Gotta be honest, I do like this budget air fryer, but I think i'll upgrade soon, any suggestions for what air fryer to get would be appreciated, cheers Ingredients are above, recipe methods are here barrylewis.net/recipe/5-foods-that-are-better-in-an-air-fryer/
I have the tower, it has 3 slide in trays like a mini oven from tesco. I use it all the time for everything. You get a chicken rotisserie attachment with it to 👍
I don't know much about the types you can get but considering what you do, I'd go for one with a lot os space/compartments. I remember you having to fry things separately, one after the other, for a single meal before.
I got an air fryer for my birthday last September and love it. I have used my oven twice in that time, as my air fryer does everything else. As a disabled person, my air fryer is so much easier and safer to use; even though my oven is one made for wheelchair users with the door opening to the side. I have a bunch of reusable silicon baskets to make clean up easier and to also make lifting the foods out easier. These are a lifesaver as I can throw them in the dishwasher and then the actual air fryer never needs cleaning. Would love to make a video with you Barry about cooking as a disabled person, tips and tricks and gadgets. I do plan on doing one on my UA-cam channel, but I believe it’s something your viewers would find interesting for those who aren’t disabled (I get asked often how I manage to cook as a wheelie living alone) and helpful for those who do have disabilities.
@@mrbarrylewis I have a Tower T17088 9L Dual Basket Vortx Air Fryer, I love the two drawers so I can cook two different dishes at the same time. Also the drawers are rectangular so easier to fit foods in I find compared to my parents who have a similar one to yours. Let me know if you ever want to do a video collab!
This is perfect. I just invested in a nicer air fryer to save energy and less heat in the house for summer. Been trying different things on different modes. Thanks!!! Love this.
@@mrbarrylewis can’t wait for that because I own an insta pot and don’t use it as much as I thought I would. I have made a few things and everything was really delicious. The video may motivate me to do more. Thanks
I have my Ninja multicooker now for 4 years and it's still being used all the time. Mostly as airfryer but also for baking, pressure cooking and steaming. They may be a bit big at first but it's also replacing a lot of individual appliances.
Not sure what’s available this season but our bargain Aldi air fryer has been an integral part of our daily lives. It looks more like a mini oven with a drop down door. It also has a rotisserie and pizza stone attachment!
Caved in to the air fryer fad a year ago and honestly, it's THE most used thing in our kitchen! We got the Ninja dual (AF400) which is amazing and does NOT require any pre-heat (None of the Ninja ones do)
We just got the Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer Dual Air Fryer. The thing I like most is that it has one drawer with a divider so you have the versatility to cook different meals for two people or say a whole chicken in one big drawer. 😊 Oh, and the silicone cooking baskets are a must! You can buy generic ones to fit that model quite easily. 😊
I have the air fryer with shelves and I find very good as you can cook couple of things at once. As I live in Malta which is very hot in the summer I always use the air fryer instead of the oven
I'd love to see you explore instant pots. with proper preparation and execution you can cook virtually anything in them in less than half the time. The hard part is learning all those techniques and finding which work best for you!
I love my Cosori air fryer . I’ve had about 6 airfares over the years and this one is 3 years old and still going strong. Has a large basket and easy to clean
It's nice to see an English Mexican Food fan, like me and my son..... we are obsessed in this house! So obsessed that i bought a mulcajete made out of volcano lava..... they make salsas taste fantastic!
Cosori Dual Blaze is a hell of an aur fryer! From what I know it's the only one that hast two burners, at the top and the bottom, so you don't have to flip the food while cooking, And it's spacious enough to cook whole chicken of an impressive size in it
We have a GoWise 7qt. It has a grill, reheat, bake, air fry, roast, and dehydrate setting. Best thing I've every purchased, ever. We use it every day. I even bake canned cinnamon rolls and biscuits in it and they are Amazing!
Ninja ones are good I have one of the multi cookers with the Air Crisp fryer I am saving up for the two drawers. I Also have a Cosori multi cooker one too.
Agreed! I had my ninja foodi imported from the US, as it wasn't available for EU when I got it🙈 but I absolutely love it. Ninja has a wide variety of options too. I got the 13 in one with the built in thermometer, SP351. My sister has the Phillips airfryer which is very popular in the Netherlands and it's a good machine, but the Ninja is way more versatile ❤
I finally broke down and got an air fryer to play with. I bought thr emeril lagasse wvery day 360. It was 149$ on amazon about a year ago. It can be an oven or air fryer. It has elements and a fan in it, and various positions for the over grate. I love it, it even has a rotisserie and spit included.
