Perforated parchment paper helps prevent sticking without blocking airflow.

Avoid non-perforated liners that could trap heat and cause uneven cooking.

7. Avoid Wet Battered Foods

Thick wet batters may drip and create a mess.

Opt for light breading or coat with oil for crispiness instead.

8. Clean the Air Fryer Regularly

Remove the basket and tray to wash after every use.

Wipe the heating element carefully to prevent grease buildup.

A clean air fryer cooks more efficiently and safely.

9. Experiment with Reheating

Air fryers are excellent for reheating pizza, fries, or fried foods.

Set at 320–350°F (160–180°C) for 3–5 minutes to regain crispiness.

10. Use Accessories for Variety

Baking pans, racks, or silicone molds expand what you can cook—think small cakes, quiches, or even roasted corn on the cob.
