I just sent my wife your channel. She was almost in tears realizing that she can do this the healthy way. You make things so doable and without sacrificing flavor. Just wanted to say thank you from the states 😊
Lately, I've air fried GRAINS! Yes, grains. First I season and overcook the grains so they're stickier. Next I air fry them with parchment paper for about 380F for 10-12 min. You can keep them loose or if they're sticky enough, you can form patties and use the patties as toast. Best grains I've ever tasted. Also, large, whole mushrooms air fry really well. The flavor becomes very concentrated. I make cookies in it, too. Thank you for the great content, Chelsea!
Sounds a bit similar to arancini
Thanks for the tip random internet lady, I tried air frying my rice and IT WAS SO GOOD. Like what! Your efforts to share have been appreciated xxxx
What type of grains are you using?
Recipe for airfield grains?!
I've done grains and mushrooms too. It's great. My favorite dessert is an air fried banana.Yum!!! I pretty much air fry everything.
Love the air fryer for Tofu but currently obsessed with these curried sweet potatoes:
1 large or 2 small sweet potatoes
2 tsp oil...can be omitted
1/3 tsp (0.33 tsp) or more salt
1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) garam masala or use curry powder of choice
1/3 tsp (0.33 tsp) cinnamon
1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) turmeric
1/4 tsp (0.25 tsp) or more cayenne
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Toss in oil, salt and spices until well coated.
Air fry around 380/390 for 10-15 minutes.
I drain and rinse cannellini beans or chick peas, dry them fairly well, season them to taste and cook in the air fryer at 190 to 200 for about 15 minutes, shaking halfway through. Be careful of using any seasonings with high sugar content in large amounts as it will melt and liquify, slowing the cooking process and causing the sugar to burn in that extended time.
What you get are “popped” beans, light and super crunchy. Can be used in salads and bowls or eaten as a snack. Happy eating!
Air fryer and instapot changed my life can’t live without either one!
Agree, this doodad has changed my life! I do everything with it : make bean and herb patties, cook rice and veges together, make a falafel roll with baked falafal, hummus, grated carrot, sauerkraut, kale etc - just everything. I do potato, large diced, (precooked in the instant pot) with a 'Spanish mix' of spices (cayenne, paprika, cumin, etc), garlic powder, turmeric powder, black pepper, fresh ground kalonji seeds (Nigella sativa NOT nigella seeds) well mixed and spread on a silicon mat for the air fryer. I spread cherry tomatoes all around outside edge and air fry for 15 mins on highest setting of 230°. Meanwhile I chop a few generous handfuls of parsley, 1 or 2 spring onion, juice a whole lemon. Arrange potatoes over parsley and spring onion, mixed together then put all those cherry tomato gems on other side of the plate, pour lemon juice over the potato. This is sooo divine I feel deprived if I don't have it once a day. Air fryers are the bomb.
For those in the states, I just bought one from Costco for $35. It’s 7.5 quarts and it is awesome.
I also bought the same one and it works great.
What brand? Costco’s?
@@maggiesmith6519 the brand name Gourmia from Costco.
@@really5448 I just received that one for my birthday and am looking for ideas!
I have had an airfryer now for about 3 years. I will never be without it. We have a Breville smart oven and when we reno'd the kitchen I got a shelf made specially for it. We dont use our oven at all anymore. Love your channel x
I couldn't agree more. I love my air fryer! It makes baking things so much easier. I took a long time to buy one because it felt like *another* trendy appliance, but it has really been a great asset in my kitchen. I love sautéing tofu in a teriyaki sauce and eating with broccoli and rice. Or I could just snack on it alone lol.
Welcome to the air fryer world! I got my first one a little over 5 years ago, mostly for tofu, but I soon started using it for everything. I actually wore that first one out I used it so much and am on my second! I also rarely use my oven which is huge as I live in Phoenix where it gets very hot, so not turning on the oven is a plus. I also have very little counter space but I made a place for the air fryer.
I air fry chick peas and they are delicious! Thanks for all your tips! Absolutely love your channel ❤️
Be great to know if you season/flavour your chickpea?
That's it, you've convinced me Chelsea. I'm buying an Air Fryer.
