Air Fryer Small Sourdough Sandwich Bread#SundayFunday

Wanted to try baking bread in a airfryer, seen so many reels, so tried it and it turned out fantastic. No need for a dutch oven now you can bake bread in a airfryer too. Such an easy way to bake bread.

Ingredients
3 Grams Salt
110 Grams Water
33 Grams Active Sourdough Starter
170 Grams Bread Flour or All Purpose Flour
Method 

Combine active starter, salt, and warm water in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the flour, then knead lightly until a shaggy dough forms.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap (or aluminum foil) and let the dough rest at room temperature for bulk fermentation, about 6-8 hours.
For the first two hours of the bulk ferment, try to do 3 – 4 rounds of stretch and folds. Start with the first one at least 30 minutes after mixing the dough.

Flatten the dough into a rectangle, and gently fold about 1/3 of the dough from one short edge over toward the center, then repeat with the opposite edge so they overlap a bit. Rotate the dough 90 degrees, then gently roll it up. Finally, shape it into loaf.
Place the dough in a proofing basket lined with a lightly floured tea towel. Cover with a plastic bag and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, preheat your air fryer @ 180°C for about 5 minutes.

Place a piece of parchment paper over the basket, and gently turn the basket upside down to release the dough onto the paper.Place the bread in a baking pan.

Score the top of the dough with a sharp knife or razor blade.
Reduce the temperature to 160°C. Place 3 -4 ice cubes. 

Place the pan in the basket. Bake it for 20 - 25 minutes. 

When baked remove the bread from the pan, 

turn it and bake for another 5 minutes @ 180°C for 2 - 3 minutes 

or until the bread starts to brown at the bottom.

Remove the bread from the oven and cool on a wire rack.

Cool & slice, see how soft and airy the bread is.

Air Fryer Whole Pomfret Fish In Cafreal Masala#Improv

I love baking/grilling the fish in the air fryer, for two reasons, one that the house does not smell of fish and the next you need not give attention to it. Place it in the air fryer basket and set the timer.. that's it. The fish got so nicely golden and was still juicy and delicious. Do try this adjust the spice level according to your taste. I love this spicy, the cafreal masala is so delicious, if you have this with steamed rice it will not be spicy, so do try this.

Ingredients
For One Medium Pomfret
4 Green Chillies
1 Bunch Coriander leaves
2" Piece Ginger
6 Cloves Garlic
½ Teaspoon Poppy Seeds
6 Whole Black Peppercorns
1 Small Piece Cinnamon
½ Teaspoon Heaped Cumin Seeds
¼ Teaspoon Turmeric powder
5 Cloves
2 Cardamons
1 Tablespoon Heaped Tamarind juice or Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
Salt to Taste

Method 

Grind all the ingredients to a fine paste. Add salt, taste for sourness add tamarind paste according and give it a pulse.  

Next, apply 2 tablespoons of the ground masala to the fish. Rub it in well. Leave to marinate 10 - 15 minutes.

Preheat the air fryer , 180°C, for 5 minutes. Brush the basket with oil and place the fish, set the timer for 5 minutes. 

Flip the fish and again set the timer for 5 minutes. It's ready!!

For the Sauce Coating

Heat oil in a frying pan add the remaining ground paste and wash the blender jar with ½ cup water, add that water too and fry till oil starts to leave the sides, add the fish gently to this masala and coat it well. 

The gravy should be nice and thick and coating the fish, but you can adjust to your preference. 

Serve it our a bed of steamed rice , cauliflower or enjoy it chapatti.
Enjoyed this with cauliflower rice, I added ¼ cup water to pan and a little of the cafreal paste saute the cauliflower rice and enjoyed with the fish. This was super delicious.

My Notes

I have not calculated the carb count for this. If you are very particular then check the carb count and accordingly enjoy this recipe. The carb count is only on the spices.

Air Fryer Pasta Chips#MultiCookerMonday

This is another TikTok sensation made with cooked pasta that’s tossed with olive oil, parmesan cheese, spices, that are then air fried until crispy! They come out so crunchy, perfect for dipping with your favorite sauce for a fun appetizer!

These air fryer pasta chips don’t need a lot of oil. A teaspoon or up to 1 tablespoon is plenty and will make them perfectly crispy! Air Fry the pasta in batches. Depending on the size of the air fryer basket, you may need to separate the pasta into batches to avoid overcrowding, which can affect the results.
Shake the air fryer basket a few times. While cooking the pasta chips, make sure to shake the basket to allow all the surface areas to get crispy. Made this for my hubby's birthday to serve as a starter.

Ingredients
200 Grams Penne Pasta
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
½ Teaspoon All Purpose Seasoning
Sea Salt
Hot Sauce as required
