An air fryer would be compact, quick, efficient and probably not
overheat a kitchen as much as a range's oven on a summer day but I
manage quite well with a toaster oven for small thin items and my
stove (just conventional not convection, but it goes up to 500 F)
for large ones.

I lightly coat my oven "fried" foods with an oil spray. I don't buy
Pam but use a refillable, hand pumped, stainless steel sprayer.

  (I'd use less pasta sauce, add black or red pepper and check for
  doneness after 6 hours. -JW)
