    It is a bit more complicated than that. The WAY it moves the air is different than in a convection oven, so it “fries” a bit better.

    This guy does a great breakdown of how it isn’t “just a convection oven”

      Just a heads up, the ?si=… part of the youtube url is a tracker linked to you and your youtube history. Youtube will recommend people who click your link other things you watch. The ? and everything afterward can be safely removed and the link will still work.

      Thanks for sharing this, interesting recipe too, I will try it. The cross section of the air fryer was cool.

        He literally cut one in half and showed how the air flowed and explained why it was different and more akin to deep frying. Maybe watch a video next time before critiquing it.

        Tldr, no. To everything you just said.