I have two air fryers and couldn’t live without them. I love the way you did all of those recipes. I never thought of the salmon one, but I will sure be trying it soon.❤
I always make up a massive batch of taco seasoning and just put it into an empty herb or spice jar so I don’t have to keep making it up (and it means I avoid buying pre-made from shop)..great upload as usual Barry👍💕
@@DragaSlovenija 2 tbsp light brown sugar 2 tbsp chilli powder 1 tbsp paprika 1 tbsp cumin 1.5 tsp salt 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp garlic powder Obviously just adjust to your taste (add more chilli powder, maybe ramp it up with some cayenne or add more salt), I have found that this is a pretty good baseline though 👍
I've been researching air fryers for a while. I'm going out to get the Ninja Foodi Max Dual AF400UK this weekend - I love the fact that it has two drawers, a time sync, so the drawer cooking times finish at the same time when cooking different things and a 9L+ capacity
Love my air fryer. I've had it about 18 months and turned on my main over precisely once since i've owned it to a cook a pizza that was too large for the fryer.
Yes, I definitely appreciate the air fryer recipes. I'm still learning the limits of mine. I bought one of the twin drawer Ninja ones as while there are 3 of us I'm the youngster at 50 so being able to do 2 things at once is better than having a larger capacity. Also the silicon liners are readily available and well worth using as you just pop them out to clean rather than needing to do the whole drawer all the time :)
I have had basket air fryers before but absolutely love my current air fryer oven which is a massive 26L lots of different settings including a rotisserie function and a dehydrator. It is a LLIVEKIT air fryer mini oven and is currently on amazon for £129.00, it makes the best Yorkshire puds
I also use my instant pot to pressure cook and then put in my air fryer. It also has a sous vide setting , which I use to make delicious steaks, so I’d love to see some recipes from you 😊
@@jaynesenior7603 The oven can do that too, it just doesn't have separate buttons for all those predefined settings. The main advantage is that it's smaller so more energy efficient and quicker.
We have an instant pot that is also an air fryer! It's called a Duo Crisp I believe, and we absolutely love it. Really enjoyed this video, feels like Barry back to his roots!
I swear by my Instant Pots and yes I said pots. I have two and use them regularly to feed my large family. I use mine for so many things Berry you should definitely do that!
I recoomend you upgrade to a Cosori. I started with a cheap one too. Less than a year the handle fell off. Cosori duel blades are amazing! No shaking. No preheating.
I took the plunge couple of months back and bought the Ninja Foodi 15 in 1 smart lid. It's changed the way i cook. It does the lot from pressure cook to air fry to steam cook. I even make my own bread in it. Plus it has a probe so any meat you cook will only cook to the temperature you tell it!
Loved the video, thank you. I have always been a Phillips air fryer fan but recently upgraded to ninja flexi drawer, love it so much. Large drawer lets me do whole roasts and accompaniment all at once and super easy to clean
Yup, we use our instant pot (pressure cooker) and Air fryer for almost every meal, being able to do a pasta sauce in the instapot, then add noodles for a few more min for the kids dinners for a few days is such a time saver.
We've got a Russel Hobbs airfryer, it's got a big one piece non-stick bowl that's diswasher safe. With heating element on the bottom adding more control, it's an oven, a frying pan and a slowcooker. Also comes with a metal griddle for grilling. I can just do a whole casserole in the bowl itself with little hassle. We've been happy with it, we needed to upgrade to a bigger one since our first one was a regular one with the pull out basket so this one has been perfect.
I LOVE my Instant Pot Pro Crisp. It replaced my Philips All-in-One and cheap-ass air fryer that I had, best purchase I ever made a couple of years ago. Use the thing all the time, cooks soups, corned silverside, etc... in a fraction of the time.
Dont know if its a brand in UK but bought a Phillips airfryer 5000 xxl and in love with that. You can even in my model use your phone as a controller if you want!
I have a prosenic that I can control from my phone. It’s the only reason I got it over other brands. It’s the best feature about it, it’s also got some recipes but don’y think I’ve followed any yet as I tend to google recipes.
I love my cosori duel blaze. You don’t have to pre heat nor flip your food as there is a top and bottom element. Ive roasted a whole chicken dinner in mine
@@mrbarrylewis it is wonderful. I bought all my children one last year. I have one daughter living in London and hers works the same as mine in the states.
