Notes
Comment left on Samsung Food regarding other means of cooking.
If you use an air fryer, the cooking time should be around 20 minutes max at 200 celsius, adding the mozzarella at half the cooking time.
For an electric convection oven the perfect cooking time is also around 15-20 minutes, adding the mozzarella from the start.
