Get inspired by dishes from Hollywood movies and try new flavors
Next Sunday (12), the 95th Academy Awards 2023 ceremony will take place, which will be presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and will honor the best actors, technicians and films of 2022. The event will take place in Los Angeles and will be at the helm of comedian, writer and actor Jimmy Kimmel.
The most anticipated cinema event has 10 films nominated in the “Best Film” category; among the favorites are: Everything in every place at the same time; Top Gun; and Avatar. Even though it is not a prominent part of the category, gastronomy is always present in audiovisual works, and the public loves to reproduce dishes from the small screens within the comfort of home, especially if it is easy and practical, using air fryers.
For this reason, Gaabor, a brand of household utensils that recently arrived in Brazil, highlights some dishes that are part of the films nominated for the statuette for you to be inspired and make in the air fryer. Look!
1. Elvis – Lanche Fool’s Gold(2022)
The production that revolves around the life of the Rock kingstarring Austin Butler, shows the prejudice that the star suffered, the persecution of the powerful US government who tried to censor him and how he became a legend within the world of music.
The film shows that the King of Rock’s favorite snack was a different calorie bomb. With two buns, a portion of bacon replacing the meat, peanut butter and roasted banana. To reproduce it, you can put the bacon and banana to prepare in the air fryer and, when ready, add the rest of the sandwich.

His chaotic and stressful routine becomes even worse when he is accountable to public servant Deirdre (Jamie Lee Curtis) and his cold temper pushes his partner further and further away.
The frustrated life of the Chinese woman takes a new direction when her husband from a parallel universe comes looking for help to defeat a villain that puts humanity at risk. The film portrays a lot of Chinese cuisine and ends up bringing to the small screen some of the country’s dishes. Some dishes from China that are possible to make in the air fryer are: spring rolls, gyoza and ramen.

After more than 30 years of service as one of the Navy’s top aviators, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is back, pushing the boundaries as a fearless test pilot. At the contemporary world technology wars, Maverick takes on drones and proves that the human factor is still essential.
Bar portions appear in the feature several times, as pilots frequent the place because it is close to the flight instruction school. Among these foods, you can make them in the air fryer: french fries, chicken thighs, cheese cubes, hamburgers and others that need to be “fried”.
4. Triangle of Sorrows – Seafood and Scallop (2022)
The comedy-drama was nominated for Oscars in three categories: Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay. The plot accompanies the model couple Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean) on a trip on a luxury cruise for millionaires. What at first seems worthy of being posted on social media, ends catastrophically when a brutal storm hits the boat, leaving the survivors stranded on a deserted island and struggling to survive.
In the film, there is no lack of fancy food, and the dinner scene ends up becoming one of the strongest in the film. production. Even in the midst of a storm and feeling sick, the guests don’t stop eating. If you want to venture into this universe, it is possible to make some of the dishes in the air fryer, such as: scallop and seafood.
