50 things you can make with an air fryer (@spendwithpennies)
Do you know the "air fryer"?
This is an oil-free frying pan in which you can cook almost anything, but the emphasis is on almost.
Food experts warn that there are five main types of food that should absolutely not be prepared in this pot.
The first is broccoli.
While some vegetables retain their moisture (such as sprouts, for example), broccoli should be kept away from this pot - this is because it produces very high heat that may dry out the broccoli completely and as a result it will come out sticky and bitter.
In addition, any food that is cooked in a sauce is recommended not to approach this pot with it, but to use another pot that uses less heat and a lower intensity of cooking.
"The boiling circulation inside the air fryer can cause the liquid food to splash out, something that can be dangerous and make a lot of mess," warned Samuel Goldschmidt of Good Food.
The same is true for baked pasta which "is not recommended to be cooked in an air fryer because it has a lot of sauce".

And don't even think about making toast with this device.
"If you put the bread in the air fryer, it will only move inside and not really cook properly," explained Helena Busiakovich, "for the best result, I always stick to the toaster."
Another very common food that should be kept away from this device is rice.
This is due to the fact that rice needs to be cooked in boiling water and it is not practical to do it in an air fryer.
But if you want to add some crispness to it then you can put it in the air fryer for a few minutes after you have cooked it well in water.
And the last thing the experts do not recommend making in this pot is popcorn.
This is due to the reason that most types of air fryer do not reach the temperature required to make the corn kernels "sprout".
So just keep using the microwave.
