Set basket 1 to 200C for 18 minutes and basket 2 to 180C for 18 minutes then activate the ‘Smart Finish’ key then touch the start key to activate the airfryer; Give the fries a shake halfway through to ensure that they are crisp and golden and turn the bratwurst. Carefully remove the fries and bratwurst from the baskets using silicone tongs.
4.   Meanwhile, to prepare the Boston beans, heat the oil in a saucepan then gently fry the onion and pepper pepper for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute. Next sprinkle over the smoked paprika and stir in the BBQ sauce, baked beans and vegetable stock. Simmer gently for 5 minutes until the beans are piping hot.
5.   To assemble, cut the hotdog rolls down the centre and fill with a bratwurst, topped with crispy onions. Serve the boston beans and fries on the side.

TIP

If you prefer the beans slightly sweeter, then leave out the BBQ sauce and add in some maple syrup.
