Anyone get anything good for the holidays? Cooking ingredients, equipment, books, etc?

Me and my fiancee got an airfryer, I have no clue what recipes could be good in one of those but I’m eager to test it out!
Frozen french fries are fantastic! I have an airfryer with shelves instead of a basket, but I’m sure it’d be the same. I just grab store brand waffle, steak, or curly fries, drop a handful or two on a single shelf spread them out so thy’re not bunched up and hit the fries button - no additional oil necessary, and I may or may not add seasoning at the end.
The thicker fries do really well with my airfryer, and the preset, but you may need to adjust your cooking times and temp depending on your air fryer and the type of fries. I also roasted red potatoes and baby carrots for Christmas. Chicken breasts are a little trickier if they’re varying sizes and thinknesses, but checking the temp with an instant read thermometer makes it super easy, and you don’t heat up your entire kitchen when checking the temps. Same with the carrots and potatoes, I just poke them with a fork to see if they’re done
I’ve made french fries in a deep fryer and those arent comparable to oven made ones. Have to try air frying and taste the difference!
My parents got one on black friday.
Successfully made shoestring frenchfries. (and I’ve officially used it more than they have…) (thin-cut-sticks, salt, olive oil or whatever, fresh thyme. Air fry at 400 in the wire basket.)
Air fryers are amazing and incredibly versatile
