I have a new routine with sausage, cooking it in the air fryer rather than in a pan on the stove. The big advantage is a shortened cleanup. Instead of washing the pan, I just throw away one small piece of aluminum foil. The cooking time is also shorter. Having set the cook time for the correct number of minutes, I didn’t have to watch it; I just turned the patty over and let it cook a little more.
The second time I fixed sausage the new way, I heard something odd. There was a whirling sound. The noise stopped as soon as I pulled the basket out. I must have used a smaller piece of foil and pulled it closer to the sausage, because sausage and foil were spinning wildly!! What a surprise! I then discovered that dizzy sausage tastes just like the regular kind!

It would be hard for me to fit two sausage patties in my air fryer. I do only one.

So funny! Glad you didn’t get charged with sausage abuse. I don’t have an air fryer, but my dad used to like to cook breakfast hashbrowns in his and my sister does bacon, among other things, in hers.

I have not tried bacon in the air fryer. I currently use the microwave oven. It seems to me it would be a terrific cleaning job to do it in the air fryer.

I keep wanting to buy an air fryer. Seems like it’s easier for a lot of things especially since there are only 2 of us. Enjoy your sausage!

I bought my air fryer when there were three of us living here. I have used it most since I have lived alone.

Spun sausage could be looming on my horizon. I should have woven that into my story.

Sausage is usually made from ground pork with spices added. It can be shaped into a patty, or it could come in links with a casing to hold its shape.

What I heard was something whirling around inside that air fryer. It was an odd sound.

Ha ha – I follow a cooking blog (though I don’t cook, but I like to see what Diane has because they are mostly simple recipes). When she bought an air fryer a few years ago, she filled her blog with so many instances of using the air fryer. I’ve not used one. I was at my grocery store getting crockpot cooking bags and a woman was showing her friend the air fryer she had just bought and said “guess what, you can make toast in it!” I would have no idea you could do that.

I haven’t tried making toast in the air fryer yet. My toaster sits next to the fryer, and I don’t want the toaster to get upset.
