Heads up: Skipping air fryer preheat made my dinner late

I was rushing to cook fries and didn't let the air fryer preheat. They took forever to get crispy, and I ended up waiting way longer than I planned. My whole evening was thrown off because of that one step. Now I always give it time to heat up properly. Don't make the same mistake if you're on a deadline.

Seriously, heating it up first for five minutes makes everything cook faster.

Tried that once with some battered fish fillets, same story. They came out kind of sad and soggy. I found that with frozen stuff especially, those few minutes of preheating actually save time in the long run. The machine just seems to work better when it starts hot. Now I just set a timer and go unload the dishwasher while it warms up.