Just bought it & going to try it for the first time.
Cosori is a Good one.
"the air fryer has basically replaced my oven" says everyone who ever has had the privilege of having this amazing applicance ❤️
Amazon sells round parchment papers that have holes in them so you can keep your fryer cleaner, and still have the air flow. Nice when cooking something sticky.
I joined the airfryer gang about two months ago and, like you say, it's changed my life. Got mine from the warehouse because $ but I'm so happy with it.
If I had to change anything I would go with a bigger size because cooking chips for the whole fam takes longer when they're all bunched up in the basket.
Would love to see more vids like this Chels, thanks heaps 😊
The air-fryer changed my life too, then I got the ninja foodie (pressure cooker + airfryer in one, plus several other functions) and OMG I am obsessed! Instant pot has an equivalent version as well. Seriously, I can never go back to not having this!
I have the instant pot version but the only problem is that it's really not big enough. I'm waiting until ovens come with air fryers so when I re-do my kitchen I can get one.
Am in a country where can only get the ninja foodie. Is it confusing to use? Is the pressure cooker like what I’ve heard about an InstaPot? Is it safe?
@@hortensejones4050 They are both amazing and easy to use. They are pretty much identical. Look up some youtube tutorials so you can see how easy it is!
Haven’t had mine too long so not many suggestions yet but I do love it! One thing I tried and really liked was tossing whole mini peppers in. So good! Mushrooms were good, just quartered the large ones and carrots, sliced them. Everything has such a nice roast to them. Thanks for the reheated potatoes and tofu ideas!
“If you get a place on my counter you better be really darn amazing.” Yaaaassss! That’s what I tell my husband about my vita mix that I use every day. I’m considering getting an air fryer and this video just might change my mind.
I have been bingeing your videos the last few weeks! Love that you are a kiwi chick, makes it so much easier knowing I'll be able to get all the stuff I need to make some of the things you make 😀
And I love how you say you are lazy and look for the fastest, easiest ways of doing stuff. I have 3 kids and quick and easy plant based food is exactly what I need lol. Thanks for the awesome content 🤙
One thing to look out for with an airfryer is if it has a teflon coating or a ceramic coating, go for the ceramic one.
Why ? Can you share reason please
@@troy9407 For the exact same reasons you don't want a teflon non stick normal pan anymore. When heated it creates toxic fumes, peoples pet birds have been known to die from it (they are much more sensitive to it, like a canary in the colemines).
@@11235Aodh Oh wow thankyou so much for this information. I appreciate it alot.
Edit.
The pet birds dying is scary. That's some toxic fumes...
@@11235Aodh This is a complete myth. Modern teflon coated pans are perfectly safe.
@@jinxterx Why risk it when you can choose otherwise. Some brands might not use that exactly "safe" type or whatever. It's not like that doesn't happen often enough. "BPA-free" comes to mind, when they just replace the BPA with something else just as harmful or potentially more harmful.
Thanks for sharing Chels, I've been wanting an airfryer for a while, great to know expensive isn't always better, yay for kmart 👌
I bought the Cosori after seeing High Carb Hannah make potatoes in it. If I could afford the Breville and if I had room for it, I definitely would have bought that model. That's the one they use on Well Your World and I believe it's the one Kiki uses as well. I love the one I bought, it was less than $100 and I use it EVERY SINGLE DAY especially in the summer!
Congrats Chelsea. So much fun to get something new that really works for you. Have fun.
I have an air fryer function on my little toaster oven and I use it daily. Such an amazing invention. Thanks for sharing your recipes!
So Cool!! I JUST BOUGHT ONE LAST NIGHT!!! ❤️ and now I see your video ! Great ideas 💡 gonna try everything you showed!!! Thank you ❤️
Here in the U.K. we love ninjas I have a 9 in 1 pot which does everything from slow cook to airfry to dehydrate . Also have a grill / airfryer . I’ve just purchased a ninja soup maker it’s amazing . Couldn’t be without them xxxx
Chels loving your content more and more these days! Enjoy your US Trip
Hi Chelsea I did have an air fryer a couple of years ago but gave it away. It was practically brand new. I ended up finding something that was smaller but a multi-function mini oven that also has an air fryer function. For us it made more sense than having a dedicated space for the air fryer. We use it all the time.
