Alright, alright, let’s talk about them frozen garlic knot things, the ones you make in that there air fryer. I ain’t no fancy cook, mind you, but even I can make these, so you probably can too.
First off, you gotta get yourself some of them frozen garlic knots. Don’t matter much where you get ’em, the store, I guess. Just make sure they’re frozen, you know, hard as a rock. Don’t go tryin’ to air fry no thawed-out knots, they’ll turn into a mushy mess, I tell ya.
Now, about that air fryer. I got one of them newfangled ones, sits right on the counter. Handy little thing, I gotta say. You gotta preheat that thing, get it all hot and bothered. The instructions on the garlic knot bag, they might tell ya what temperature, but I just crank it up to somethin’ that seems right. You know, like when you’re bakin’ a pie, you want that oven good and hot.
- Get the air fryer hot, real hot.
- Don’t forget to put some oil in that basket thing.
So yeah, get that air fryer hot, say around 350 or 375 degrees, somethin’ like that. While it’s heatin’ up, I usually give that basket a little spray with some oil. Just a little, mind you, don’t want them knots swimmin’ in grease. This just keeps ’em from stickin’, you see. Nothin’ worse than tryin’ to scrape burnt knots off the bottom of that thing.
Once the air fryer is hot and the basket’s oiled up, you just dump them frozen knots right in there. Don’t overcrowd ’em, though. Give ’em some space to breathe, or they won’t cook right. If you got a whole bunch of knots, you might have to do ’em in batches. That’s fine, ain’t no rush. Just put a few in at a time, let ‘em cook, then do the rest.
Now, how long do you cook ’em? Well, that’s the tricky part, ain’t it? The bag might say somethin’, but I always just keep an eye on ’em. It usually takes about eight minutes or so, but it could be more or less depending on your air fryer and how big them knots are. The important thing is to flip ’em halfway through. Yeah, just open up that fryer and give them knots a little flip with a fork or somethin’. This way, they get all crispy and brown on both sides.
And that’s pretty much it. When they’re golden brown and all puffy, they’re done. Take ‘em out and let ‘em cool for a minute or two before you start eatin’ ‘em. They’re hot, you know? Burn your tongue right off if you’re not careful.
Now, some folks like to dip them knots in stuff. Marinara sauce, that’s the red stuff, right? Or garlic butter, if you’re feelin’ extra garlicky. Me? I just eat ‘em plain, straight out of the air fryer. They’re good that way, just garlicky and doughy and a little bit crispy. Perfect for a snack, or a side dish, or whatever you wanna call it.
So, there you have it. Frozen garlic knots in the air fryer. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy, like my grandson always says. It’s a simple recipe for frozen garlic knots. Air fry for golden goodness. Flip them halfway. Even an old woman like me can do it, so you can too. Don’t be scared of that air fryer, it’s a good little machine, I tell ya. And those frozen garlic knots? They’re mighty tasty, especially when you don’t feel like doin’ a whole lot of cookin’. Just toss ‘em in, heat ‘em up, and you got yourself a treat. Now go on and try it, you’ll see what I mean.
You can cook your frozen garlic knots perfectly in an air fryer if you follow these simple instructions. And remember, always be careful when working with hot appliances. Don’t want nobody gettin’ burnt now, do we? So go on, get yourself some frozen garlic knots and that air fryer of yours and get cookin’. You won’t regret it.
