Air fryer chicken thighs

These simple air fryer chicken thighs are the best we’ve made, thanks to a little science and a light coating of flour – spiced for extra flavour. Chicken and the air fryer are best friends for a reason – the gadget is perfect for cooking the meat fast enough so it turns crisp and golden without drying out. We’ve kept it simple with paprika, garlic and pepper, but add whatever spices you fancy.

A cheese toastie is the ultimate go-to when you’re hungry but in a rush. An air fryer toastie is perfectly cooked throughout, and our tips ensure it’ll be one of the best you’ve ever had.

Air fryer baked potatoes

If you like your baked potatoes extra crisp, an air fryer is the way to go – it saves energy and money compared to a traditional oven AND cuts the jacket potato baking time in half while you’re at it. Add your favourite toppings to the potatoes once they’re cooked, or explore more options such as a Turkish beef mince jacket potato or salmon and sour cream option.

Turkey schnitzel with cranberry ketchup

Weeknight dinners can be festive too! Dish up golden turkey schnitzels with old-school Russian salad and a tangy cranberry ketchup for an easy midweek dinner with a festive spin. Turkey is an ideal meat for breadcrumbing as it’s so lean, and benefits from the steam pocket created by the breaded coating which keeps the meat appealingly moist.

Mushroom, mustard and tarragon bakes

Mushrooms and pastry are one of those culinary double acts which never let you down, especially if you use puff pastry as we’ve done here. The mushrooms are bolstered with tarragon and mustard to cut through the rich sauce, resulting in a bake that’s better than anything you can get at a certain high street bakery chain.

Air fryer sausage and pepper stew

If you’ve never made sausages in the air fryer, we implore you to try it! They become perfectly browned (like school dinner sausages) but retain moisture in the middle. This easy air fryer sausage recipe is our favourite thing to do with them. It takes flavour inspiration from Spain in the form of peppers, paprika, white wine and fennel seeds. It also saves on washing up as it’s all done in the one dish, and is near effortless to create!

Techniques

Air fryer quiche

Air fryers can be used for so much more than just chips and chicken wings – as this air-fried quiche shows. We’ve kept things simple with broccoli which becomes lovely and charred in the air fryer. Thyme and cheddar add extra flavour, but this method and base recipe can be used to make any flavour quiche you fancy.

Steak egg and sweet potato wedges with spicy bearnaise sauce

Air fryer halloumi with spiced honey glaze

A snack that’s tough to beat, this crisp, chewy air fryer halloumi is livened up with a subtly spiced honey for a sweet-meets-salty explosion of flavour. Great as part of a selection of mezze dishes or on its own with a bit of bread. Keeping the cheese in larger pieces ensures they don’t dry out and turn rubbery.
