Oven-Baked Italian Tomato Noodles

This one-dish pasta bake skips the boiling pot entirely: dry noodles cook right in the tomato and marinara sauce, soaking up flavour instead of plain water as they soften. Everything goes into one baking dish: chopped onion, bell pepper, canned tomatoes, marinara, olive oil and Italian herbs, with a rinse of water from the empty cans to give the pasta the liquid it needs. Press the noodles under the sauce, cover with foil and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20 minutes, then finish uncovered with mozzarella until the top is golden and bubbling. Dinner for four with about 10 minutes of prep.

Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza

A thin-crust pizza built on two tortillas, ready from the air fryer in 8 minutes at 180°C (350°F). The trick is the layer of grated cheese sandwiched between the tortillas: as it melts, it glues them into one sturdy base that stays crisp instead of sagging under the sauce. Spread pizza sauce on top, add more cheese and pepperoni, and cook until the edges brown and the cheese bubbles. If the tortilla lifts in the fan's airflow, hold it down for the first minute with a small trivet or a skewer laid across the top. Rest it briefly on a plate before slicing so the base sets.

Crispy Cheesy Potato Roll

A sheet of thinly sliced potatoes baked over shredded mozzarella turns into a flexible, golden wrap you can fill and roll. The melted cheese glues the overlapping slices into one piece, so the sheet bends instead of breaking. Hold the peeled potatoes in ice water while you work; it stops them browning before they reach the oven. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 30 minutes, until the top is deep gold and the cheese bubbles at the edges. Roll while everything is still warm, because cooled potato stiffens and cracks. Cream cheese, smoked salmon and cucumber make a classic filling, though ham or sautéed mushrooms work just as well.

Butter Garlic Eggs

Soft scrambled eggs folded through a garlicky paprika cream sauce, this one-pan dish takes about 15 minutes and feeds two. The trick is whisking a splash of broth into the eggs; it loosens the mixture so the curds set soft instead of drying out. Cook the eggs gently and pull them out while they still look slightly wet, since they finish in the hot sauce. Keep the garlic at golden, no darker, or it turns bitter. Simmer the cream until it coats the back of a spoon, fold the eggs in, and pile everything on toast.

Air Fryer Toad in the Hole

Sausages baked into one big puffed batter, the British classic scaled for two and cooked entirely in the air fryer, whose closed basket traps the steady heat the batter needs to rise. Brown the beef sausages first at 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes so their fat is hot when the thin, pancake-style batter goes in; batter meeting hot fat is what starts the puff. Then leave the lid shut for the full 20 minutes, because escaping heat will sink it before it sets. You are looking for a deep golden top and tall, crisp edges. Finish with plenty of gravy.

Creamy Cheese & Onion Dip

A hot, spoonable dip of sweet onions folded through three melted cheeses, and the trick is how the onions are cut. Shaving them into paper-thin ribbons with a vegetable peeler means they soften and sweeten in the same 20 minutes the gouda, cheddar and maasdam need under foil in the air fryer at 200°C (400°F). A splash of milk keeps the cheese loose rather than stringy. Give everything a good stir once melted, then 10 more minutes uncovered until the top turns golden. Crisp the bacon between paper towels in the microwave and crumble it over just before serving.

Cabbage with Eggs Casserole in Air Fryer

Shredded cabbage, smoked sausage and four eggs bake into a firm low-carb casserole here, and the air fryer's two-stage method is what keeps it from going watery. A 10-minute pre-bake at 180°C (350°F) softens the seasoned cabbage and drives off its moisture before the eggs go anywhere near it. Slice the cabbage thin, a mandoline helps, and toss it with paprika, garlic powder and olive oil first. Then layer it in a foil pan with the sausage, pour over the beaten eggs, and cook 15 minutes more until the center no longer jiggles. Any small smoked sausage stands in for hunters sausage.

Heavy Breakfast Plate

Five eggs, mozzarella balls, and pieces of hunters sausage cook together in one parchment-lined air fryer basket, so breakfast for two lands on the table in about 20 minutes with almost no washing up. The parchment matters: it stops raw egg seeping through the holes in the basket and lets you lift the whole plate out in one piece. A spoonful of pesto melts over everything as it cooks at 180°C (350°F). For soft yolks, peek at 12 minutes and pull the basket as soon as the whites turn opaque; the full 15 minutes gives you firm, sliceable eggs. Crusty bread on the side finishes it off.

Air Fryer Egg & Potato Casserole

Thin ribbons of potato, bound with a beaten egg and a spoonful of flour, bake into a golden sliceable casserole in the air fryer, no oven needed. The 10-minute soak in ice water matters: it rinses off surface starch so the ribbons crisp at the edges instead of turning gluey. Season the mix with garlic powder, salt and red pepper flakes, level it in a dish, and air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 20 minutes. When the edges look golden, scatter over canned corn and grated mozzarella and give it 5 more minutes until the cheese melts. Serves 2 as a simple main or a hearty breakfast.

Rice Paper Feta Burek

This burek-style cheese spiral swaps phyllo for rice paper, which crisps in the air fryer with no butter brushing between layers. Dipping the sheets in beaten egg rather than plain water is the key move: the egg softens the paper just enough to roll and helps it blister into a crackly golden shell. Crumbled feta is bound with an egg and shredded mozzarella so the filling stays put as the spiral cooks. Overlap two or three softened sheets into one long base, roll the filling into a log, coil it, and scatter sesame seeds over the top. Fifteen minutes at 180°C (350°F) takes it to golden and crisp.

Air Fryer Scrambled Eggs and Cottage Cheese Cups

These handheld breakfast cups start with a scramble baked in the air fryer: cottage cheese and four eggs mixed with a drizzle of olive oil, cooked at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes. The curds carry moisture through the eggs, so the bake stays tender instead of drying out. While it cooks, trim each tortilla around a small bowl and glue the cut flaps into a cup shape with a flour-and-water paste; no toothpicks needed. Season the eggs, spoon them into the cups, top with grated mozzarella, and air-fry for 5 more minutes. They are ready when the tortilla edge feels crisp and the cheese has melted.

Air Fryer Tortilla Meat

Small pinwheels of ground beef rolled in a tortilla and cooked from raw in the air fryer, where circulating heat crisps the wrap while the thin layer of meat cooks through in 15 minutes at 180°C (350°F). A brush of mayonnaise and soy sauce on the tortilla does real work here, carrying salt and umami into the wrap and giving the surface enough fat to brown well. Slice the roll into 3–4 cm (1½ in) pieces so the beef cooks evenly, and check the centres show no pink before scattering over the mozzarella for a final few minutes. Leftovers reheat well in the air fryer and stay crisp.
