The fryer functions by swiftly cooking food in hot oil. The food is then placed in a basket before being dropped into the hot oil bath.
Because hot oil is a fantastic conductor of heat, food is cooked in all directions at the same time. This can reduce cooking time.
Fried food is able to decompose the surface sugar and protein of the food, resulting in golden yellow.
Frying may also take away any moisture that is left in the outer layer of the food, make it crispy and retain the moisture inside
Air fryers function by heating super-heated, heated air to cook food. The heating element heats up the air by blowing it through the fan on top. The air is blown through the food before it is surrounded by the food. This operation is like the basket in deep fryers.
Air bounces off of the inside of the air fryer’s bottom, and then returns to the food. The hot air grills food in all directions, and creates a Maillard effect, which produces crisp crust.
