Finally! Someone who cooks something other than chicken and rice with frozen peas and carrots in a stock! I watched a bunch of videos and they all cook the same thing, which made me think it was the only meal it could cook. Great video, thank you!
I have just bought this Ninja Speedi and was looking up to see other people’s suggestions etc…..I came across yours and found it to be very informative. Thank you xx
You can buy a sort of grid-mesh to cover the lid inside that keeps it clean and goes in the dish washer... or by hand. Just keeps the top element cleaner.
I have about 5 or 6 Ninja products and love them all but have to say the Speedi is my favourite, I use it all the time. Thanks for this video, there’s quite a few you have done that I will be trying myself this week, once again thank you 🙏
Thanks for letting me know - i'm still experimenting with it all the time , if i come up with anything else exciting i'll be sure to write a blog post about it and do a video. please let me know if you can recommend a dish for me to try.
@@TastefullyVikkieNinja recently released Ninja Combi oven and it is a superior product to Speedy. More convenient and costs almost the same money. It is not yet available in UK.
I have just found your video as I am thinking of buying one, great to watch your honest opinion and for actually trying all the different programs thank you
It's a wonderful device. I have one and we use it at least once a week. Mine really cooks higher and hotter than a lot of vids I've watched (may be due to our non-humid environment). So, I've learned to turn the temp lower; got it nailed now. Yes, the feet flip in too easily... that is a negative. It takes some fidgeting and working out at times. With the pizza, probably don't need parchment paper because the air needs to circulate underneath. I spray the tray with only avocado or olive oil. Clean-up is a breeze. Great video! Thank you. :)
Just bought one of these, (Sept 24) and was looking for some real world tests as some channels seem to under cook stuff. I think with all these appliances, you need to experiment and modify a little to get the results you need.
I've heard the Ninja Combi is slightly bigger, and has a different form factor (mini-oven with regular front-swinging door) along with larger size. It still has the same steam crisp mode, but may not have the sous vide.
Great review. I have several ninja appliance’s and the speedi by far is my favourite. I put mine on my hob, (hob is turned off at the electrical switch) I put the extractor fan on when the speedi is on, no problem with the cupboards that way.
Steak cooked in one of these gadgets is brilliant . Let the steak get to roomtemperature . Sprinkle with salt , pepper and a little garlic seasoning . Do the same to both sides . Put steak and frozen Gourmet chips on crisping tray on low level . Using bake/ roast at 200 cook for 11 to 12 minutes . Bon app .
Great video Vikki but honestly I think Frylight ruins pans and surfaces. It leaves an icky sticky layer on the surfaces. I prefer the olive oil spray. Not many more calories & more natural. You're looking well 😊
Thanks so much. And yes, I do agree... after a while, it can ruin pans and pure oil spray doesn't have that alcohol taste. Once I run out, you've reminded me to going back to use a better one. I've looked at the replacement racks for these machines and they're not cheap 😅
Walmart has this one on sale right now for $119.00... I also have the Ninja dual basket 4 quart each basket. I have been using it for about a year now and I love it...
I thought about getting the dual basket. But my son just moved out, and I gave him my air fryer (single basket) and slow/pressure cooker...so I went withbthis foodi so I'd only need 1 appliance...
I bought mine and I love it. Yes, the top bit is a painful foot going in and looking at the underneath. However, I love cooking fried eggs in mine and cheese on toast. My cooker has gone. X
Great video. I have the speedie and it's a game changer. Frylight will ruin the non stick surface. It ruined my ninja air fryer basket but replaced it.
Such a good review, but we didn’t get feedback on every dish that you made. There were several things that looked good, but u didn’t comment on every dish. So I’d love to know how they all tasted and how was the texture etc.
Excellent video/tutorial. I had one of these and had a few issues with it, the main one was the slow cooker was very bad and I ended up having to throw it away and ordered take out. The fan started banging in the lid, I have to say, ninja were great offering a replacement. Overall, the unit was great and I am going to find a new home for my air fryer and buy another one. Real great refresher video Thanks so much. . For anyone who is interested, VERY are selling them for £139 at the moment. (15/12/2023)
It's funny you mention about the slow cooker function. My brother has a Ninja Foodi and doesn't rate the slow cooker function. He's heard you have to sear/get the food up to temperature first in order for it to work. I haven't tried it from cold, so it's worth me testing.
