Air Fryer for One: Real Suppers from a Small Basket
Real suppers from a small basket: 50 single-serving air fryer recipes — crisp chicken, a ribeye with garlic butter, Friday fish fry, potato wedges with shattering edges, and sweet endings — every one built for a small 2-to-4-quart basket and a party of one. Plus an introduction to solo air frying and a guide to shopping small. No family-size pans, no leftover sentence, no pity. From the author of Cooking for One and Smoke & Soul.
The little air fryer on your counter is the best supper machine a solo cook ever owned — and this is its book. Dr. Christopher D. Pritchard, D.D., author of Cooking for One, collects 50 real air fryer recipes scaled honestly to a single serving and built for a small 2-to-4-quart basket: crackling chicken thighs and Buffalo wings, a ribeye with garlic butter, a half rack of ribs, a Friday fish fry, potato wedges with shattering edges, and sweet endings like a single apple crisp.
No family-size pans. No eating the same leftovers four nights running. No pity. An opening chapter makes the case for the small basket — fast heat, built-in portion control, almost no wash-up — and a shopping chapter keeps the grocery bill honest: butcher-counter singles, loose produce, and a freezer stocked in single portions. One layer, one serving, one very good supper.
