Ingredients:
- Sausages of your choice
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to the recommended temperature for cooking sausages. This is usually around 350-400°F (175-200°C).
- Prepare the Sausages: You can use any type of sausages you prefer, such as pork, chicken, turkey, or plant-based sausages. Make sure they are defrosted if frozen. If the sausages have casings, you can prick them in a few places with a fork to prevent them from bursting during cooking. This step is optional but can help release excess fat from the sausages.
- Arrange in the Air Fryer: Place the sausages in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper air circulation, which ensures even cooking.
- Cook the Sausages: Cook the sausages in the preheated air fryer for about 10-15 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time. The exact cooking time can vary depending on the thickness and type of sausages, so keep an eye on them.
- Check for Doneness: To ensure the sausages are fully cooked, use a meat thermometer to check their internal temperature. Pork sausages should reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C), while poultry sausages should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Serve: Once the sausages reach the desired internal temperature and have a crispy, golden-brown exterior, remove them from the air fryer. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Optional: Add Extras: If you’d like to add some extra flavor, you can season the sausages with herbs, spices, or even a bit of olive oil before cooking. You can also cook sausages with vegetables or serve them with your favorite condiments.
