^ Apparently the general rule for fresh food is subtract 20 deg. C from the oven temperature and reduce the oven cooking time by 20-25%.
For frozen food, keep the suggested oven temperature and reduce the oven cooking time by 50%.

I tried those suggestions with a non-frozen steak pie and it was spot-on.
The chips were frozen but I just went with the "maximum crisp" setting with the time tweaked down a little (a guesstimate) for portion size.

Being a 2-drawer oven you can synchronise the times so the cooking finishes at the same time - pie and chips both cooked and ready to go!

If you're already using a fan oven I think you might just have to reduce the times a little because air fryers are basically mini fan ovens with some extra bells & whistles.

Cooking raw chicken can be handled by getting a food thermometer probe to measure the internal temperature - I forget the required temperature but it's probably Googleable.

I'm going for the world record at this point.
So much for the 2-4.

Yep - it might get me more involved with what I eat and actually cooking stuff instead of chucking something in the microwave/conventional oven (which is now retired and makes a handy standing surface for the air fryer).
