Ingredients

  • bread6 slices
  • cheese1/2 cup
  • capsicum1/4 cup
  • corn1/4 cup
  • tomato sauce2 tbsp
  • salt1/4 tsp

Method

  1. Flatten the bread

    Cut the crusts off the bread slices and roll each one flat with a rolling pin. Flattening the bread helps it fold over without cracking and seals into a neat, crisp pocket.

  2. Mix the filling

    Mix the grated cheese, chopped capsicum, corn, tomato sauce and salt in a bowl. Keep the filling fairly dry, as too much sauce makes it leak and turns the bread soggy in the basket.

  3. Fill and seal

    Place a spoon of filling on one half of each slice, fold it over and press the edges firmly with a fork. A tight fork-crimped seal stops the cheese from escaping as it melts.

  4. Air fry until golden

    Set the pockets in a single layer in the basket and air fry at 180°C for 12 min, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp on the outside. Flipping browns both sides evenly.
