air frying recipes take a back seat
If you're looking for an air fryer cookbook because you want to use your air fryer to replace deep frying, this is not a book for you. Also, if you have the remotest idea how to cook, this is not the book for you. This is a book for someone who has no idea how to cook, buys a lot of prepackaged food, and intends to use their air fryer for everything like baking and steaming, etc, perhaps because they don't have a kitchen with basic appliances like a stove.
So if you're looking to "fry" frozen tater tots and "bake" prepackaged breads, go for it. Or just use it for a good laugh, like the paella recipe, which uses prepackaged frozen rice (is there really such a thing?), frozen artichoke hearts (huh?), and confuses paella's signature spices of saffron and paprika with turmeric. I never knew a recipe could have so much tragedy and comedy in one place.
