6 Dishes Should Not Be Cooked in an oil-free fryer


 

Broccoli

An oil-free fryer can dry out food. Broccoli has no oil so it can burn completely in an oil-free fryer. If you want you to cook in an oil-free fryer, apply the seasoning powder over the broccoli to avoid burning. Then, add a teaspoon of water to the bottom of the oil-free fryer so the broccoli will soften and won't burn.

Whole chicken

If you put the whole chicken in the fryer slowly, the chicken closest to the heat source will dry out or burn. The hot air needs circulating for the oil-free fryer to work. To properly cook chicken in an oil-free fryer, you will have to cook a few pieces of chicken at a time instead of adding the whole chicken.

Cheese

Melting the cheese in an oil-free fryer isn't good at all. The melted cheese will form a large mixture.

Cereals

Grains like rice and pasta can be deliciously crunchy in an oil-free fryer, but they must be cooked on the stove first. Oil-free fryers are designed to dry cooked foods, so trying to cook something that needs to be soaked in water won't work.



Vegetables

Oil-free fryers do not have the ability to crispy raw dishes. The dish may be soggy and not delicious. Putting frozen vegetables in an oil-free fryer is better.

Olive oil

Olive oil is not recommended in an oil-free fryer as it is less smoky than other oils. Also, foods with olive oil may taste strange after it has been cooked in an oil-free fryer. Therefore, you should use vegetable oil, canola oil and peanut oil as they are all highly fuming oils.
