Air fryer times for frozen foods
Frozen food is what air fryers are genuinely best at, because the fan drives off surface water before it has a chance to steam the coating. Nothing here needs defrosting first — going straight from freezer to basket is the point. Where the bag gives its own air fryer instructions, follow the bag: the manufacturer tested that specific coating.
