Overview
- Daily Record joined the Mirror and Bristol Live in publishing a step-by-step guide based on chef Victor of Craving Tasty’s advice.
- Coverage explains that air fryers can dry out lean steaks as hot air drives off moisture, while butter creates a protective layer and promotes caramelisation.
- Guidance recommends salting the meat several hours in advance and letting it sit at room temperature for 45–60 minutes before cooking.
- Cooks are advised to brush both sides with melted butter, then air-fry at about 210C for roughly 15 minutes for medium, adjusting by two minutes for preferred doneness and checking from around 12 minutes.
- After cooking, the steak should rest wrapped in foil for about 10 minutes so juices redistribute and the meat stays warm.
