Doneness tips

How to get it right

  • Preheating is optional for this food.
  • Use a light coating of oil for browning.
  • Arrange in a single layer so hot air can circulate.
  • Start checking before the maximum time and finish in short increments.

Troubleshooting

If something goes wrong

  • Crowding the basket so hot air cannot move around the food.
  • Skipping the early check and letting small pieces overcook.
  • Using too much oil, which can make the outside heavy instead of crisp.
