What is Kielbasa?
Polska Kielbasa is a flavorful, U shaped sausage originating in Poland and is a staple in Polish cuisine.
Kielbasa typically has a mix of meats including pork, beef, chicken, lamb or veal with each region having its own special preparation. Here in the US you can also get purely beef or turkey versions depending on your local availability.
It is commonly served with fermented cabbage or sauerkraut and potatoes, rice or egg noodles.

Recipe FAQs
While you can cook it whole I highly recommend slicing before air frying. Each piece gets nicely browned and lightly caramelized in the air fryer.
If you do want to cook it whole simply air fryer for the same amount of time, flipping half way through.
