AIR FRYER MAC & CHEESE COOK'S ESSENTIAL AIRFRYER

What's up youtube ?

This is cooking with Doug and today I'm with my cook essentials , air fryer .

And I'm gonna make me some air fryer mac and cheese .

OK ?

Guys , I already boiled my macaroni and now I'm just gonna pour it in my calendar real quick .

All right , since some of y'all claim I don't have a stove , I'm gonna use my stove top today real quick .

About to pour in some half and half .

Not too much .

I'm gonna put some butter in there .

It's about that much .

Not too much .

Put some Parmesan cheese in there , some salt .

Not too much pepper .

I use a little bit of black cheese .

You can use velvet Velveeta .

This is not Velveeta .

I think this is a Walmart cheese .

This was in my refrigerator .

I had some Velveeta in my freezer .

I forgot to take it out .

So this is just gonna have to do .

I'm not gonna , I'm not gonna use too much of it .

This is all I'm using and just drop it in there .

Boom .

Mix it around till it all melt .

I'm gonna go ahead and dump the macaroni in then put my shirt , cheddar cheese .

In there .

Also gonna add some five cheese to it as well .

Yeah .

Make sure it's salty enough to your liking .

Cheesy enough to your liking .

This is just an experiment guys .

I don't know if this is gonna work , but I bought this pan right here .

Um from the dollar tree .

These are the , the dimensions of it .

It's only a dollar .

So my goal is I want to make macaroni and cheese , but I wanna make less amounts .

Cheese is not bad for you guys , but eating a lot of it is bad .

So if I could eat like two spoonfuls of it because I usually , I only make like a pan of mac and cheese like a big pan , a regular size pan .

So this is obviously way smaller , which is good .

Almost forgot to spray the pan so it doesn't stick .

All right , let's try .

Let's get it in there .

I don't know if all of it is gonna fit .

Let's see .

Should right .

Ok .

That works out .

Ok .

All right .

I got my air fryer right here and what I'm gonna do is just plop this container right on it black so fits perfectly .

Ok .

The handles .

I'm gonna do 3 60 .

I'm gonna do 3 60 for , I don't know , 10 minutes and see what happens .

I don't know what's gonna happen , but let's see what happens .

All right guys , I hear it bubbling and I smell it so I'm gonna take it off .

At six minutes .

Let's see what we're working with .

I let it shut off by itself .

All right .

Just open it up and see what we got .

Oh , man , that looks good .

It actually looks better than what you're seeing in real life .

So , what we know so far four minutes did the trick .

We didn't have to do it .

10 minutes at 3 60 .

4 minutes at 3 60 is plenty .

All right .

Let me get my spoon out and let's try some .

Now this is an amount for two or three days , which is a healthy portion .

Um for me , put some in a bowl right here .

Get some right there .

I'm gonna taste it for you guys .

All right .

And that's kind of the sample of macaroni and cheese that I would want to eat with my dinner .

That portion .

That's a healthy portion for me .

And that's what's gonna have to work for me these days .

So let me zoom in a little so you can see it .

Check that out guys .

Come on now .

Come on now .

Now you guys can jazzy it up any way you want .

Yeah , absolutely .

Yummy , yummy , yummy , yummy .

This is , this is great .

Look at that .

Not overboard .

Cheesy .

It is cheesy , but you know , you don't see cheese strings all over the place .

Well , try this out guys and of course , put your own twist on it and post it or post what you did in the comments .

So other people can see including me because I just tried , I just started this , this morning .

I work from home and I said before I went to work , I went to the dollar tree , bought the pan and I said for lunch , I'm gonna try and make some mac and cheese in a smaller portion .

And look , I did it and just for some of you guys that wanna actually try it just the way I did it .

I put my half and half to about this mark right here , right .

I put my um no , I'm sorry , not the half and half .

I put the macaroni the dry .

Um I put the dry macaroni elbows to about here .

I put my half and half to about , it's right there and I did the um salt and pepper to my liking .

Um You saw me add the cheese .

Um I would recommend you do Velveeta cheese because it sticks , helps the macaroni for some reason , stick better than other cheeses .

Um I added a little bit of butter but you saw all of that .

So it didn't take much to do .

Like I said , this is about , I guess a three day portion for me .

Um You know , and this it takes less to do um less cheeses to make less milk to make .

So this is something that you know , that you can make all the time if you needed to .

But anyway , like if you like it um Remember to subscribe if anything .