I've tried several air fryers and my favourite by far are the ones that identical to a mini oven. I.e. there's 2 or 3 rows of wire racks to put food on. I use the Tower Xpress, the rotisserie function is fantastic if you can find a small enough chicken.
Love my airfryer I have had the one you have for at least 5 years love it won't use any other hope it does not break but straight to get another one :)
I have the Ninja Foodi dual baskets. I have silicone inserts bought on Amazon that fit each basket. The Ninja dual basket has several modes, Air fryer, bake, roast, dehydrate, reheat. I use it mainly on bake actually. I do make garlic bread in it, usually using Focaccia on air fry, and I cook fish in it. I use it for roast potatoes, and at the same time, also roast carrots and parsnips. Also with this model, you can put two different items in the baskets, cook at different temperatures and for different times. There's a mode which will make both baskets finish cooking at the same time, if the time in each basket is different. While a larger basket is handy for obvious reasons, having the two baskets is more versatile I think.
Thank you Barry great recipes. I’m on my second air fryer, this one is a Russel Hobbs $120 Australian dollars ,I’m really happy with this one. I’m going to try all your recipes, I really like the prawn one, I’ve never cooked fish in my air fryer. I haven’t used my oven in months 😉 I’m watching from Australia 🇦🇺🐨
I have the Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer which has a pressure cooking lid and an air fryer lid and it's brilliant,I also have another two Instant air fryers,the Instant Vortex Plus 5.7 Ltr with the clear front and the Instant Vortex Plus Versazone 8.5 Ltr which has a large drawer that you can put a separator in the middle and use it as two independent drawers with different times and temperatures,they are all amazing appliances and I wouldn't buy any other brand,my oven is now a storage unit for my air fryer accessories,a great video,thanks for the recipes
🇨🇦 I have a Cosori multi oven that I have air fried in for years, and recently broke down and bought a Ninja Foodi smart 6 in 1 - what I am trying to say is, the Cosori or Ninja brands are awesome & highly recommend if you can get them there.
Phillips xl airfryer best one I have tested had it since 2016 and still going replaced my oven and deepfryer and always better results then my fan oven
My waffle stuffer has just arrived from Amazon U.K. and I am loving it. I can see you doing all sorts in one of those. The American version has a brilliant grip handle. I got mine out with a wooden spatula and it was perfect.
I love how everything turned out it would make a nice date night meal As for a new air fryer I've owned a ninja foodie air fryer for years & it'll be better than your budget buy too
My wife and I got an unopened Instant Pot brand air fryer combo at a thrift store. It’s brilliant. It air “fries,” broils, bakes, and dehydrates, though I haven’t verified that last one. It’s shaped closer to a cube than the odd egg shape many are. I vote for a multi-function, whichever the brand.
I have a ninja foodi max. It pressure cook, steams, slow cooks on 2 setting, high or low, and it also air fries. I only use my oven if I’m doing a Sunday roast dinner now.
Garlic bread you should try this a wrap, cheese I use mozzarella garlic granules and mixed herbs then do another layer on top cook for around 9 mins on 180 wow this bread is to die for
Can't get the presto pressure canner in the UK 😢 can't import it either as it's not compatible with our 240v system either. I watch a few American homesteading channels that use it in addition to a stove top canner and they peaked my interest, was gutted after researching.
Philips Premium Airfryer XXL HD9867/90 is the one if you wish to upgrade. We are using it on a daily basis for very a long time now. It is big enough and for standard things it calculates cooking time based on food weight. On top of that it has a lot of additional accessories you could buy (grill, pizza kit, baking tray for cakes and etc.).
Me and my wife both love the air fryer, but love our instant pot more. I usually stuff 2 chuck roasts from Aldi in there with water(or cheap beer!) on the bottom, and just seasoned salt the whole thing and add yellow mustard/hot sauce. I have yet to have better pot roast, I leave it in for 1 hour 20 minutes to make sure it falls apart. 😁
I have the Ninja toaster oven/air fryer. I have a small kitchen, so I opted for the fold-up model and I love it! It even opens on the bottom for easy cleaning. They make a taller version, which fits whole chickens. I’m in the US, so I’m not sure which models you’ll have available.
