Warning: I keep seeing people spray oil directly into their air fryer basket and it's a huge mess.

My sister ruined a basket in her Cosori last month by doing this, but my friend in Chicago swears it's the only way to get things crispy, so what's the real deal on pre-spraying versus tossing food in oil first?

Tossing food in a little oil first works way better and doesn't ruin the basket.

Honestly, Diana's got it right. Tossing it first coats everything evenly so you get that crisp without the cleanup nightmare. Ngl, my friend's basket looks like a sticky science project now.

Remember my buddy who tried to skip the toss? His basket ended up with a permanent layer of burnt cheese from some nuggets, like a weird fossil. He had to scrub it with a brush for an hour and it still looks stained.
