Ingredients
- 6 thin Irish sausages
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Remove the thin Irish sausages from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). This temperature ensures a crispy exterior while maintaining a juicy interior.
- Lightly brush the sausages with olive oil, which will help them achieve a golden-brown color and prevent sticking.
- Season the sausages with salt and pepper, distributing the seasoning evenly across the surface.
- Arrange the sausages in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching each other to allow proper air circulation.
- Cook the sausages for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket or turning the sausages halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Check the internal temperature of the sausages with a meat thermometer. They should reach 160°F (71°C) for safe consumption.
- Once cooked, remove the sausages from the air fryer and let them rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve hot with your favorite accompaniments such as mustard, mashed potatoes, or Irish soda bread.
