5. Neglecting to Check Food Midway
Most air fryers don’t have transparent lids, so it’s easy to forget to monitor food. Checking halfway through cooking, shaking or flipping food, helps prevent burning and ensures even cooking.
6. Cooking Highly Acidic Foods
Avoid cooking acidic items like vinegar, lemons,or sour fruits in an air fryer lined with foil. Acid can react with aluminum, potentially contaminating your food with aluminum particles, which is unsafe.
Avoid these mistakes and maintain good cleaning habits, and you can enjoy delicious, safe meals from your air fryer every time.
