QUICK BITE:We bought an air fryer

We have made the next step!!   We now own an air fryer!! 

This is the Ninja Max XL.   Cost about $100 from Amazon. We considered a higher end model but this felt like the right amount to spend. 


We already tried fresh chicken and frozen chicken cutlets which came out okay.  Today and this weekend we are trying some other fried favorites.  First up is fried pickles.


I used an egg wash and potato starch which makes them gluten free.  They have a good crisp. You have to let the pickles sit at least 15 minutes after coating so they have a chance to absorb as much coating as possible.  


And this is certainly easier to clean up compared to the deep fat fryer we have.  Also trying onion rings and buffalo cauliflower.  And tonight will use it to make sweet potatoes.  If anyone has recipes to share, please comment.
