These days I bought a special pan, named air-fryer. It’s very very good to use so my mother bought a lot of sweet potatoes and use the air fryer. My sister and I and my mother did this very very delicious. It can fry the sweet potatoes like you can buy in the shop. You can choose use oil not use oil. I made the chicken, the potato and the shrimp. You only need to put the food in the air-fry and wait for 20-30 minutes, like the oven.
