Temperature Guide
Most air fryer cooking happens between 160°C and 220°C. Delicate foods like fish need lower heat (160–175°C) while frozen foods and pastries do best at 190–200°C.
Cooking Time Charts
Use our time charts as a starting point and adjust based on your specific model. Air fryers vary — always check internal temperature for meat.
When to Use Oil
A light spray or brush of oil gives the best results. Use 1–2 tsp for most foods. Avoid aerosol sprays that can damage the non-stick coating.
Flipping & Shaking
Shake the basket or flip food halfway through cooking for even browning. This is especially important for fries, nuggets and small pieces.
Preheating
Preheat your air fryer for 3–5 minutes before cooking. This ensures even, consistent results — especially important for baked goods.
Batch Cooking
Avoid overcrowding the basket. A single layer gives the best crispiness. Cook in batches for large quantities and keep warm at 120°C.
