It is better to prepare the recipe for homemade oil-free fryer tuna dumplings than to buy them in a supermarket.

In less than 15 minutes you can have all the food done and you only need a frying pan and an air fryer (I use the Innsky 5.5L air fryer)

The tuna dumplings contain egg, tomato, pepper and onion but You can remove or add the ingredients that you like the most.

If you want healthier dumplings you can add spinach or Swiss chard.

From time to time I like to prepare the recipe for tuna dumplings with Roquefort cheese which gives it a special touch.

I have been inspired by Karlos Arguiñano's recipe for tuna dumplings, although he cooks them in the oven.

I recommend trying other healthy air fryer recipes like Air Fryer Creole Potatoes Recipe or Air Fryer Cheese Muffins Recipe.
