3. Do this carefully with all chicken and put them on a plate
4. Brush really softly some drips of wok oil on them
5. Put the (first) batch of chicken in the air fryer, on the highest stand and turn after 5 minutes to continue 5- 8 minutes.
2. RICE
1. Wash your rice till your water isn’t milky anymore but clear
2. Put your rice in a rice cooker and add 1,5x an amount of water
