- Read Thoroughly: Before beginning any recipe, read it completely to understand all steps, ingredients, and required equipment.
- Preheat Your Air Fryer: Many recipes benefit from a preheated air fryer. Follow the specific instructions in your air fryer's manual and the cookbook's recipes.
- Ingredient Preparation: Ensure all ingredients are prepped as specified (e.g., chopped, marinated) before you start cooking. Refer to Chapter 2 for measurement conversions if needed.
- Do Not Overcrowd: For optimal air circulation and even cooking, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.

5. Recipe Troubleshooting
Encountering issues while cooking is normal. Here are some common troubleshooting tips related to air frying and recipe execution:
- Food Not Crispy: Ensure the air fryer basket is not overcrowded. Cook in smaller batches if necessary. Also, check if the food was properly patted dry before cooking.
- Uneven Cooking: Shake the basket or flip food more frequently. Ensure there is adequate space around food items for air circulation.
- Food Too Dry: Reduce cooking time or temperature slightly. Some foods benefit from a light spray of oil before or during cooking.
- Smoking Air Fryer: This can happen with high-fat foods. Place a small amount of water in the bottom drawer beneath the basket, or clean the air fryer thoroughly between uses.
- Recipe Doesn't Taste Right: Double-check ingredient measurements and ensure all steps were followed correctly. Adjust seasonings to your personal preference.
