Ingredients

  • 6 chicken eggs
  • Cold water and ice cubes, enough for an ice bath

Special Equipment

  • Air Fryer

How to Make It

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 135°C (275°F).
  2. Arrange the eggs directly in the basket in a single layer, leaving space between them.
  3. Air fry for 10 minutes. Cooking time varies with egg size, starting temperature, and air fryer model; allow extra time as needed until both the whites and yolks are firm.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare a bowl of cold water and ice cubes.
  5. Carefully transfer the cooked eggs to the ice bath using tongs or a slotted spoon. Leave for about 5 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
  6. Gently tap and roll each egg to crack the shell, then peel and serve.
Kubo Tips
  • This recipe uses 135°C for 10 minutes. Larger eggs or eggs straight from the refrigerator may need longer.
  • For your first batch, check one egg before serving and adjust the cooking time for your air fryer.
  • Keep the eggs in a single layer so hot air can circulate around them.
  • Cool the eggs promptly in an ice bath to stop further cooking and make them easier to handle.
