Frequently asked
How does this tool work?
Pick the ingredients you already have from the category lists (or type your own). The tool compares your list against every ingredient in our 346 tested air fryer recipes and ranks them by match percentage. The more ingredients you check, the better the recommendations get.
What if I only have a few ingredients?
Start with your main protein or vegetable plus one or two staples (like olive oil, garlic, and salt). The tool shows recipes with at least two matched ingredients by default. You can loosen the filter to 50%+ to see recipes that need just a bit more shopping.
Are these real, tested recipes?
Yes. Every recipe in the results comes from our core library of 346 air fryer recipes, each tested with exact temperatures, times, and pro tips. Click any result to see the full step-by-step instructions, nutrition facts, and reader rating.
How do I pick an ingredient that isn't on the list?
Use the 'Add a custom ingredient' box below the categories. Type a simple name like 'miso' or 'tahini' and press Enter. The tool matches substrings, so 'chicken' will catch 'chicken breast', 'chicken thighs', and 'ground chicken' across all recipes.
Does it account for substitutions?
Not yet in the matching itself — the tool only looks at exact ingredient names. If a recipe is 80% matched and you're missing one thing, try our free Ingredient Substitutions tool to find a swap you already have (for example, Greek yogurt for sour cream or panko for regular breadcrumbs).
Can I save my pantry list?
Your selections stay active while you're on the page. A saved-pantry feature is coming soon — for now, bookmark the page and re-check your staples each visit. It takes about 30 seconds once you know the categories.
Why does a recipe show less than 100% match even when I have everything it needs?
The percentage is based on how many ingredient rows in the recipe contain one of your selected keywords. Garnishes, optional ingredients, and seasonings like 'salt to taste' count as separate rows. A 70-80% match usually means you have the core ingredients and just need a pinch of this or that.
