All 68 dishes / Air fryer nuggets & goujons
Two things decide it, and none of them is on the clock. Answer them and the time below is yours.
Air fryers cook by moving hot air. Blocked air means steaming, not crisping.
Straight out — breadcrumb coatings soften fast in a warm basket.
A crowded basket steams. Shake it halfway and expect it softer than a single layer — if you want it properly crisp, cook it in two goes rather than giving it longer.
Mozzarella sticks burst if they go too long. Pull them the moment the timer ends — a minute past and the cheese is on the basket, not in the stick.

|---|---|---|
| Nuggets / popcorn chicken | Single layer, room around it | 10:00 |