I did the same thing. We use our toaster oven every day so I wanted to get a toaster oven combo. Which I did. Thankfully I didn’t get rid of my original stand alone air fryer, because the new toaster oven air fryer combo doesn’t crisp up nearly as well as the original air fryer.
Chelsea since watching this video I have been obsesssssssed with eating sweet potato toast. It's just so. freaking. good. I didn't even think I liked sweet potatoes that much, but done like that with avocado and tomato it's just what. Incredible. I also had no idea that tomatoes and sweet potato would work together - I'm usually pretty good at food pairing in my head, but this was an unexpected win. Thanks for your content :) xxx
This breakfast is a dream! ❤l really like you and your family! I hope your husband is ok?! You bring back memories. I'm from Switzerland and lived back in 1987 for three years in NZ. Best time of my life! Great people! Be blessed! 🎉
Just bought one a month ago and absolutely it’s a game changer- love the vegan recipes
I had a Kmart one for a few years and loved it but it was damaged accidentally so when I went to replace it we were talked into an expensive one in the Christmas sales and I have to say it was worth every cent. Most things were good in the Kmart fryer but it is fantastic in the Phillips. Easy to clean and just works so much better. The Kmart one was a great starting point though. I make corn chips from tortillas , just cut them into triangles with my kitchen scissors and throw them in for about 6 minutes. Whole mushrooms tossed in some soy sauce. Frozen broccoli, tip a whole bag in. Yum.
Just got one too! Excited to see what you came up with. ❤️
I bought a cheapo kogan one 11 years ago and said if I liked it I'd upgrade when it died.....I can't kill the thing😂😂😂 however, we did upgrade middle of last year and got an oven size one. Depends how many I'm feeding and what we have if I use the shelf one or the rocket style! The rocket style is definitely easier to use as can just shake it around, but the oven shelves are very practical too.
I do enjoy having both for different purposes! So great in summer because it doesn't heat the whole house up and so much quicker than an oven.
Don't forget though that using the airfryer does increase the calorie density of food as it dries it out considerably!
I have only had my air frier about 6 weeks and omg it really is a game changer x
I am disabled and often bed bound so I've kinda turned my bedroom into like a bedsit with my dressing table being hopefully a temporary kitchen x
I couldnt bend to use my kitchen oven etc but I can use my air frier from my bed cos before this I would about 8 days eating nothing!
Like you I found the biggest frier I could at the cheapest price so from Amazon and I got my 5L one for 36 British pounds including p+p.....just to see if I liked it and if I did I would invest in the dual drawer thingy from Ninja and give my Mum this one but I can tell you this....even if I do get the Ninja my beloved airfryer that I own....my cheapy is going absoloutely nowhere and most of my friends actually have 2 airfriers lol x
Basically its changed my diet completely and for the positive x Ive gone from being a carnivore to almost a vegan x Cos I can cook when I want to with ease I can cook often so much more vegetables than and yes I'm tryin tofu for the first time tomorrow in a stir fry!
I havent found anything I cant do in it so far x I have a reheat setting on mine which is perfect for wholegrain microwaveable rice....you can do a jacket potato in it....tho if you can it takes more time than microwaving it first to be fair but to me its not how long it takes its about me eating lol x
I dont really use oil though for some veggies I find a spray oil...just a little helps and again what you say about finding out for yourself is true....its simply trial and error x
I think my air frier actually saved my life and that sounds dramatic but I know my position and I was so struggling and like I say I havent...so far found anything it cant cook x
I use mine for every meal....just the last thing I ate was courgette crisps as a snack lol x
For anyone on the fence....stop being silly these things really are 👏 brilliant!
When I redid my kitchen I got rid of the full size gas stove and had a space made under the counter for an Oster countertop air fryer. It's been over three years since I've used an oven. The one I have has multiple settings but 97% of the time all I use is air fryer.
Excellent video Chelsea and it's not just these sides you are obsessed with you have a Airfryer obsession too. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕Chelsea.
