You and crystal have such a great chemistry, it's really amazing. Anyway, thank you for all your videos and recipes!

You have to make chickpeas in the air fryer. AMAZING!

Simnett Nutrition One great way to use the air fryer chickpeas is to put them on top of a salad. Better than a crouton!

I put broccoli into the air fryer frozen and it’s absolutely amazing when the tops get all crispy!

[@dufferkinney]

Thanks. I was wondering about that.

[@kellyredard1688]

Try dusting your okra in cornmeal. Also dusting tofu in cornstarch before airfrying and then add to stir-fry. It will thicken your sauce. Steam your potatoes in the instant pot for 20 minutes before air frying. Lastly you can roast eggplant and peppers in it. I can't wait to try your sesame broccoli!

[@MellowsPlay]

Wedge potatoes in air fryer is 🔥🔥🔥. I usually put them in a pot and microwave them for 8-9min for 2-3 potatoes to make them soft and then into the air fryer to be crispy on the outside 🔥

You have to try sweet plantains in the air fryer. Soo good. Just needs a little salt

[@nguyenbanghia8970]

I am so pleased that I finally bought an air fryer - and especially pleased that I paid attention to the positive reviews of other users, and decided on this one kzbin.infoUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB . It is just perfect for the two of us, and takes up very little space on my small countertop. I roasted salmon filets for dinner tonight and they were the best ever - slightly crispy on the outside but moist inside. Best of all, no smelly kitchen or difficult clean-up. My only complaint would be the lack of even a few printed recipes to get started. My generation does not find it easy to access the QR code and use the smart phone app. I bought a recipe book instead, which gave me the confidence to experiment.

[@Dirgis-66]

You can really bump up your veggie consumption with this tool. I like it. You guys are so entertaining, cute and genuine together 💕

[@Corridors9]

I bought one of those air fryer trays to turn my convection oven into an air fryer and I could not be happier - one less appliance in my small kitchen and a bigger tray than most air fryers have. I place the drip tray much lower down in the oven to allow more air to circulate and I get great results.

[@taszline]

I got an airfryer this Christmas and after watching this vid i will be definitely trying the buffalo cauliflower and broccoli! Thanks for the inspo guys. Really fun to watch you two together

[@timlucking6133]

Awesome. I just received the exact same air fryer a couple of weeks ago as a gift! We are using it so much since then - so I’m very excited about some more ideas. What goes really well in there, are also burger patties (like beyond meat). Mushrooms (like you did) are also a favorite of us, as well as sweet potato chunks. Basically everything that we usually would have fried in a pan or roasted in the oven now fires in there!

[@marjiesgirl]

Crystal and Derek, that was a very good, informative video and it was great to see you having so much fun with it.

[@AC-yb9ml]

Can’t imagine being a tofu addict and married to my air fryer and yet I haven’t air fried tofu yet!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Ps. You’re both such a joy together.

[@mikeskylark1594]

100%

[@pda2836]

Great video, as usual! I didn't read a lot of comments to know if others suggested this, but I totally recommend using precooked potatoes and then air fry. Talk about a game changer!! Grab some steamed or baked potatoes out of the fridge, slice how you like them, or cut in half and scrape with fork. The seasonings will grab on to the cold, moist potato. Air fry 7 minutes, toss and cook 6 or 7 more minutes... Air fry heaven!!!

[@jnex2]

My favourite is already cooked potatoes from the fridge tossed with lime juice, nutritional yeast, garlic powder and everything bagel seasoning...yum! The lime juice helps everything stick and the fridge changes the potatoes texture. Crispy outside, soft inside.

[@kimclark399]

Ooh that's a great idea!!

We have the ActiFry style with a paddle that stirs the food. It works really well for fried rice, and stir-fries. GREAT because you don't have to shake it or stir it at all. I love to make granola in it --perfect in about 7 minutes. You can also remove the paddle if needed, for more delicate items that might get mushed.

[@BeaMuniz]

Thank you!!!!! My hubby brought home 2 packs of okra las week. (ugh!) I cooked one pack and they were ok... a tiny bit too slimy for my taste, so the second pack sat sadly in the fridge until today! Following your idea, I decided to air-fry them! They were cut in 3/4 inch rounds and seasoned with smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a spice mix rarely use. They air-fried for 20 min at 350 F. They were so nice, and crunchy, very little to no-slimyness...and yes, I ate it all! I found my favorite way to eat okra, thanks to you both! oh and get a handguard for your mandoline, please (speaking from experience here!) Blessings to you both!

[@Number8gurl1963]

Y'all had me laughing :) I'm on my 2nd AF (wore the first one out and when it died I bought a new one that same day). It's great for the cooked items in big salads or burrito bowls. Just throw in some mushrooms or sliced zucchini, AF to perfection then throw in your salad or bowl. Almost anything you bake in the oven comes out faster and better in the AF. For potatoes if you want bigger fries it works better to pre-cook the potatoes to almost done. One of my favs is taking a fully cooked potato and just kind of mash/smash it up in the air fryer, sprinkle with garlic powder and black pepper, drizzle with hot sauce and/or soy sauce and air fry for a few minutes. It come out sort of crispy in places (leave the skins on) and still soft and creamy in other places. Can't explain but it's amazing. I call it smashed potatoes. Another thing I've done with leftover oatmeal is shape it into balls AF for a few minutes. ps: I hardly ever clean my air fryer. I consider it 'seasoned' as well LOL.