The slow cooker function has 3 pre set levels, which cant be turned up or down, I set it to high initially and later turned it down to low. Even in low, it continued to cook at the same level bubbling in a very rapid boil and it was basically just boiling the steak, as there is no control over the temperature and it turned to leather. It also used used up over 3 pints of stock.@@johnnykempo
10:50 hahaha what are you like Try this... put 500ml water in the bottom, then put frozen mackerel fillets on the shelf at the top. "Steam Bake" for 15 mins. I can't remember the exact time, it might only be 12 mins, you need to look in the book (frozen fish on Steam Bake is listed around the back of the book somewhere, I think under the pale blue headings) and the water does take a while to get up to temp before it starts cooking, but on the "Steam Bake" setting I think it does have a preheating phase to it (unlike just normal air frying that seems to need about 3 mins adding to any cooking time and unlike the smaller tapered cylinder type fryers that don't start cooking until they get up to temp) so it's OK to put the actual time in. *OH MY GOD the fish you end up with at the end!* Crispy brown skin and an incredible flavour. It's like I'm eating a totally different food to the usual foil wrapped oven baked fish. Be warned though - the fish does make a mess and gets a bit stuck to the shelf and it's also nearly touching the element at the top of the Ninja, but there is some clearance there. You won't believe how amazing mackerel with skin on (and I guess most other fish like it) comes out doing it this way. Never had fish like it.
Thank you so much for this Vikkie. My daughter gave me a Ninja Speedi for Christmas and it's great. The instructions that come with it are confusing to me, probably because it does so many different things, and there seem to be so many American recipes using convenience foods, so it was lovely to come across your cookery demonstrations and the recipes look delicious. Needless to say, I'm looking forward to trying them myself. Particularly the pizza's. Can I do a ready prepared chicken pie I bought from the Butchers? It has a pastry topping and is in a foil container. Not sure what temperature I do it on. 🤔
I struggle with mine as I really don’t understand what each of the cooking settings are used for. I need to do a bit more testing. Thanks for the video.
I love everything about this review, you and your gorgeous dog. 😁 Oh, about that pizza. Would it help to make the bottom part (together with the top) of the ninja heat the pizza crust or is that not possible/ a bad idea for some reason? I mean instead of having to use a full oven like you suggested.
thank you ....and the website is really interesting ...you cover every option 🥰possible with great in-depth explanations ....a lot of work ....really helpful and inspiring. @@TastefullyVikkie
I have about 4 or 5 Ninja cooking products and I find most be very good. In fact only one I have found to be not so good as it is difficult to clean. Even though I have a foodi, which is excellent, I did buy the Speedi which I really do love. I haven’t noticed a problem with the extended feet collapsing when removing the air frying tray. A brilliant little bit of kit.
Thankyou for watching the video, other than my own issue with the collapsing feet, do you think i captured the benefits of the machine ok? it's my first ninja (i've had other airfryers that i can't really complain about) but this is a really cool kitchen toy and i keep finding more benefits the more i experiment.
@@TastefullyVikkie yes indeed a very good review. The machine is very versatile. Enjoy using it. They do take a bit of getting used to due to the shorter cooking times and reduced heat needed.
My Ninja Speedi doesn’t have a Grill ICON. Mine is Air Fry, Bake/roast, Dehydrate, Broil, Sear/Sauté, Slow Cook & Sous Vide. Maybe my US Speedi’s Grill function is Broil? But I love using my Ninga Grill for Steaks. Perfect every time & melts like butter they are so tender.
Thanks! And glad you found it balanced so you can make up your own mind. We use it almost every day as an air fryer or oven... BUT, very rarely for the rapid meal function which is a shame. I don't eat pasta or rice and my husband seems to want chips with everything 😆 I have been baking more cakes in it, because it's a little bit quicker.... and come to think of it, I should really do a part 2 video 😀
Just waiting delivery tomorrow of this as only £99 via Martin Lewis code on his saving money site. I like it has buttons and not touchscreen. It looks substantial too. My only gripe is that using tong to lift crisper tray everyone doing seems a bit unsafe and why didnt ninja provide a tool for easier lifting.
I loved this review, much more detailed and authentic than the rest I’ve seen, with your many experiences and recipes - so helpful. On a side note, my word you’re pretty 🤩
Nice review with different recipes than the famous creamy pasta with chicken Do you plan to redo some of your recipe in this speedi ? that could be fun to watch and copy ;)
Hi you have a new sub. U asked for a new product in the video... Dreo ChefMaker is a new model cooker, is the same as an airfryer but with a temperature meter, it is a kickstarter product but you will definitely find videos on UA-cam and can already order it, I look forward to your new video of it when you can review it. Good explanation for this ninja speed, who knows, I might buy it as my first ninja product, good product they have. Cheers from Belgium
There are parts of this video that made me laugh, quite a lot, and if I posted why Vikkie, i suspect UA-cam would put me on the naughty step for three months... or so
Sous-Vide is basically the following: You vacuum seal for example setak and then slow cook it in an appliance like the speedi, a normal pot for a long time (under 90 degree for up to a day). :)
Great review, thanks for trying so many different recipes. I have a ninja foodi 8qt pressure cooker/air fryer that I use daily for making all kinds of meals. I was looking into the Speedi for the quickness of doing a whole meal at once. I love the idea it just seems like a good learning curve to it. Also did you try using the app and if so how did the meal turn out? Thanks 😊
This was my first Ninja as well as I wanted similar things to you. I think it's a great Ninja though it's irritating how few recipes are actually devised for the Speedi v the zillions of foodis
Watching with curiosity from Canada. I thank You for videoing.. What paper are you using inside? Is it parchment? Is the 9" round pan you used one of the accessories? I send a smile.
