooking.
A layer of fat on the top of the roast promotes better browning and provides natural basting.
To speed up browning, brush lean cuts of meat, chicken, and fish with oil, margarine, or melted butter.
Place meat (fat side up) and turn over halfway through ROAST time.

IMPORTANT: Turn and check food halfway through ROAST time.

HINTS FOR BAKE

When using BAKE, you may need to lower the bake recipe temperature by 50 °F to a minimum of 300 °F.
Check the package directions to determine if the container is suitable for use in an Air Fryer.

AIR FRY / ROAST COOKING CHART

Times are estimated and based on average sizes and weights.

ALWAYS USE A MEAT THERMOMETER TO ENSURE THAT MEAT, POULTRY, AND FISH ARE COOKED THOROUGHLY BEFORE SERVING.

NOTE: Frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times and higher food quality. Adjust the air frying temperature and TIME as necessary to suit your taste.

NOTE: Unless food is pre-packaged and pre-oiled, for browned and crispy results, all foods should be lightly oiled before air frying.

All items are to be air-fried from frozen (do not thaw).

USDA COOKING GUIDELINES

The USDA recommends that meats such as beef and lamb etc. should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 °F/63 °C. Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 °F/71 °C, and poultry products should be cooked to an internal temperature of 170 °F/77 °C to 180 °F/82 °C to be sure any harmful bacteria has been killed. When reheating meat/poultry products, they should also be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 °F/74 °C.
