As a home cook that's getting into catering events, getting more serious with cooking, I really appreciate your videos. Keep it up!

Honestly if you want a pretty low fat and easy option, you can get decently close to tater wedges in my opinion by just doing the following: 1. Set your air fryer to 420°F on the air fry setting. (Temp may vary a bit between air fryers, but this is what works for my mini-oven style air fryer.) 2. Eye, wash, and dry the potatoes (don't peel!), then cut em pretty much how ever you want. I've done thin chunks, thick chunks, spirals, diced, whatever. Just be aware that the bigger the chunks the more time it'll need to cook well. For best results though, stick to the size of a standard large tater wedge or smaller. 3. (optional, but can give crispier results) Soak the potatoes in water for 10-30 mins (longer is better but don't stress if you've only got 10 mins). Then, drain em and then gently pat them dry. 4. Toss with oil (I've used canola or EEVO, but any should work). Use just enough oil to coat them. You don't really want them dripping. You just want enough that the seasoning sticks, basically. 5. Now, you add literally whatever seasonings you would like and toss them again to spread it. I like the Kingsford Louisiana Cajun spice, along with some salt and pepper. Bojangles spice would also be a good option. But really, it's up to you and your preferences! 6. Throw in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for around 10 minutes, then check them. If they're not as crisp as you want, cook for longer. If after 15 minutes they still aren't as crisp as you want, simply turn on the broiler setting on high until you reach the desired result (keep a close eye on them if broiling, cause it can burn them fast!). This all results in a delicious tater-wedge texture with a crisp and crunchy outside. And you didn't even have to bread them! I find that this gets you pretty close to a healthy tater wedge that is easy and quick!

Tried it a couple of times, I picked potatoes with a fork before tossing them in the microwave for 5min (~750/800 watts) then cut and fried them at 340fh for couple of minutes. A pretty quick and convenient way to make some

​@@krzysztofwasilewski102so, it depends on the amount of food. A bit of hot food in the fridge is fine, but in large amounts it causes the inside of the fridge to warm up, which can speed up the spoiling process of other foods. So, if you put something warm in the fridge, I wouldn't put a lot and I'd make sure any milk or quick to spoil things are moved away from the warm item.
