Common Mistakes Beginners Make When Cooking with an Air Fryer (And How to Fix Them)

Common Mistakes Beginners Make When Cooking with an Air Fryer (And How to Fix Them)

air fryer cooking mistake

Air fryers have quickly become a staple in many kitchens—and for good reason. They’re convenient, fast, and a healthier way to enjoy your favourite fried foods.

But if you’re new to the air fryer world, it’s easy to make a few beginner mistakes that can turn your crispy dreams into soggy disappointments.

Whether you’re a busy parent trying to whip up a quick dinner or a young professional looking for easy air fryer recipes, this guide will help you steer clear of common blunders—and show you how to get the most out of your meals.

1. Overcrowding the Basket

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You’re trying to save time by cooking everything at once, so you fill the basket to the brim. Unfortunately, this leads to uneven cooking and soggy food.

Cook in batches or spread your food out evenly. Leave space between items to let hot air circulate. For example, when cooking something delicious like our crispy mini cheese stick, make sure each piece has room to get golden and crunchy.

2. Skipping the Preheat

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

 You toss your food in and hit start—no preheating involved.

Just like an oven, most air fryers perform better with a few minutes of preheating. It ensures your food cooks evenly and gives you that perfect crunch. A 3–5 minute preheat is all it takes. 

This is especially important for frozen snacks from our EB Kranch series, which are best served hot and crispy—straight from the freezer without thawing.

3. Not Using a Spray of Oil

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You assume air frying means zero oil, so you skip it altogether.

While some air fryer recipes benefit from a light spray of oil, our EB Kranch is specially formulated to crisp up perfectly without needing any oil spray. Just pop in items like our crispy shrimp balls and enjoy a golden finish—no extra steps needed.

4. Using the Wrong Temperature

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You crank up the heat, thinking it’ll make things crispier faster.

High heat doesn’t always mean crispy. It can actually burn the outside before the inside is cooked. For EB products and most frozen snacks, a steady 180°C–200°C is ideal. If you’re unsure, refer to our air fryer recipes for beginners for accurate guidance.

5. Not Flipping or Shaking

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You set it and forget it—no flipping or shaking

Even though the air fryer uses circulating heat, flipping halfway through helps everything cook evenly. For bite-sized items like EB Alaska Pollock Finger, shaking the basket ensures uniform colour and texture.

6. Forgetting to Clean Regularly

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You keep reusing the air fryer without cleaning it, thinking a few crumbs won’t matter.

A dirty basket can affect the taste of your food and even cause smoking. Make it a habit to clean after every use. Use a soft sponge and warm soapy water. If you’ve cooked something cheesy or oily, like a filled dumpling or seafood, cleaning right after helps prevent lingering smells.

7. Using the Wrong Frozen Foods

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

Not all frozen foods are made for air frying—and some just turn out soggy or tasteless.

Look for an air fryer friendly frozen foods like our signature EB Kranch range. They’re specially crafted to be cooked directly from frozen, without thawing or oil spray, giving you the perfect crunch in under 15 minutes. At EB Food, we’ve gone the extra mile to ensure quality and taste in every product—our vision is to become the No. 1 air-fry frozen food brand!

8. Using the Wrong Accessories

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You use baking paper or foil that blocks airflow, or you don’t use any accessories at all.

Use air fryer-approved liners or mesh trays that allow airflow. Avoid using items that cover the basket’s vents completely. Investing in accessories like skewers or baking cups can also help with portion control and mess-free cooking—especially when preparing things like EB Shrimp Roll or battered bites.

9. Not Checking the Manual

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You jump straight into cooking without understanding your air fryer model.

Each model is slightly different. Read the manual to understand the best settings, maximum fill lines, and preheat functions. You’d be surprised how many people accidentally undercook meals just because they didn’t realise their fryer needed manual flipping or longer preheat times.

10. Not Planning Ahead

❌ The Mistake:

✅ The Fix:

You toss in random frozen items without thinking about balance, seasoning, or pairing.

