Advantages of having Air Fryer at Home

Investing in an Air Fryer is one of the best decisions that we can make for our kitchen. This kitchen gadget is so handy and there are so many options available nowadays. It can be used for baking, as a substitute to frying (one of the best) and roasting the veggies, snacks.

  • Air frying cuts down the amount of oil used for deep frying snacks.
  • Deep frying certain food items may produce some cancer causing compounds. Air frying reduces the risk of formation of such compounds.
  • No standing over the cooking dish and continuous monitoring.
  • Use it to crisp the frozen food instead of deep frying which is more fuss, quick and more health friendly.

Air fryers are handy kitchen gadgets and do not occupy much counter space.

Use your Air Fryer in everyday cooking and you can even bake cakes and muffins as per the capacity of your Air Fryer.

Ingredients to make Roasted Carrots in Air Fryer

Carrots- You can use whole carrots or baby carrots. Cut the bigger carrots in smaller size. Frozen carrots sticks can also be used in the recipe but, it may take longer time to cook. Also, you can use rainbow carrot sticks for a more appetizing look.

Oil/Butter- Use olive oil or melted butter(if there are no vegan or diet restrictions). Kids love the buttery taste of roasted carrots.

Seasoning- Play around with flavours. Use any seasoning/spice like Italian, Peri Peri or do it the Indian Chaat Masala way. In the recipe I have used Mediterranean Zaatar Seasoning along with garlic powder. You can spme paprika or chilli flakes for a spicy kick.
