An Air Fryer is basically a smaller convection oven. Instead of lots of oil, it uses convection heat to cook your food and get that signature crispy outside we all want. It’s also FAST – it takes way less time to Air Fry than deep fry or even oven roast your food. And it’s also way less messy.
Air frying uses less oil or sometimes no oil as compared to a traditional deep fryer methods. And food still comes out super crispy and cooks way faster than using a conventional oven. Of course, you need to still think about your food choices if your ultimate goal is weight loss, but there are so many healthy meals and veggie forward dishes that you can make using this awesome appliance.
There are so many choices of Air Fryers out there, it can be confusing as there are different models and sizes. My advice is to skip the smaller air fryers for something that is at least 5 quarts or more, unless you are only cooking for 1-2 people.
