| Your air fryer may come with tons of fancy presets or simply temperatures and time controls, but either way your air fryer is going to cook the most delicious food! Trust us, here at Delish we did A LOT of testing to make sure every recipe in this book can be made regardless of your air fryer model. We also picked up LOTS of helpful tips and tricks along the way! |
|
| TIP 1 | Pre-Heating is
Unnecessary! | | Unlike the oven, you can start using your air fryer instantly! Just place your food in the basket, set the temp and timer and let it go! |

| TIP 2 | Parchment Paper is
Your New BFF. | | Most air fryers have holes or grates at the bottom, which can make wet, batter foods tricky. The easy fix — parchment paper — less mess, easy, and still fries up deliciously! |

| TIP 3 | You Need to Cook
in Batches. | | In 99% of air fryer recipes, your food needs to be in a single layer to ensure an even cook. Just like with roasting, too much leads to less-than-crispy results. |

| TIP 4 | Oil is Almost Always
Unnecessary. | | You don’t need oil (or butter) for crunchy results. Less grease = a healthier option for you! Our “Fried” Pickles (page 10) and Coconut Shrimp (page 53) prove this. |
