But before you click add to basket, here’s what makes our collection so versatile, practical, and a perfect fit for your daily kitchen routine—especially if you’re cooking for a busy household.
Inserts For Air Fryers: What Are Silicone Inserts for Air Fryers?
Kitchen Curated’s silicone inserts for air fryers are flexible, heat-resistant trays and bowls designed to sit neatly inside your air fryer. They create a non-stick barrier between your food and the basket, making cooking—and clean-up—effortless.
Unlike disposable parchment liners, our silicone inserts are reusable, dishwasher-safe, and built for high heat performance without curling or tearing.
They’re ideal for sticky sauces, cheesy toppings, and crispy coatings—all with no mess left behind.

Choosing the Right Size and Shape
Our collection includes inserts that fit the most popular air fryer models in UK kitchens. Whether you've got a dual-drawer design or a round basket, you'll find a fit that works perfectly with your appliance-no need to shop around.
Measure and Match in Three Steps:
· Remove your basket and measure the internal width and depth
· Note the shape-round, square, or dual-zone
· Choose an insert with 1-2cm clearance to allow proper airflow
For families, our square and dual-zone options are brilliant for cooking multiple components in one go-handy for different preferences at the table.
Which Silicone Insert Shape Is Best?
We’ve designed different insert shapes to match how you like to cook:
Round inserts: Ideal for single-basket air fryers
Square inserts: Perfect for drawer-style and larger models
Bowl-style inserts: Best for saucy dishes, curries or juicy meats
Flat mats: Use for pizzas, pastries or crisping bases
Use bowl-style inserts for hearty, slow-carb stews or veggie-packed bakes. They’re ideal for meal-prepping comforting dishes the whole family will love.
All of our inserts feature raised ridges or vented bases to maximise airflow and drain excess fat—so you get that golden, crispy finish every time.
Compatibility with Air Fryer Brands
At Kitchen Curated, we’ve crafted our inserts to suit the most popular UK air fryer models—including designs compatible with Ninja, Cosori, Tower, and Salter styles. Whether your air fryer is round, square or dual-drawer, our product pages guide you to the right match—no guesswork required.
Got kids or picky eaters? Our dual-zone inserts help you cook two different meals side-by-side—no arguments, no stress.
Silicone vs Parchment or Foil
You might have used foil or parchment in the past—but silicone is a smarter, more sustainable choice:
- Reusable: Save money and reduce waste
- No burning risk: Silicone won’t ignite or tear like parchment
- Stays put: Flexible and secure—no flapping or shifting mid-cook
- High heat resistance: Safe up to 230°C / 446°F
All of our silicone inserts are made from premium, food-grade materials—BPA-free, non-toxic, and thoughtfully designed for eco-conscious modern kitchens.
