Equipment Needed
- Air fryer – we use a Tefal air fryer (Little update - - we've swapped to a Ninja Foodi Max Dual Zone Air Fryer - the 9.5 litre two drawer cooking space is BRILLIANT when you're cooking for a family. And it makes cooking meat, chicken or fish and potatoes at the same time super easy!)
- Tongs – for removing the nachos tray from the air fryer without burning your hands
- Tin foil trays - alternatively just use a sheet of tin foil - we buy the tin foil trays in packs of 100 from Amazon, they're super handy for air fryer cooking. Plus you can recycle them too!
- Cheese grater
- Two spoons
