"I just got a Philips AirFryer XL, (WS and BBB have them on a good sale right now), so am I hopefully reviving this topic.  It came late (around 5pm) so couldn't use it for dinner, but I had to test it!  So I made some french fries  \n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\tI used one potato (a medium sized russet), skin on and cut into 1/4\" fries.  There are a lot of methods out there, even Philips has several versions.  I decided on one that closely mimics \"twice fried\" fries.  All of them have you soak the fries in cold water for 30 minutes, pat them dry and apply a small amount of oil.  I used 1 tsp but that was too much.  I think 1/2 tsp would have worked.  I cooked them for 5 minutes at 360F then another 10 at 390F, shaking between the two steps.  They were a little over-cooked, but otherwise excellent.  I would not have been able to tell they weren't deep fried.  Next time I think another 7 minutes would be the right length of time.\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\tTomorrow I am going to go for broke and try fired chicken.\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\tSo what are your experiences and things that turned out great (and not so great).\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t \n \n"
