I only have a single drawer one.

Viral Boursin Pasta Sauce

Straight in the "bucket" i.o.w. I remove the grid/rack, put a Boursin cheese in the centre, around it put baby plum tomatoes, red pepper flakes, garlic, red onion, olive oil, stir ingredients (but not the cheese) so that it's all coated in olive oil. Towards the end of cooking time add baby spinach leaves. Air Fry for about 15 minutes at 175° - this might vary depending on the AF. Check and once the cheese has melted and veg is soft, stir it all together to make a pasta sauce. Yummy!

If my instructions are not clear, just search the title of it online and the recipe will come up.

I bought a two drawer air-fryer just before Christmas and having hi-jacked someone else's thread I thought I'd start a new one of my own.

My air-fryer is a Tower 2 basket model 10.4 litre capacity presumably over the two drawers which are the same size approx 12 cms deep x 26 long x 17 wide.

Although I have two recipe books they are mostly snacks or involved some other form of cooking to prepare the whole dish.

What I would like to ask if for committed air-fryer grans what is your favourite air-fryer recipe?

I don't mean snacks or warm ups or chicken and chips but proper starting from scratch recipes that I can ideally cook in the air-fryer in their entirety?

Please include any extra things you use such as wrappings, bowls or dishes etc and please also tell me if you make cakes or other desserts in it?

I am convinced there must be some recipes I can use that will make me fall in love with this machine- as I haven't got there yet!
