    One thing is I ALWAYS cut my Brussel sprouts in half, even the small ones. They may end up a bit crispier than the others, but I’m wanting to avoid the insides steaming themselves. Steamed whole Brussel sprouts is typically the flavor people hate and simply cutting them in half and roasting / air frying makes them one of the best veggies

You don't need a culinary degree, you just need to enjoy yourself and keep an open mind to using modern tools that snob chefs look down on, like the air fryer.. Way to stay passionate, Mike. And thanks for the inspiration.

    This is a fantastic video. Your passion for food transfers easily through the screen. Since I've just bought an airfryer, this helps me out a lot. Testing costs a lot of time and food! Although that salmon looks a little overcooked, I would still like to thank you for the outstanding work. That machine is a kitchen game changer and I'm looking forward to experimenting more with it.

    I’m so happy I found your channel. I’m binge watching your vids today. Since I live alone I had to learn how to cook differently. After I bought my Cosori air fryer I use it twice a day. I living a keto lifestyle and have had so much success. I believe much of that has to do with the ease of cooking in the air fryer. I don’t have to heat up the kitchen with the oven and can make each meal fresh one hamburger, piece of chicken, steak or whatever. I just bought my son one for Christmas. Barb from Buffalo ❤️

The main reason I'm replying to you is i bought my son an air fryer as well and giving to him on Christmas. I know he will look at me weird but I'm sure he will fall in love with it. I also provided him a small book of my recipes that he loves! I'm going to send him the link to this video after Christmas. Except for the falafels, all the other things are a staple in his diet i.e. brussels, salmon, broccoli, wings :)

      great idea, I was thinking of a way to pull it out in once piece with those super high side walls. There has to be a way to pull the tray out, but parchment sounds easy. Does the salmon need the airflow underneath for any reason? In other recipes I avoid putting anything over the bottom tray just to maintain the airflow.

    For best results with any air fryer you should always preheat it. The other important thing is to never spray cold oil into a hot air fryer. The cold oil tends to weld itself into the no stick surface. To avoid enameling oil onto your no stick surface spray the oil onto your food instead just before you toss it into the hot basket. enameled oil makes your air fryer smoke and more likely to burn or leave an unwanted taste on your food. Air fryers work best when surfaces are immaculately clean and preheated.

    When my sister and I bought this small home a year ago I suggested we replace the large toaster with a toaster oven. We rarely use the oven and it is expensive to heat up for just the 2 of us. She was excited and bought an Emeril one. It is huge and does everything. Later I saw your videos. Please note I am not a chef but love cooking for friends and family. I will use the Emmeril machine sometimes to keep her happy. But I later saw your videos and you simplified it! I bought the Cosori. And with your videos you took the mystic out of it. In fact I learned so much more. I grew up with a gas stove complete with a pilot light. Here they have no gas hookups? I was told it isn’t allowed. Anyway. I bought the the one you use and it is so simple to use! Thank you for changing my mind.

In addition to the dishes you showed I regularly cook breadcrumbed cauliflower florets, simple layered nachos, longanisa (small sausages from the Philippines), and cubed homestyle potatoes. All quick, super tasty snacks or meal parts.

    Everything I've cooked in this unit has come out great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB ! Everything tastes so good. Some of the recipes I've changed a little to improve the taste. For instance, for french fries which call for no oil, I spray them with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. They come out great! It makes the best toast I have ever eaten. The recipe I use calls for lightly buttering both sides of the bread. It calls for cooking at 400 degrees for 5 minutes on one side and then 2 minutes on the other side. This time has a lot to do with the kind of bread you are using...so keep an eye on it. Also, the fans in this Ninja are a lot stronger than other air fryers. So lay a metal spoon or something on the bread to keep it from flying around. It's a little extra work to use your Ninja as a toaster but it is worth it!

      My flat came with an air fryer. I had no idea what to use it for, so I mostly just ignored it. My flatmate always reheats his pizza in the oven, and it works well enough (though he overcooks it IMO), but it takes *a lot* of time. So one weekend, hungry, hungover, and with only half a pizza to my name until my paycheck arrived on Monday, I tried the air fryer.
      Imagine my surprise when the 2 slices of pizza I put in came out *perfectly done* after, like, 3 minutes. I even added some extra cheese on top (because there is no such thing as "enough cheese"), and it melted *perfectly*. Took little to no time, no preheating, NOTHING. Put in, set the timer to 3, take out, eat amazing pizza.
      I fell in love instantly.

