    An air fryer hands down is one of my favorite appliance in the last decade. It opened me to the food I had given up on, read fried foods. It is also super convenient and small. I hardly use my oven now. So let’s check out the 10 best foods to cook in air fryer.

    French Fries

    Whether is is potato fries, potato wedges or sweet potato fries, air fryer version is just so good. Barely any oil used and the results are stunningly tasty.

    This is also the most popular food every newbie air fryer user tries. So there.

    Chicken Wings

    I really avoided eating wings in the restaurant because in general, I avoid greasy deep fried food. But air fryer wings are just so good. You will love the crispiest and most delicious air fryer wings.

    Chicken Breast

    Chicken breast is quite a hit and miss on stove top as it tends to dry out so quickly. But air fryer chicken breast even without breading comes out so moist and perfectly seasoned. Just yum.

    Frozen Spring Rolls

    If you love potstickers, dumplings or any kind of spring rolls, air fryer ones are just so good. Make them from scratch or use the frozen ones, they come out so crispy and non-greasy. Amazing.

    All the frozen food goes from frozen to fantastically crispy. I love making frozen shrimp or wings without thawing. Frozen convenience food is also spectacular in air fryer.

     have to be honest here, I was never a big fan of tofu. But with air fryer, I am really enjoying the crispy tofu that I can rustle up. It is flavourful too.

    Eggs

    I just love the frittata and omelette I can rustle up for the family. The eggs stay moist and don’t brown too much (I hate excessive browning). Egg bites and soft boiled eggs are delicious too.

    Grilled Cheese

    The sandwiches turn out perfectly melty and the toast is evenly browned and toasted. Really, I just love making grilled cheese and melts of all kinds in the air fryer.

    Reheat Foods

    Whether it is leftover pizza, McDonald’s McNuggets or soggy fries, they all come to life when reheated in air fryer. Just amazing. It doesn’t have to be leftovers, even takeout food can be reheated to piping hot crispness in air fryer.
