There is no need to thaw frozen food when frying in an air fryer. The temperature knob allows you to select the most suitable setting.
The specific principle is to use the baking device inside the machine to heat up the air quickly, creating a circulating heat flow in the confined space to cook the food quickly, while taking away the moisture from the surface of the ingredients to achieve a crispy texture.
Because of its special principle, the air fryer does not need to add too much extra fat, only need to brush a layer of oil on the surface of the ingredients; if the ingredients themselves come with enough fat, without adding cooking oil can also be.
Tip 1: To put cool oil in a cool pan, rotate the pan so that the oil spreads evenly on the bottom. Then put the dumplings into the pan and turn on the heat, so that the resulting potstickers won't be pinched. Tip 2, frying pot stickers should be mastered, the fire should not exceed the bottom of the pan, adjust the fire, the size of the fire should not change.
At the same time, we should always look at the bottom of the dumplings to see what kind of dumplings are fried, and when the bottom of the dumplings become golden brown, we can add water to the pot, but not just water but vinegar water with vinegar.
Tip 3: Putting the right amount of vinegar water in the pot will make the potstickers yellow on the outside and tender on the inside, crispy but not hard. After adding the water to cover the lid and fry for a few minutes. Hear the rustling sound in the pot, our pot stickers are almost ready.
