Air frying in a Philips air fryer involves placing your food into the cooking basket and starting the appliance. The process is designed to be simple and efficient, using hot air circulation to cook food quickly and create a crispy exterior similar to deep frying, but with significantly less oil.
Based on instructions from a Philips Airfryer tutorial video, a key part of the process involves preparing the unit for cooking.
Steps to Place Food in the Air Fryer
Once your Philips air fryer is ready and the basket is accessible, you need to properly add your ingredients:
- Place Ingredients: "Now place your ingredients. Into the basket." Carefully put the food you want to cook directly into the air fryer basket.
- Mind the Max Fill Line: "But make sure they don't go over the max fill. Line" It is crucial not to overload the basket. Overfilling can prevent proper air circulation, leading to uneven cooking and less crispy results. Check for a 'max fill' line or indicator inside the basket and ensure your food stays below it.
- Reinsert the Basket: "then place the basket back into the drawer." Once the food is in the basket, slide the basket back into its corresponding drawer unit.
- Slide Drawer into Air Fryer: "Now Slide the drawer back into the air fryer." Push the drawer assembly firmly back into the main body of the air fryer until it is fully closed.
After these steps, you would typically set the desired time and temperature on your specific Philips air fryer model and start the cooking process. Always refer to your appliance's manual for detailed instructions on temperature and time settings for various foods.
