Common Mistakes

Using Too Much Oil

A light spray is all you need. Too much oil makes food soggy.

Not Preheating

Cold start = longer cooking and less crispy results.

Overcrowding

Air can't circulate. Food steams instead of crisps.

Opening Too Often

Temperature drops. Let it cook without checking.
