I bought an Instant Pot Vortex Plus XL fryer for my wife's birthday as per her request.  If anyone has any great ideas or recipes, I am all ears.  I did a Smithfield marinated pork loin tonight for 22 minutes at 400 degrees on the airfryer setting, and this will be my favorite way to do a tenderloin from this point on: crispy on the outside, moist on the inside.

My biggest success story with my airfryer toaster oven has been baked potatoes.

Doing them in the air fryer is an absolute game changer in terms of texture.

Wash and dry your potatoes.

Pierce them liberally (I slash with a knife).

Coat them with oil (I'll use either canola oil or olive oil, either one works nicely), then roll in coarse salt and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, or whatever you want.

Air fry at 400 for 30 minutes.

Turn them over and air fry for another 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pierce test indicates they're done.

The skin is incredibly crispy and the potato flesh is light and fluffy.

Fish, chicken thighs, and link sausage (brats, polish, whatever).

SWMBO makes all manner of chicken thighs. A dab of oil, that day's choice of seasoning, and 370 for around fifteen minutes, then turn and continue cooking in two minute intervals until internal temp reaches 165.

Fish, essentially the same. A bit of oil, choice of seasoning, 400 deg, cook. Times vary wildly depending on fillet thickness. Figure five minutes or thereabouts for very thin, 10-12 minutes or more for thick chunks. Have to play it by ear and it's easy to overcook if not carefully monitored.

Brats, Polish sausage, jalapeno cheddar sausages, etc... 380 for eight minutes, flip, then another five or so until internal temp reads at least 160 and casing begins to brown.

Boiled eggs. 250 for ten minutes, maybe a minute or so more for larger eggs. Cool and peel.

Along with all the aforementioned recipes, if you like chicken wings, they're very easy to make in an air fryer.  Dry seasoning of your choice, cook according to the recommendations in the cookbook that came with your air fryer.  If you are using a wet sauce or seasoning, apply that after the wings are cooked.  You can reheat your leftover cooked wings in an air fryer, too.  They are much better that way than nuking them in a microwave.

Oh, one thing thing I forgot...

Air frying to reheat pizza works really well, too. If you do it between 350 and 375 degrees, and let the oven heat up for a few minutes before you put the pizza in, it comes out with the crust nicely heated and the cheese and toppings are melty and warm.

Thinner crust pizzas are 3 to 4 minutes, thicker crust 5, and deep dish should be thrown in the trash.