I too was on the fence about an airfryer, I have a small kitchen and they seemed so big. Everyone raved about them, so I went to Kmart and bought the smaller one,I live alone. I kept it in the box and I got sick of getting it in and out of said box. It now lives on my kitchen bench lol 😂
my air fryer is like the second coming! just made a lavashe bread pizza and it is soo good. also I replaced my toaster and toaster oven so it's actually a space saver. Loving your shave fade at your nape-very cool ;-)
Never thought of air frying tomatoes but they were so good. Thanks for the idea!
I love my air fryer also!! It’s my most used appliance. I also love making fries and tofu in it!👍
Great video!
Thank you for sharing ❣️😊
Two words…. Game Changer 🎉👍👍👍
I ❤air frying steamed broccoli 🥦 It’s delicious!!!
Love this thanks sweetie ♥️
Tried the tofu and sweet potato toast in the air fryer both are awesome!! I also use my air fryer everyday and seldom use my coventional oven anymore. Going to try those tomatoes this week.
I take a block of super firm tofu and slice it to make 8 slabs. I then marinate it for about an hour or two in soy sauce , garlic powder, onion powder, nooch and a dash of liquid smoke. Pop in the air fryer 400/20 min. No need to flip. Make sure to remove from the air fryer right away tho. I slice a couple of slabs to put on my daily salad. It’s so yummy!!! Chelsea, they have perforated parchment paper for air fryers. This is what I use
I'll give it less than a year (being generous here) for that air fryer to break seeing how close it is to the wall.... They don't need too much space behind them, but they do need some room for the hot air to escape and diffuse.
I'm the same way about clutter. I like to keep things simple.
YEP....HUMMUS and POTATOES....the best! I usually add steamed broccoli too!
Yes an air fryer is a game changer in my household too. Thank you for this video. I love all your videos.
I have been watching you for 2 years and first time commenting. I really admire your work and great advice.
I have an Instant Pot Pro Crisp 7.6 litres which I upgraded 2 months ago from an Instant Pot Duo Crisp 7.6 litres which went faulty after 18 months .(I returned it and was given a full refund and so upgraded).
I have never used the air-fryer because I just don't know what to do with it. I am going try the recipes this coming week (you can tell I'm trying to avoid using it 😊).
Great suggestions and content. Thanks
I just found an instant pot brand air fryer in a charity shop for £25, made Crispy tvp and sweet potato wedges already! can’t wait to try more!
I finally purchased a tiered air fryer about a yr ago as well. I was in the same boat, just use the convection setting in the oven.. which I still use for large batches like whole potatoes or such.
I also purchased the coated bbq grill sheets and cut them to size to fit on my trays to help with any sticking.
I cook similar items as you, potatoes, tofu, veggies, etc.
It’s a great appliance and mine lives on the counter as well but I completely agree on keeping the counters empty. I keep everything else put away until I use it. I don’t like clutter either!
Another great video as always!
Also, I never thought to dip my potato fries into hummus. Next time I make some I will be trying that out!
Particia, where did you purchase the bbq grill sheets? I can’t find any that fits my air frier, but if I can cut them, they might work. Thanks.
So cool! Now I gotta get one 😁
I love how you take the food out of the air fryer and taste it then say “hot”. Lol 😂
Veggie egg rolls are so crispy and yummy 😋
I'm with you. Love ours
It's literally my most used kitchen item hands down lol
From one nz-er to another what protein powder do you like best? And source if possible ❤
My air fryer gets used all the time for felafel. Honestly air fryer falafel is the best, yet it seems others have not worked this out as I keep finding felafel near its use-by date 60% off in my supermarket.
Your patience is comparable to mine when it comes to eating hot food 😅 I eat it then do the "it's hot" dance
Hello! Thanks for making this video! I’ve had an airfryer in my Amazon shopping basket SO many times and each time talk myself out of it because I have a small Cuisinart countertop oven with a convection setting. From my research, people say it’s a similar thing! But then I see people’s food so perfectly crispy and toasted without oil. Dunno what to do!
Here is a pretty thorough explanation of the differences and taste tests! ua-cam.com/video/9sTwQ2xewIk/v-deo.html
@@poppyr4639 you are awesome! thanks!!
Air frying tofu works really well.
