A significant portion of the air fryer's popularity can be attributed to its promise of healthier cooking. Traditional frying methods often involve submerging food in oil, resulting in dishes that are higher in fat. The air fryer, on the other hand, uses a circulation method, where hot air is employed to cook the food, requiring minimal to no oil. This approach not only cuts down on calories but also reduces potential health risks associated with excessive oil consumption.
