Chips and friesFrozen oven chips, or fries, are an easy first thing to try in an air fryer. Chicken breastA plain chicken breast is one of the easiest things to get wrong, because thick and thin ones cook at very different speeds. SausagesSausages brown well in an air fryer and don't need watching in a pan. Roast potatoesRoast potatoes are where an air fryer earns its place on a Sunday, because it frees up the oven for the meat. Frozen foodMost frozen food only comes with oven instructions. Crispy chicken wingsMy way of making 500g of whole chicken wings crisp in an air fryer, with a thin coating and a dry-rub seasoning.

Most of these settings are starting points converted from typical packet instructions, and the recipes are ones I cook myself. Either way, air fryers vary, so always make sure food is cooked through and steaming hot, and follow your packet if it says something different.
