Frequently Asked Questions

Why cook frozen spring rolls at 190°C instead of 200°C?

An air fryer blows hot air hard around a small basket, so the surface browns much faster than in an oven. Cooking frozen spring rolls about 10°C lower keeps the outside from burning before the centre is done — and it is still ready in 10–12 minutes instead of 18.

How do you prepare frozen spring rolls for the air fryer?

Cook from frozen in a single layer with space between the rolls, spray lightly, and turn them halfway.

Do you need oil when air frying frozen spring rolls?

Yes, a light brush or spray — the thin wrapper needs a little fat to blister and crisp.

How can you tell when frozen spring rolls are done?

Wrapper blistered and golden-brown all over, filling steaming hot.

What internal temperature makes frozen spring rolls safe to eat?

Reheat until it is steaming hot all the way through: 74°C (165°F) in the centre, the USDA guideline for leftovers and pre-cooked food.

What is the most common mistake with frozen spring rolls in an air fryer?

Skipping the oil on unfried (raw pastry) spring rolls. The wrappers turn dry and papery instead of crisp.
