If your oven has convection then you already have an air fryer. I usually just double whatever the recommended air fryer time is and it's great.

You do want to get a grate to put the food on though; you can't just put it on a baking sheet. It took me a few times to realize my mistake there, as obvious as it seems.

    Carbon steel is basically a lighter cast iron. It'll cost more than cast iron, but it will last the same.

    Or practice how to cook with stainless steel. There is a reason it's the most commonly used pan in restaurants.

    Good luck, I've been in the same exact boat as you. I use my cast irons (had them forever, they are what I prefer) and my wife uses the carbon steel.
