Ingredients
Ingredients
- 6 frozen potstickers (can use more or less, as desired)
- Oil spray (for coating)
Instructions
- Arrange Dumplings: Place frozen dumplings in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overlapping for even cooking.
- Apply Oil: Spray both sides of the dumplings lightly with oil or brush them with oil to prevent sticking and help develop a crispy texture.
- Initial Cooking: Set the air fryer to 375°F and cook the dumplings for 6 minutes.
- Check Crispness: After 6 minutes, check if the dumplings have reached your desired crispness. If not, continue cooking for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
- Serve Warm: Once cooked to your liking, remove the dumplings from the air fryer and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- The number of potstickers that fit depends on your air fryer basket size; avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Coating dumplings with oil prevents sticking and moisten the exterior during air frying.
- Different brands and sizes of frozen dumplings might require slightly different cooking times; always check at 6 minutes then adjust as needed.
