Cooking with an Air Fryer

[rotuts]

Scrapple cooks up easily in there AF :

 

 

 

 

 

Ive used the parchment paper as its easier removing the scrapple this way.

 

its true the underside is not ss crisp as the top

 

but still very tasty this way , and Low Fuss.

I'd like to bake or roast a swede (what I used to call a turnip), whole, in an air fryer.  Any advice as I don't want to have a go (not used it before) and have it go wrong.

Google has some interesting ideas , for a starter :

any particular reason you want them whole ?

 

set the temp for 325 F  and you will get a more ' baked 'effect.

 

if you are looking for Turnip fryer , AKA french fries , slice them accoundingly

 

for more surface area and and crisper result.

I just want to get it over with the easiest way possible before it gets too wrinkly.

cut it into quarters.

doing the whole thing "intact" likely to result in way overcooked outer and raw inner....

[rotuts]

if you checked w Google first 

 

your turnip would be done by now .

In that case, I might try cutting in two and scooping out the cooked vegetable.

So -- Someone locally (well, a half-hour drive from me) is selling a "rarely used" Instant Vortex Plus, the one with the rotisserie. They're asking $50, so I probably could offer $40. We sort of have the counter space for it, and I hate passing up a bargain, but I'm trying to figure out whether we'd actually use it enough to justify getting it. We usually don't eat frozen convenience foods, except for Amy's pizza. We might occasionally use the rotisserie for a small chicken. We roast vegetables regularly. Our friend who has the same model said she uses hers to toast bagels. (!) Our GE gas stove has an air fryer setting, although of course it's a much bigger space. We also have a full-sized Breville toaster oven but w/o a separate air fryer setting.
