How to make it
- Set the air fryer to 300°F (150°C). A 2–3 minute preheat is optional but helps browning.
- Cook for 5–7 minutes. Shake the basket once or twice during cooking.
- Start checking at the 5-minute mark — air fryer models vary quite a bit.
Tip: Low and fast — they go from perfect to burnt in about 60 seconds. Watch closely.
Times assume a standard 1500–1800W basket air fryer. Compact or very full baskets can need 2–3 extra minutes; large oven-style units often finish a bit sooner.
