    I learned how to use my air fryer from your videos when I first got one. Thank you! I noticed on this one that you did not spray oil on fries and vegetables like you showed in your other videos. Do they cook better without oil spray?

    Have you done crunchy chicken tenders in the Air Fryer? cut chicken tenders in half, throw in a bak with buttermilk, smoked paprika, onion and garlic salt for 'a while' (15-30 minutes, or 4 hours if you got it) then the breading??? crushed cornflakes… cook at whatever you cook chicken at. Boom.Crunchy tender tenders. Familly favourite here.

    Those fries look awesome! Ditto for the salmon. I will definitely make these.
    I can bake a potato in the microwave in only 4 minutes. Not using the AF for that! I agree with you on the cake. Just use an oven!

    Okay, the holiday season is over, but one of the things that I love about it that I don't eat very often is roasted potatoes because it takes a long time. However, I was shopping in ALDI the other week and a bag of Small Dutch Yellow Potatoes caught my eye and my brain made a connection I wasn't even thinking about. The little potatoes would roast up rather quickly, especially in the air fryer. Yes, they're a little expensive, but worth it!

    So, I take a bunch of them and cut them in half. Put them in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Stir them up with a fork. Then I sprinkle on some Garlic powder. Stir. Sprinkle on some Onion Powder. Stir. Sprinkle on some Rosemary. And Stir. Then I pour these into half of my air fryer and spread them around. On the other half I put a couple of chicken breasts (Red Bag Chicken). Cook the whole mess at 330F for about 25 minutes and then up the temperature to 400F for the last 5 minutes.

    With a nice brioche bun and a slice of pickle you end up with a very nice Chick sandwich and some tater roasties!

    I love my Cosori Air Fryer!

    I also stumbled across a YouTuber from the UK (my home before moving to the US 50 years ago) who cooks traditional UK food in the Air Fryer. I have cooked his recipe for "Toad in the Hole" and even though it uses a batter it turned out great! It's basically air fried sausages that are then placed in a hot pan and covered with Yorkshire Pudding batter and cooked until the batter is finished. It turned out great!

    Love your channel and get lots of ideas about things to cook watching you and the kids in the kitchen.

    OMG! I just realized this is the first video to get put on my update page! Why haven't I noticed I wasn't getting your videos sent to me before???? Geez.

    I see you have a budding jr. chef to help you out now!!! Sweet!!!

    I do LOTS of fries with toppings in my AF, but I never thought of taco seasoning!!! YUM!!! I usually just do cheese, onions, and chili.

    "You wanna make that a cheese burger"? LOL You had to ask that? HA HA HA

    If you want some super nice steamed rice…………..instead of water, use veggie stock, chicken stock, or beef stock.

    If you want fresh veggies, including broccoli, you need to marinate them in something first, or you need to spray them with a flavored oil or butter so they dont burn, and cook them on a lower temp for longer. More often than not, it's best to bake them in a covered baking dish…..or just wrap them up in a foil "bowl".

    You can do a wet batter in the AF, but it has to be REALLY, REEEALLLY thick…….and whatever you are baking needs to be frozen when you batter it up. This is something that people who've been cooking for years can do, not many newbies or part timers can do it, because you have to know whatever ever it is you are cooking battered, will cook fully by the time the batter is done, so it doesn't burn, and/or be raw inside.
    There's some adjusting to do, so you have to keep that in mind.

    Another option is, for liquid batters……….dip your piece in the batter, then roll it in crumbs. I find that chicken works really well (for me anyway) with this method, as I can put some italian herb croutons in my food processor and then use that as my crumb mixture. The crust on the chicken is soooooo gooood!
    Again, this is something long time cooks should be able to do, but newbies would have to practice to get it right.

    Bro! your son is wise for his age 😀 I love how engaged he is and foresee a cooking channel of his own in the future, and it would be a great one I'm sure. I miss Julien Solomita's cooking vids a lot, he has the same good energy as Julien