Air fryers are perfect for quick meals—but planning helps! Pair your EB Kranch with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal. Or try mixing different EB Frozen Snacks and reheating them together for a quick family platter.

Bonus Tip: Keep Experimenting (The Safe Way)

Don’t be afraid to try new things in your air fryer. From reheating leftovers to baking mini muffins, the possibilities are endless. Just remember to start small, follow recipes, and don’t overcrowd.

Want to dive into more ideas? Our air fryer recipes for beginners include quick, delicious dishes using EB products—perfect for family dinners or late-night cravings.

Air Fryer vs. Oven: What’s Better for Frozen Food?

Interesting Tasty Facts

Air Fryer vs. Oven: What’s Better for Frozen Food?

air fryer vs oven

With the rise of kitchen tech, frozen food lovers today face a modern dilemma: should you use an air fryer or stick with the oven?

Whether you’re heating up EB Kranch snacks or searching for the best air fryer recipes for beginners, the choice between an air fryer and an oven can significantly impact taste, texture, and convenience. 

In this guide, we’ll break down both methods so you can decide which is better for your kitchen and your cravings.

Why Frozen Food Deserves a Comeback

Frozen food isn’t what it used to be. Thanks to brands like EB Frozen Food, today’s freezer snacks are packed with flavour, nutrition, and variety. From crispy seafood bites to cheesy snacks and soy-based options, frozen food is a lifesaver for busy families and snack lovers alike.

The real question is: how should you cook them for the best results?

Air Fryer vs. Oven: What’s the Difference?

Before we dive into frozen food performance, let’s understand the basics.

Feature

Air Fryer

Oven

Heating Method

Rapid hot air circulation

Radiant heat from coils/fans

Preheat Time

2–3 minutes

8–10 minutes

Cook Time

Faster (up to 30% quicker)

Slower, especially for small items

Texture

Crispier exterior with less oil

Less crispy unless baked longer

Size

Compact, ideal for small batches

Larger capacity for big meals

Energy Use

Lower

Higher, especially for short cooks

Cleanup

Easier (basket-based)

More involved (trays, pans, etc.)

Cooking Frozen Food: Which Appliance Wins?

Let’s put these methods to the test using common frozen favourites from EB Kranch.

🦐 1. Crispy Shrimp Balls

  • Air Fryer: 200°C for 8–10 minutes; ultra-crispy shell, juicy interior.
  • Oven: 220°C for 18–20 minutes; slightly less crispy, takes longer.

Verdict: Air fryer wins for texture and speed.

🧀 2. Mini Cheese Sticks

  • Air Fryer: 180°C for 6–8 minutes; crunchy outside, melted inside.
  • Oven: 200°C for 15–18 minutes; good results but prone to overbaking.

Verdict: Air fryer wins again—especially for beginners.

🐟 3. Fish Bean Curd

  • Air Fryer: 190°C for 10–12 minutes; crispy skin, soft and savoury core.
  • Oven: 200°C for 18–20 minutes; still tasty, but less crisp.

Verdict: Air fryer offers more bite and better speed.

What About Batch Cooking?

If you’re hosting a party or cooking for a family, the oven has an advantage in capacity. You can cook multiple trays at once, while most air fryers are better suited for small to medium servings.

Tip: If you love the crisp of an air fryer but need to cook more, try cooking in air fryer batches and keeping finished items warm in the oven at low heat (around 80°C).

Ease of Use: Beginners Love Air Fryers

For people just starting out with frozen food or cooking in general, air fryers offer a low-risk, high-reward experience. They don’t require much prep, and they’re easy to clean. Most models even come with presets for popular frozen foods.

That’s why so many people search for air fryer recipes for beginners—because they deliver results with minimal effort.

And if you’re new to EB Kranch products, the air fryer will bring out the best in items like:

Healthier Cooking with Less Oil

Another big advantage of air fryers: they use little to no oil. Most EB products are already pre-seasoned and lightly coated, so you only need a light spray—if any.

