Air fryer hash browns are a delightful and healthier twist on the beloved breakfast classic. Made from finely grated potatoes, these golden bites achieve that perfect crispiness without the need for excessive oil. Simply season the grated spuds with salt and pepper, shape them into patties, and place them in the air fryer. Within minutes, you'll be greeted with a beautifully crunchy exterior that gives way to a fluffy interior. Serve them alongside a poached egg or as part of a full English breakfast for a scrumptious meal that promises to satisfy. The convenience of the air fryer not only saves time but allows you to indulge in this guilty pleasure with far less guilt.

Perfect Air Fryer Bacon

If you've ever craved the perfect crispy bacon without the fuss of frying, the air fryer is about to become your best friend. Preheat your air fryer to around 200 degrees Celsius, and while it's warming up, lay your strips of bacon in a single layer in the basket. The magic of the air fryer is that it circulates hot air, ensuring every slice gets that delightful crunch while remaining succulent.

Cook for approximately 8 to 10 minutes, keeping an eye on the bacon to achieve your desired level of crispiness. Once done, carefully remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with kitchen towel to absorb any excess fat. The result? Irresistibly golden brown bacon that's perfect for breakfast or as a topping for a BLT. With no splattering grease and minimal clean-up, your mornings just got a whole lot easier!

Crispy pork belly cooked in an air fryer is a delightful culinary treat that elegantly balances tenderness and crunch. To begin, one must select a good quality piece of pork belly with a generous layer of fat, as this will contribute to the crispiness we desire.

Preparation is key: score the skin in a crisscross pattern, ensuring not to go too deep, and generously season it with salt and your choice of spices, perhaps a sprinkle of smoked paprika or a hint of five-spice powder for an added depth of flavour.

Once seasoned, place the pork belly in the air fryer, skin-side up, and set it to a high temperature. The hot air circulated within the fryer works wonders, rendering the fat and creating an irresistibly crunchy crackling. After about 30 minutes, it’s a tantalising sight—golden brown and perfectly crisp.

Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad to balance the richness, and watch as your guests delight in every enticing bite of this modern twist on a classic dish.
