COOKING
The Vortex Plus uses rapid air circulation to crisp or cook food, giving
your meals all the rich, crispy flavour of deep frying, with little to no oil.
What to cook in
The cooking basket with cooking tray is perforated to allow air to flow
under and around your food, and should be used for most foods, like
wings and cauliflower bites.
For the Baking programme only, you can use a metal baking dish to
hold things like batter for cakes and dough for breads. Place the baking
dish inside the cooking basket for baking.
You can place food right on the cooking tray, without using foil or other
coverings.
Prep
Cut, chop, season, marinate or batter your ingredients according to
your recipe.
Preheat
1. Insert the cooking basket into the air fryer. When the basket is
inserted securely, the front of the basket is flush with the front of
the air fryer.
HOT SURFACES
The air fryer will be hot during and after cooking. Always exer-
cise extreme caution when removing food from the hot cooking
chamber. Touching hot surfaces may result in personal injury,
and/or property damage.
MUST ALLOW AIR FLOW
To prevent personal injury, do not block air intake or air vents.
