According to @tanyahomeinspo, this hack will clean your air fryer in JUST three minutes – with no scrubbing required – and, yep, we’re convinced.
Don’t believe us? Take a look below.
First up, Tanya takes her greasy-looking air fryer and adds a bit of dishwashing liquid to the bowl.
Next, she fills the bowl with water and turns her fryer on for three minutes to let it clean itself. Super easy!
After the fryer has worked its magic, Tanya rinses the residue out. We’re left in awe at just how clean her fryer is.
In the caption, she wrote: ‘This hack has been going around and I just had to give it a try. I'm all about adopting things into my routine that will make my life easier.
‘This method of cleaning an air fryer is easy. All you need is to fill it up with water, dish soap and let the fryer work it magic.
‘You only need to use it for 3 minutes or so and it will loosen up all the grease. Lastly give it a good rinse and voila it's like new.’
Amazing, right?
Should I buy an air fryer?
Don't already own an airfryer? It's a must-buy for busy households as you can quickly schedule the cooking cycle, so your food can be ready for your family in no time after a long day. Plus, it uses a significantly less oil, making fried food healthier than ever. We really like this one from Tower and you can now get it for a fraction of its original price. See more details at Amazon.
