Tips for Perfect Air Fried Spring Rolls

To get extra crispy spring rolls, here are some cooking tips:

  • Don’t overcrowd the basket: Make sure there’s space between each spring roll. This allows hot air to circulate and cook them evenly.
  • Use a light spray of oil: A quick spray of oil can enhance the crispiness of the spring rolls.
  • Adjust cooking time: Air fryer models can vary, so keep an eye on the cooking process. You may need to adjust cooking time slightly to get the perfect crispiness.
  • Flip halfway through: This ensures both sides of the spring rolls are evenly cooked and crispy.

Common mistakes to avoid:

  • Skipping the preheat: Always preheat the air fryer for even cooking.
  • Overcrowding: Crowding the basket can lead to uneven cooking and soggy spring rolls.
  • Not checking frequently: Each air fryer is different, so check the spring rolls a minute or two before the suggested time.