I make my own tortilla chips in an air fryer, it's an easy way to eliminate the usual fat that are in fried tortilla chips.
Brussels sprouts and okra
love mine
I have been air frying whole potatoes lately. They come out creamy inside and crispy outside.
What brand is your air fryer Chels?
How long do you steam the potatoes for before you air fry them ? I’ve been having a hard time with dry skins from air frying. 🥔🥔🥔
Waiting for my toaster to die before adding another counter appliance. Thinking of the Ninja flip up 8 in 1. Can anyone comment if they have one? I like the space saving idea but worried it won’t air fry like a basket model given it has too many functions. If I had the budget I’d go for the Breville.
Would you put the link to model you bought??
Whole okras , Shishito or patron peppers then dip in hummis
You are a hoot
I miss Kmart lol it was my go to store. Costco has a gourmia air fryer sale for 39.99. I was thinking of buying it but no room on my counter lol.
mate of mine has NO kitchen space so keeps his on his verandah table outside. i thought WHAAT??
but he showed me. its no problem. he runs out, tosses jug of seasoned spuds in it, sets it going for 25mins (sets simultaneous alarm on his phone to remind him), goes back inside & watches telly, outside again with his bowl at the DING! pours crunchy spuds in bowl, runs back inside, doesnt even miss his tv program.
What is your saplements? Whitening d
Does anyone know how healthy air dryers are? My little research comes up with toxicity issues within the machines materials???
Chelsea, is it fiddly to clean?
Does Cuisinart have an air fryer?
I use to do both methods now I just bake potatoes 400/18 mins
I love my air fryer more then my instant pot.
Does it ever give off a chemical smell or taste?? I love it but the plastic smell is yuck in some things.
How do you clean it?
Rinse the metal basket or use parchment paper
Haha! Thank you for saying "counter" and not "bench".
I just wish they were bigger, I find it great for me, but family size means getting the oven going again
I've heard you need some oil. Does it have a teflon pan???
I have used an air fryer for 3 years. I use no oil at all cooking plant based. I have had no sticking issues with anything I have cooked. If concerned about sticking you can use parchment paper, being careful that the edges do not ride up the sides too high towards the heat elements at the top. You can also use bbq silicone mats cut to size if using an oven-type air fryer. They have tiny holes in them so are different from oven silicone mats in that they allow the air to flow to the bottom of the food. These little steps are well worth the effort given the delicious food the air fryer produces. Happy cooking!
Does everyone preheat their air fryers?
no.
Hot potato!
You are so funny
Girl, let your food cool down from 200 degrees before touching it or putting it in your mouth 😂😂 feels like half of this video was you going OUCH OUCH OUCH ITS HOT 😂❤
I tried an air-fryer and didn't think it was anything special, so I returned it. I didn't like the fact you can't see the food inside and it was bulky for the amount of cooking space. The Breville looks better but is hugely expensive so it's a no from me. Let's use what we already have, oven, hob, toaster, microwave!
If you like the air fryer you'll love the instant. STEAMED potatoes in 8 min beginning to end
Argh! Can’t believe you got one from KMart which looks much better than the one I got from Briscoes.
The sounds is very quiet. I'm afraid I can barely hear it but I'm not sure if the problem lies with the video or my laptop. Anyone else finding the same thing?
Same audio is very low for me to
@@bearclaire Thank you. It was hard to tell if the issue was with the video or at my end.
Be careful using paper as can burn causing a fire and not advised. Use an oven bowl rather.
People think "my air frier changed my life" is an exaggeration...it's really not lol
I found it hard to hear you in this video. Maybe it was on my end?
Hard to hear you. Nice video. Please don't repeat yourself on space for your air fryer. Thanks
Recomend getting CERAMIC air fryer instead of Teflon which is toxic
Which brand makes ceramic?
@@Elizabeth-dg8dn ninja
Off gassing of Teflon heated to over 500 degrees can be toxic, if inhaled. The problematic toxic compound in Teflon was removed from consumer products in 2013. Also air fryers don't heat up to that degree. Blanket statements on toxicity is not helpful.
Modern Teflon coated products are NOT toxic. Stop spreading misinformation.
Loof for teflon in your air fryer its not healtie
Not true.