In contrast, ovens often require oil brushing or flipping for an evenly crisp result, especially on baking sheets where food might dry out unevenly.

Real-World Scenarios: Which One Should You Choose?

Situation

Best Choice

Why

Quick snack for one or two people

Air Fryer

Faster and more energy-efficient

Large family meal or party

Oven

Bigger cooking space

Want max crisp with less oil

Air Fryer

Circulates air for crunchy texture

Already using the oven for other dishes

Oven

Combine tasks to save time

You’re new to cooking and want easy results

Air Fryer

Beginner-friendly, especially for EB Kranch

Final Verdict: Is One Better Than the Other?

It depends on your needs—but for most frozen snacks, the air fryer comes out ahead.

If you:

Then the air fryer is your best bet.

However, if you’re cooking for a crowd, already baking something else, or need to prepare multiple trays at once, the oven still has its place.

Bonus Tips: How to Get the Most Out of Your Air Fryer

  1. Preheat for 3 minutes before adding frozen food.
  2. Shake or flip halfway through for even crisping.
  3. Don’t overcrowd—a single layer works best.
  4. Use parchment liners for easy cleanup (just make sure they’re air fryer safe).
  5. Check early—not all air fryers cook at the same rate.

Explore Frozen Food Made for Air Frying

Not all frozen food is created equal—but EB Frozen Food crafts its products to deliver flavour and texture, whether you’re air frying or oven-baking.

From the satisfying crunch of EB Kranch snacks to the savory bite of our seafood and soy-based products, our range is perfect for home cooks of all skill levels.

Conclusion: Choose What Works for You

FAQ About Air Fryer Recipes for Beginner

How do I use my air fryer for the first time?

When using your air fryer for the first time, plug it in and run it empty for 2–3 minutes at a moderate temperature (e.g., 160 °C) so that any manufacturing residue is burnt off and the appliance is ready. Then, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to set time and temperature for a simple food like frozen French fries or vegetables.

Yes — many newer air fryers benefit from pre-heating for a few minutes so that the basket is at the correct temperature, which helps the cooking process start immediately and gives more even results. 

If your model doesn’t have a pre-heat function, just allow it to run empty for a short time before loading food.

One of the big benefits of air frying is that you can use little to no oil compared to deep-frying. However a light spritz or brush of a high-smoke-point oil (such as canola, sunflower or light olive oil) can help promote crispiness and avoid sticking. 

Avoid using aerosol sprays with lecithin as they may damage non-stick coatings and affect performance.

Air fryers are versatile, but for beginners it’s best to start with simple, less-complex foods such as frozen snacks (fries, nuggets), roasted vegetables, or basic proteins (chicken breast or fish fillet) so you get used to the timing and temperature. 

Avoid very wet dishes (soups, stews) or very large cuts of meat until you are more familiar with your machine.

After each use, unplug the air fryer, allow it to cool, then remove the basket and tray and wash with warm soapy water (or according to manufacturer instructions). Avoid using steel wool or abrasive scrubbers on non-stick surfaces. Ensure you clean any food residues so that future cooking isn’t affected. 

Also make sure the air fryer has plenty of clearance on all sides for ventilation and is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.

The use of halal frozen food can also be seen at a greater rate where different meat items are offered to customers. Such frozen food available in the market facilitates easier cooking at any time that is convenient for you.

Frozen food overview

Frozen food is preferred by most people due to its enhanced availability and flexibility of use, providing a promising and satisfactory outcome. Moreover, it helps obtain better quality meat that can be consumed easily per your needs and requirements.

Halal frozen food has become one of the most used products as such processed items can reduce the risks concerning pathogens. The availability of multiple food types has resulted in frozen foods’ increased popularity.

Top benefits of frozen food

The increased use of frozen food in recent times has made it a part of the diet of many people. Experts have given various reasons to explain why frozen food is good for consumption. Frozen, ready-made consumption items are one of the easiest ways to prepare food and have better taste and quality.

