Not check on the food
Today, convenience reigns supreme. Making ensuring dinner tastes delicious is not the most crucial aspect of life. Unfortunately, you will need to put down your phone for a moment or turn off the television if you're one of those people who wants the greatest results from their air fryer. Each air fryer is a little bit different, so just because a recipe says to cook something for 15 minutes at 400 degrees doesn't mean you can just press the start button, go about your business, and assume your meal will be great when the bell rings.
TV chef Meredith Laurence asserts that one of the air fryer's many benefits is that you can open it to check on the food's progress and close it again if it doesn't appear to be done. Additionally, you may repeat this step as many as necessary because opening the fryer neither stops nor slows down the frying process. The visual feedback is also quite easy to interpret. It's finished if it's golden. Give it a few more minutes if it isn't. The obvious exceptions are meats like chicken. Check the meat's internal temperature before declaring it "done" at all times.
