How to Cook Meatballs in Sauce in an Air Fryer

Cooking meatballs in an air fryer is not only a time-saver but also results in irresistibly juicy bites that are simply divine. Begin by preparing your meatball mixture—combine minced meat, breadcrumbs, herbs, and spices in a mixing bowl, then form into evenly-sized balls. The beauty of the air fryer is in its versatility: you can cook them plain first and then add the sauce, or even toss them directly in the sauce for a deeper flavour.

Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). For the best results, arrange your meatballs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they have enough space to crisp up beautifully. Depending on the size of your meatballs, air fry for approximately 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.

Once golden and cooked through, transfer the meatballs to a saucepan of marinara or your chosen sauce. Let them simmer gently for a few minutes, allowing the flavours to meld together. Serve over pasta, in a sub sandwich, or simply on their own for a quick, hearty meal.

With this method, you can enjoy the delightful textures and tastes of meatballs without the fuss of traditional frying. Happy cooking!
