Convert any oven recipe to air fryer settings instantly. 12 food types with individual cooking tips.
The general rule for air fryer conversion is to reduce the temperature by 20°C (about 25°F) and reduce the cooking time by 20–25%. Air fryers use rapid hot-air circulation, cooking food faster and crisping the outside more effectively than a conventional oven.
Food safety: Always ensure meat reaches safe internal temperatures — chicken 75°C, pork 70°C, beef steaks 63°C (medium-rare) to 71°C (well-done). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
Air fryers typically use 70–80% less energy than a full-sized oven, preheat in under 3 minutes, and produce crispy results with little or no added oil — making many dishes significantly lower in fat than their deep-fried equivalents.