Here in this area of America, we call your Enchiladas, smothered burritos. Taco Bell had the same recipe and called it The Enchirito. They bring it back every now and then. It also is basically the same recipe. Great use of your fryer! I love watching your videos! Especially when your wife is with you, her expressions and quite comments are epic to me!❤
Super great!! Thanks for these recipes ❤ I'm newer to an air fryer and still not sure how and what to cook in it 😂 Your videos help so much and bring such joy! Some of the best parts of my day ❤ Many blessings to you all ❤
I have 2..... a cheapo Tower one and a Cosori..... i use them most days (or one of them). They are brilliant..... try wrapping bacon rashers around a wooden spoon before taking them off and putting them in the fryer.... you can get a whole packet in there by doing that! Bacon tubes!
One that will give rotisserie function, hysapientia which I have is so versatile, you can do anything, also instant pot which gives you the cooking meat without losing moisture, it makes great stir fry and really good mixed rice recipes in alot of the time 3 x as fast, and less washing up bonus hope this help with your choice.🤗
i got the Ninja Foodi MAX 7-in-1 Multi-Cooker 7.5L OP450UK and only started using it fairly recently but still like it however it does have downsides its a top loader rather than tray based but its much cheaper to run than a full oven
I don't know if anyone's mentioned this already. But I seriously recommend using ramekins for various recipes. Especially for a sauce. But they're also great for making eggs in the airfryer.
We love our ninja foodi flex basket air fryer 11 qt. It has one giant basket that can be divided into two, so you can have two different programs running, or one big one like a whole roast chicken. The basket, crisping racks, and divider are all dishwasher safe. We use it all the time.
Ninja all the way Barry, they have many options depending on what you want from an air fryer. I have also heard that the Cosori dual blaze is good too Love the videos!
My first time here Barry, excellent video. Subscribed. I also got a budget air fryer to try out and it is great at some things and less great with others. But great ideas here, thanks.
@@WendyHannan-pt7ez They are great. :-) There are also disposable paper ones. Just like parchment paper or silpats on a cookie sheet, they just make cleanup soooo much easier!
Id love to see an instant pot video. I've made bone broth in mine and it came put nicer than the stove top version and took a fraction of the time but thats all so some inspiration would be great.
I use my pressure cooker as a rice cooker. Boring I know but I no longer buy expensive boil in the bag rice. I also use it to make mash but not much else atm as I’m also stuck for ideas.
I've got a Ninja air fryer that comes with a meat probe to cook big joints of meat perfectly 👌 I've also got the instant pot duo whisper quiet. It's SO clever and it also has a slow cooker function as well. Really good brand and they also have some models with air fryer built into them
Hi, I think that you really need to think what you want the air fryer for. I have three. A 12 litre cosori oven, this can give you a much bigger area than the basket type and bonus, you only need to wash the trays you used a quick wipe inside with a damp cloth. I also have a 24 litre oven, this does whole meals, for my family of three, sometimes 4, theres loads of them on amazon and I have a ninja speedy, which do whole meals for up to 4 meals, this a basket type and requires a tad more washing up. It does, the carb, veg and protein in around 20 mins, set it and walk away. Loving your content!
Gotta be honest, I do like this budget air fryer, but I think i'll upgrade soon, any suggestions for what air fryer to get would be appreciated, cheers

Cheers Lisa
Try a baked camembert! Just cut a cross in the top, drizzle a bit of honey and sprinkle with rosemary, put in air fryer for 10 minutes, ready!

@@mrbarrylewis you should try it, I think you would make it even more marvelous lol. Also, try shrimp if you can... I'm kinda afraid to do it lol
This seems like sacrilege somehow but it might be worth trying anyway xD
I have the Ninja Foodi dual baskets. I have silicone inserts bought on Amazon that fit each basket. The Ninja dual basket has several modes, Air fryer, bake, roast, dehydrate, reheat. I use it mainly on bake actually. I do make garlic bread in it, usually using Focaccia on air fry, and I cook fish in it. I use it for roast potatoes, and at the same time, also roast carrots and parsnips. Also with this model, you can put two different items in the baskets, cook at different temperatures and for different times. There's a mode which will make both baskets finish cooking at the same time, if the time in each basket is different. While a larger basket is handy for obvious reasons, having the two baskets is more versatile I think.
Thank you Barry great recipes. I’m on my second air fryer, this one is a Russel Hobbs $120 Australian dollars ,I’m really happy with this one. I’m going to try all your recipes, I really like the prawn one, I’ve never cooked fish in my air fryer. I haven’t used my oven in months 😉 I’m watching from Australia 🇦🇺🐨
I have a similar size fryer and keep the tin foil flan and quiche dishes to use in mine. They wash good also for reuse.
