COSORI Air Fryer 5Qt: Main Features and Benefits

COSORI L501 Review

Enjoy crispy and delicious food while reducing calories by 70% to 80%, as well as the health problems associated with frying in oil.
The COSORI L501 comes with a capacity of 5 quarts, making it easy to cook for 3 to 5 people.
Cook tasty, crispy and healthy dishes for the whole family saving time and oil thanks to the 360° hot air circulation technology that allows you to cook using up to 85% less oil without sacrificing flavor and texture.
The COSORI Air Fryer 5qt includes 7 preset cooking programs: Chicken, French fries, seafood, vegetables, bacon, frozen foods and steak. Plus, it includes super useful and essential functions in appliances of this type such as: Preheat, Keep Warm and Food Turn Reminder. Below you will find in detail what they are about, how they work, what they are for and when to use each of these functions.
The entire package of functions and commands are easily operated from the tempered glass LED touch panel located on the top face of the fryer.
Thanks to the Air Whisper technology, the COSORI L501 is a silent oil-less fryer with a noise level that never exceeds 55dB.
You can set your desired temperature and time manually between 170°–450°F and 1-60 minutes, so you will have no hassle in cooking your own recipes.
It has automatic shut-off at the end of the cooking time and every time you remove the basket in the middle of the cooking process, for example, when turning the food.
In addition to the on/off button, it has a button to “pause” and “continue” cooking.
The COSORI L501 includes a recipe booklet printed in several languages including Spanish with healthy and varied dishes. Plus, using the QR code included in the box you can download the “VeSync” app to access many more recipes. (Good to know: The COSORI L501 does not support remote control via mobile app like other models of the brand. The aforementioned app only allows access to a larger recipe book).
The basket is removable with non-stick coating and completely free of PFOA and BPA. Also, it is very easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
You don’t need to use oil for cooking! However, you can add some if you wish. Just keep in mind that it should be no more than a tablespoon and, if possible, using an oil sprayer.
The COSORI L501 looks good in any kitchen thanks to its elegant and minimalist design with matte texture in dark gray. Plus, because of its dimensions it fits perfectly in kitchens of all sizes. (Good to know: Just remember that the fryer should never be glued to the wall, as if it doesn’t breathe it can burn. Always leave about 13 cm between the wall and the appliance).
The COSORI Air Fryer 5QT offers great value for money with a package of features that will revolutionize the way you cook!

Shake
If you use the cooking programs for frozen food, shrimp, vegetables, vegetables and fries, it will be necessary halfway through cooking, to turn the food.
