AIR FRYER SPAM® FRIES WITH SPICY DIPPING SAUCE
SPAM® is not something I eat often but when I do, I like it extra crispy. I found a can in the pantry and decided to give it a go in the air fryer. The outside was far crispier than you get in a skillet on the stovetop and the inside stayed nice and tender.