I have the Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer which has a pressure cooking lid and an air fryer lid and it's brilliant,I also have another two Instant air fryers,the Instant Vortex Plus 5.7 Ltr with the clear front and the Instant Vortex Plus Versazone 8.5 Ltr which has a large drawer that you can put a separator in the middle and use it as two independent drawers with different times and temperatures,they are all amazing appliances and I wouldn't buy any other brand,my oven is now a storage unit for my air fryer accessories,a great video,thanks for the recipes
🇨🇦 I have a Cosori multi oven that I have air fried in for years, and recently broke down and bought a Ninja Foodi smart 6 in 1 - what I am trying to say is, the Cosori or Ninja brands are awesome & highly recommend if you can get them there.
Phillips xl airfryer best one I have tested had it since 2016 and still going replaced my oven and deepfryer and always better results then my fan oven
I love how enthusiastic you are about cooking after all the years! But seriously get an instant pot! That appliance has changed my life of cooking!!
My waffle stuffer has just arrived from Amazon U.K. and I am loving it. I can see you doing all sorts in one of those. The American version has a brilliant grip handle. I got mine out with a wooden spatula and it was perfect.
Get a Cosori air fryer I love mine it is the best and works amazing! Worth the money!!!! So many options 5 minute preheat!
I agree, love my Cosori!
I love how everything turned out it would make a nice date night meal
As for a new air fryer I've owned a ninja foodie air fryer for years & it'll be better than your budget buy too
My wife and I got an unopened Instant Pot brand air fryer combo at a thrift store. It’s brilliant. It air “fries,” broils, bakes, and dehydrates, though I haven’t verified that last one. It’s shaped closer to a cube than the odd egg shape many are. I vote for a multi-function, whichever the brand.
I have a ninja foodi max. It pressure cook, steams, slow cooks on 2 setting, high or low, and it also air fries. I only use my oven if I’m doing a Sunday roast dinner now.
you can get airfryer liners - basically massive muffin forms - to keep it cleanish when cooking without the insert
Yeah, I love the liners both for clean up and preserving the sauces need for certain dishes.
I slow cooked belly pork in mine last night then upped the temp to the highest to make the crackling.
Oh nice, your air fryer has a slow cook option?
I LOVE pressure cookers. They cook everything soooo fast, even Fr frozen.
I use a ninja foodi toaster oven/air fryer and I absolutely love it. Highly recommend!!!
I love my Cuisinart digital convection air fryer. It has no Teflon or PFOAs so it’s less toxic than the Teflon lined ones. Thoroughly recommend it!
Thanks Barry, you have given me some great Ideas for the 2 air-dryers that we have. You got me, I've subscribed....
Garlic bread you should try this a wrap, cheese I use mozzarella garlic granules and mixed herbs then do another layer on top cook for around 9 mins on 180 wow this bread is to die for
I use the ninja 11 in one, pressure cook then finish off with air fry or bake to crisp meat. Pressure cookers are great.
ive been using air fryers for about 2 decades now and still love it.
Were they invented 20 years ago, I don’t think so?
Presto pressure canner and an instant pot!! Must haves!
Can't get the presto pressure canner in the UK 😢 can't import it either as it's not compatible with our 240v system either. I watch a few American homesteading channels that use it in addition to a stove top canner and they peaked my interest, was gutted after researching.
@@nixi-bixi hate to hear that. There have been several things I have seen that I can’t get here so I understand that feeling.
I've got the Instant Vortex plus airfryer....it continously makes me look better than I actually am in the kitchen
Philips Premium Airfryer XXL HD9867/90 is the one if you wish to upgrade. We are using it on a daily basis for very a long time now. It is big enough and for standard things it calculates cooking time based on food weight. On top of that it has a lot of additional accessories you could buy (grill, pizza kit, baking tray for cakes and etc.).
Oh no you have made me feel hungry now hahaha they all look great and i am surprised with some of the ideas. Thank you.
My husband loves the chicken wings and ribs I do in the Air fryer. The pressure pan (Instant Pot) is great too.
Me and my wife both love the air fryer, but love our instant pot more. I usually stuff 2 chuck roasts from Aldi in there with water(or cheap beer!) on the bottom, and just seasoned salt the whole thing and add yellow mustard/hot sauce. I have yet to have better pot roast, I leave it in for 1 hour 20 minutes to make sure it falls apart. 😁
Great vid. Instant Pot is awesome so can definitely recommend trying that. It can do entry level sous vide and slow cook as well.
