How to cook deliciously - Air-Fryer Fish and Chips

1. Stage

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. If you're making fries for a classic fish and chips dinner, peel the potatoes, and cut them lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Then, cut the pieces into 1/2-inch-thick sticks.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, pepper and salt. Place the potatoes in a single layer in the air-fryer basket, working in batches if need be. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes, until just tender. Toss the potatoes to redistribute, and continue cooking until lightly browned and crisp, 5 to 10 minutes longer. Remove the fries from the basket. Keep warm. Editor’s Tip: There are many different styles of air fryers. Depending on the kind you have, yours might be large enough to cook the potatoes and fish at the same time. Just make sure all the pieces are in a single layer with plenty of room for the hot air to circulate around the food. Otherwise, cook in batches. You can keep the potatoes warm in a 200° oven (or, reheat them in the final step.)

3. Stage

Meanwhile, in a shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and pepper. In another shallow bowl, whisk a large egg with water. In a third bowl, toss the crushed cornflakes with Parmesan cheese and cayenne pepper. Pat the fish dry with a paper towel, and sprinkle the fillets with salt. Working with one fillet at a time, dip the fish into the flour mixture. Turn to coat on both sides, and shake off any excess flour. Then, dip the fish into the egg mixture, and turn to coat. Finish in the cornflake mixture, patting the fish gently to help the cornflakes adhere.

4. Stage

Place the fish in a single layer in the air-fryer basket. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until the fish is lightly browned and just beginning to flake easily when tested with a fork. Serve the fish with tartar sauce, if desired. Test Kitchen Tip: Fish can overcook quickly, so watch it carefully! Cook times vary dramatically among brands of air fryers. Begin checking at the first time listed and adjust as needed. To avoid overcooking the fish, you may want to use a thermometer to see if the fish has reached food-safe cooking temperatures of 145°.

5. Stage

If needed, return the fries to the basket. Reheat the fries in the air fryer until warmed through.
