I dedicate this book to my dear husband Doug, my beautiful nieces Maddie and Grace, and my wonderful nephew Michael.
They are a joy and a delight!

The air fryer is a dream machine. That may sound like hyperbole, but its true. Its hard to resist the taste and texture of fried foodstheres nothing like that crispy mouthfeel when you first bite into a French fry or fried chicken, only to meet the melting and tender interior.

We all know unhealthy fried foods are not meant to be a mainstay in our diet. Thats where the air fryer comes in. This appliance produces crisp, moist, and tender foods with little or no oil. With an air fryer, you can eat fried chicken, potato chips, croquettes, doughnuts, egg rolls, shrimp, and tater tots that arent laden with grease from trans fats. Air-fried foods have the traditional crunch and classic texture of perfectly fried foods, but you can enjoy them guilt-free.

But thats not all the air fryer can make. In addition to fried favorites, you can bake, grill, steam, and roast in your air fryerand in less time than it takes to cook foods using traditional methods. Its possible to serve risotto, stir-fries, pizzas, casseroles, and desserts from your air fryer in record time, with fabulous results.

When I first used my air fryer, I admit I was hesitant to venture beyond French fries. But when I tossed in some marinated chicken breasts, the result was wonderful; that is, after I learned that marinated foods should be patted dry before cooking! Fortunately, my kitchen fan quickly dispersed the white smoke, and dinner tasted delicious.

In this book, youll not only learn how to use your air fryer in new and interesting ways but also get acquainted with how the appliance works, discover how to cook prepared frozen foods, find safety tips, and figure out how to solve any problems that may arise with your new dream machine. Lets get frying!