I have the Ninja toaster oven/air fryer. I have a small kitchen, so I opted for the fold-up model and I love it! It even opens on the bottom for easy cleaning. They make a taller version, which fits whole chickens. I’m in the US, so I’m not sure which models you’ll have available.
Here in this area of America, we call your Enchiladas, smothered burritos.
Taco Bell had the same recipe and called it The Enchirito. They bring it back every now and then. It also is basically the same recipe. Great use of your fryer! I love watching your videos! Especially when your wife is with you, her expressions and quite comments are epic to me!❤
Super great!! Thanks for these recipes ❤
I'm newer to an air fryer and still not sure how and what to cook in it 😂
Your videos help so much and bring such joy!
Some of the best parts of my day ❤
Many blessings to you all ❤
Cosori blaze. It has elements on top and bottom. Love it.
I have 2..... a cheapo Tower one and a Cosori..... i use them most days (or one of them). They are brilliant..... try wrapping bacon rashers around a wooden spoon before taking them off and putting them in the fryer.... you can get a whole packet in there by doing that! Bacon tubes!
One that will give rotisserie function, hysapientia which I have is so versatile, you can do anything, also instant pot which gives you the cooking meat without losing moisture, it makes great stir fry and really good mixed rice recipes in alot of the time 3 x as fast, and less washing up bonus hope this help with your choice.🤗
i got the Ninja Foodi MAX 7-in-1 Multi-Cooker 7.5L OP450UK and only started using it fairly recently but still like it however it does have downsides its a top loader rather than tray based but its much cheaper to run than a full oven
You might want to take a look at the Ninja Foodi 15 in 1.
Its a pressure cooker, steamer, oven, air fryer, dehydrator, grill etc.
I don't know if anyone's mentioned this already. But I seriously recommend using ramekins for various recipes. Especially for a sauce. But they're also great for making eggs in the airfryer.
We love our ninja foodi flex basket air fryer 11 qt. It has one giant basket that can be divided into two, so you can have two different programs running, or one big one like a whole roast chicken. The basket, crisping racks, and divider are all dishwasher safe. We use it all the time.
Cosori TurboBlaze is a really good model. It has a square basket which gives more room than a round one n
This was a delight and very full of ideas! Bravo!
I love an air fryer. Especially cooking a full roast chicken in it. Super crispy and juicy.
try a power airfryer xl.. I'm on my second one. It has three shelves and a rotisserie. can actually cook a whole meal in it!
Ninja all the way Barry, they have many options depending on what you want from an air fryer. I have also heard that the Cosori dual blaze is good too Love the videos!
My first time here Barry, excellent video. Subscribed. I also got a budget air fryer to try out and it is great at some things and less great with others. But great ideas here, thanks.
They make silicone liners for the air fryers-total game changer!
Those liners sound perfect, I haven’t seen them 👍
@@WendyHannan-pt7ez They are great. :-) There are also disposable paper ones.
Just like parchment paper or silpats on a cookie sheet, they just make cleanup soooo much easier!
Id love to see an instant pot video. I've made bone broth in mine and it came put nicer than the stove top version and took a fraction of the time but thats all so some inspiration would be great.
You might be in luck there ;)
I use my pressure cooker as a rice cooker. Boring I know but I no longer buy expensive boil in the bag rice. I also use it to make mash but not much else atm as I’m also stuck for ideas.
The burritos in the air fryer is a great idea 🎉❤
I have basic aitrfyer. Cooked lots in it have BBQ space ribs yesterday was delicious
I've got a Ninja air fryer that comes with a meat probe to cook big joints of meat perfectly 👌
I've also got the instant pot duo whisper quiet. It's SO clever and it also has a slow cooker function as well. Really good brand and they also have some models with air fryer built into them
Hi, I think that you really need to think what you want the air fryer for. I have three. A 12 litre cosori oven, this can give you a much bigger area than the basket type and bonus, you only need to wash the trays you used a quick wipe inside with a damp cloth. I also have a 24 litre oven, this does whole meals, for my family of three, sometimes 4, theres loads of them on amazon and I have a ninja speedy, which do whole meals for up to 4 meals, this a basket type and requires a tad more washing up. It does, the carb, veg and protein in around 20 mins, set it and walk away.
Loving your content!
This was a fantastic pitch. Happy for him!
They all sound yummy and I am going to try them. Thanks
Barry,i have a Ninja AF300UK airfryer,can't really go wrong with that range ! 😊
I have two air fryers. One is basket style Cosori 5.8 , the other is Gormia double door oven style. I use the basket more often.
Does the double door one have many benefits?