    I make a small breakfast in the air fryer every morning. I saw some techniques for making egg toast and do a simple version with a piece of bread + a mayo wall around the outside, put dots of sriracha on top, then crack and egg in the middle + salt & pepper. Pressing an indent in the bread with a spoon first helps to keep the yolk in the middle. 375ish (never buy one with a dial...) for 9 minutes. Let it sit in the warm air fryer for a few minutes if you don't like your egg to be runny. Simple, spicy and good.

Then flip at the 5 min mark and let it go for another 5 minutes and perfection. The cheese is perfectly melted and the bread is not flattened out. Delicious. A definite must try. Serve with your favorite chicken noodle soup and you’ll have a new fall favorite. If you want to kick it up a notch add two hot dogs sliced in half and enjoy. Umami.

I spritz them with oil and sprinkle them with salt and air fry them for about 5 to 10 minutes on high heat. Obviously, I put them in a little dish so that the juices don’t get all over the air fryer.

      I recently got one as well, after resisting getting "another appliance" for years. If you get a dry result, it means the time & temperature were not ideal for that product and the amount of it. Similar to sous vide, it's all about playing with the parameters until you find the sweet spot. Note it down and now you basically can't miss. The only other parameter is the thickness of the product, which you can control by cutting, pounding, or otherwise preparing prior.

      Don’t worry. This is the first lesson Everyone must learn when cooking with an Air Fryer. I have an Philips XXL and it’s great, but like every cooking device You have to observe the 3 T’s of cooking, Temp, Thickness, and Time. I believe that putting the product on BLAST with 360-400F is ridiculous since the oil and the moisture in the Product has to become liquid in order to have a crunch and cook. I personally preheat and cook at 165/330-180/360 range. I usually start with 10-14 wings and give both sides a light coating of oil. Because of the low but efficient temp the fats come out of the wings and mixes with the olive oil causing them to get darker and crispier. I have a special procedure in that I mix 1 bowl with just salt and pepper, use a strainer and a bowl filled with cold water that the strainer fits in and I dip the wings in this cold water submerging them until the flour is wet. Then slowly lift them out and put them in the other bowl with the seasoning ingredients of, Corn starch, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion power, brown sugar, either Italian salat spices or just rosemary. Coat the pieces spray a little olive oil and set the temp at 165C/329F for 15 minutes. Shake the basket and if flour is still visible spray a little oil. I seldom turn them over. After another 15mins or sooner I check to see that they’re golden brown. The key is the right temp. Everyone seems to think that cooking faster is better so they buy one, but I bought mine because it’s faster than the oven, less to clean up, and I can make a portion big enough to feed My family in a relatively short time. Experiment a bit to find what works better for You. I have found that NOT all meats and things taste better in it too. Hamburgers, wings, ribs, and a small cake are fantastic. But fish or chops taste better from the skillet. Good luck and don’t give up.

      I was given a fryer - large one. Besides the obvious frozen foods ( French fries, fish, egg rolls ) I use mine primarily for chicken ( breast, legs, thighs - wings are ok, I'm in Buff so I'm fussy ).) and I've done whole small chickens and Cornish hens. Also Hot dogs --- we have a skin on restaurant brand here and they come out perfect. I avoid beef and pork -- do not do sausage as to having to much grease. Oh and fresh whole potatoes, jalapenos and onions come out great. Toss a whole onion in and spray lil oil, salt n pepper and cook away - the onion when done just slides out of the skin.
      Cozens - solid parchment rounds - fryer basket - perforated parchment round - stainless cooling rack the raises the item either 1/4 or 1/2 inch extra ( great for meats - fish, rolls ).
      I do cook chicken slow - 50 to 70 % heat for 30 min then I flip and repeat, if it requires a crisper finish do max heat for couple min.

    I spent a couple months during lockdown making chicken wings every day, seeing if I could perfect them. I did, and adding a tablespoon of hot honey, give or take (depending on how much other stuff you're using) is a game changer. It causes the sauce to be stickier, so when you just toss them in the sauce pan you get the perfect amount of sauce on the wing and excess sort of piling on.
    All in all my sauce recipe has about 12 ingredients, but hot honey is one of the most important. SriRacha in the same amount also is awesome and I recommend it.