The important benefits of frozen food are the following:

1. Flexibility

2. Enhanced quality

Frozen food quality is highly important as it is preserved through enhanced safety measures. Contrary to the popular belief that fresh food is better, frozen food is actually made with enhanced quality and nutritional value. Freezing food is considered nature’s method of preserving and storing food without it decaying.

3. Convenience

The increase in workload due to cleaning, chopping, and so on in the cooking process can be reduced through the use of frozen food. It is one of the most convenient methods incorporated for faster and more effective cooking of diverse food items. Any dish can be made as per your choice due to its enhanced convenience.

What Do Chinese Eat for Chinese New Year?

Chinese New Year meal
The annual Chinese New Year celebrations begin with a big family reunion dinner where everyone gathers to spend time together and share their wishes for joy, health, and prosperity in the coming year. It is considered the biggest celebration for the Chinese.

At the reunion table, each of the foods has a special significance. In this post, we are pleased to list the top Chinese New Year dishes eaten at the reunion dinner and why they are preferred in Chinese New Year celebrations. Read on to find out!

1. Whole Fish

whole fish
Many Chinese are familiar with the term “to have abundance every year” (年年有余). Chinese households like to offer fish as a sign of abundance during the Chinese New Year since the word “fish” in Mandarin has the same pronunciation as the word “abundance”.

Another custom is to offer a whole fish that still has its head and tail on because they symbolize the start and finish. The phrase means that one must be disciplined and complete all tasks that they begin. As long as the fish is served whole, it can be steamed or fried.

2. Spring Rolls

These handheld spring rolls, which are particularly well-liked in Eastern China for the Lunar New Year, represent wealth. Spring rolls are a Cantonese delicacy that are loaded with meat or just veggies, and wrapped in thin dough that is fried to golden brown.

The Chinese proverb “a tonne of gold” is commonly used to wish for wealth while eating spring rolls, since they resemble gold bars.

3. Tang Yuan

tang yuan
The Chinese New Year celebration officially comes to an end on the fifteenth day of the month. On this day, people hang lanterns, watch lion dances, and eat both sweet and savoury tang yuan.

This Chinese delicacy is made of balls of glutinous rice flour that are filled with black sesame, red bean, or peanut paste and then served in hot broth or syrup.

It is a good idea to try out the shrimp tang yuan this year instead of the more typical sweet tang yuan.

4. Hot Pot/Steamboat

Chinese families typically gather for a steamboat dinner on the eve of the Chinese New Year.

This is because the steamboat pot, which is often spherical in shape, symbolizes a family “reunion.” (a symbol of one). Eating steamboat is a family custom that promotes harmony and happiness.

This Chinese New Year, explore a great variety of audacious EB Food Hot Pot series, including seafood bean curd rolls, crab nuggets, Steamboat 5-in-1, and many more.

5. Longevity Noodles

longetivity noodles
Longevity noodles, sometimes referred to as “Yi Mien,” are a popular noodle dish served for special occasions like Chinese New Year and birthdays. This audacious noodle dish is for wishes of abundance and luck.

The noodles should be eaten whole, without being cut. It is believed that a person will live longer if their noodles are eaten while still intact. The practice actually originated from the Han Chinese belief that people with long faces usually live longer.

6. Dumplings

According to Chinese legends, the more dumplings you consume at Chinese New Year, the more money you will be able to earn in the upcoming year. Chinese believe that eating dumplings on the special day brings in the new and gets rid of the old.

The form of dumplings is based on the Chinese silver ingot, a type of money resembling the shape of a wonton used in imperial China. Make sure the dumplings have lots of pleats since they represent wealth.

7. Nian Gao

nian gao
Sticky rice, sugar, chestnuts, dates, and lotus leaves are used to make the traditional glutinous rice cakes called Nian Gao. “Getting higher year after year” is a saying that goes with eating Nian Gao. It means that life is getting better all around.

In the Chinese language, the word “nian gao” means “rising higher year after year,” signifying growth and auspiciousness.
