Re: Air fryers.

we have had a cheapo one for about 3 years now, certainly pre covid, it gets used more than the oven, think we paid £40 for it from B&M , in fact if my memory is right, I got it for the wife as a christmas gift for a bit of a joke

my oldest daughter got one for her Uni house in the summer, from ASDA, cost 30 quid, she cooks loads in it

of course at the prices above, its only a single drawer type, we did discuss getting another single drawer incase we want to do 2 things

Re: Air fryers.

My missus just asked can you do a whole chicken in one? (Sorry!)

Yes you can. Cleaning it after isn't much fun as loads of fat comes out but it cooks beautifully.

Just make sure you buy one that is big enough,as most aren't.

The Ninja Foodie is fantastic.
I use the pressure cooker a ton.

Re: Air fryers.

I bought a fancy electric stove with an air fryer oven. But the tray that came with it doesn't allow enough air to get underneath. I could put the drip pan on a lower shelf but then I'd have grease all over the grilles. I need to invent something.

Ninja Foodie 9-in-1

Cooks all sorts, use it every day, in conjunction with the microwave it does most of our meals. Does McCain French Fries perfectly with no oil added. Always shake half way through, still much easier than cooking in the oven.

We've done whole chicken in it, lovely. Also bake our own ham, cook sausages, battered fish cooks well, fresh salmon, warms up pies. We've made soup and other pressure cooker and slow cooker meals.

It's one basket but there are racks that allow you to stack. Does things like onion rings from frozen, again with no oil but perfectly crispy. I've done steak in it as well. Used it to melt cheese on toast.

It bakes ready meals if you prefer them oven cooked rather than microwaved. In less time that a normal oven.

Re: Air fryers.

Why ?

We have ovens , microwaves , woks , saucepans etc

What's the advantage of these ?

If you are eating fish in batter and chips then it's not very healthy whatever way you cook it ?

Yep, think that's what we have.
The pressure cooker function is fabulous had a cuisine art one prior to that and bought an insta pot for my dad.

You can knock out soups and stews very quickly.
Also meat can be cooked so it falls apart.

I seldom use the conventional oven unless im making a roast and using the Ninja for roasties or steaming veg

An air fryer will generally use a lot less energy than an oven.