You’ve done some amazing food , never use metal utensils it scratches the non stick off , just buy silicone or wood ,, I’m going to try a few of these recipes out over the weekend , youre dog is gorgeous
Thankyou, you are absolutely right - i should have used silicone especially when doing a video. I do have a habbit of grabbing the nearest clean utensil and using it more gently - but i am setting a bad example. lol
The American speedi doesn’t have the grill option (at least mine doesn’t). So they must have replaced sous vide with grill. I think I’d prefer the grill option.
Thank you for this video it's great! Question to everyone, I have a few Ninja appliances, blender/food processor, Creami, air fryer duo all are great! However I really like the stainless steel liner of my instant pot. Does anyone have issues with that it's non stick? For health and longtime use?
Wonderful compilation and user advice. I'm waiting for mine to arrive as I type his so been educating myself on UA-cam. Your video is fantastic. The sausages cracked me up. After you'd said they'd grown I was waiting for the 'maybe I'll air fry my hubby' joke. But it was still funny. 😂 By the way is there any Ninja speedi recipe book you can recommend cos a lot of the ones out there seem useless for the UK.
I have 4 ninjas and that will be my next tomorrow it’s an addiction lol 😂 Hopefully it’s as good as all the reviews and I got it for £139 on Amazon prime day it’s a steal
Hi, Ms. Vicki. Thank you for the educational video. This was what I consider an investment towards time-saving family meal preparation & cooking. Also good to use during warmer months when you want to avoid turning on the oven. I'd say this was worth the money. I just tried it out & made a pork roast with potatoes & carrots following the basic guidelines for the recipe in the Ninja Speedi recipe booklet. I think it turned out nicely & will make it again. My question for you is, have you tried proofing dough for things like homemade cinnamon rolls or a loaf of bread? Can you use a glass dish (like Pyrex or Anchor Hocking) in the Ninja Speedi when proofing the dough, or does it need to be a metal one lined with parchment paper? We have a stove that works just fine it's just older than me so sometimes in order to proof the bread I have to place the dough in baking dish & let it sit covered over the burner that warms up the most when the oven is turned on. It's a bit of a pain if you ask me. Especially if you don't keep a watchful eye on it, the dough can dry out a smidge. I would really like a more efficient way to proof dough
@TastefullyVikkie hahaha. I had to check that on a map. I'm from California and my UK geography isn't the best 😭 but, I was kinda close lol from the north. Near Manchester at least. It's my dream to live in Manchester 😩
Apparently, you should only use silicone, plastic or wooden utensils when stirring/serving from the multi-cooker. Metal utensils can damage the teflon & potentially release carcinogenic toxins in your food
I was wondering same when I saw a metal spoon being used but other than that the video is very helpful.. Low and slow seems ideal.. I was wondering how French fries or nuggets do in it and the quantity you can cook at one time
Hey I'm not really commenting about the video itself but you misspelled Ninja in the title, if you edit the title you'll probably get more views from people searching for the Ninja Speedy
You need to watch all of the video as I tested it with lots of different functions and recipes. If you don't want to watch a full review of a product before buying, then that's on you. Go buy it... or don't.
Bit of a generalisation isn't it? It cooks food in less the time and at a reduced temperature. Also, who's to say these "people" don't have solar energy?
My Smart meter indicates very little. Once it has got up to temperature it can use very low energy to keep such a small space hot. My meter suggests 3 pence an hour.
I got one of these at sams club $57.00 off from $99.98. I'm hoping to save some energy from using my trad oven. I also have the foodi and you can cook a whole chicken in it. Hope this one is as good... maybe I'll give the foodi to my father. "That sausage looks quite rude right there". HAHA I also wondered how you are supposed to take the air fry tray out while there is food on it.. they should have made a tool to do that. I hope nobody burned their fingers during testing..
Finally! Someone who cooks something other than chicken and rice with frozen peas and carrots in a stock! I watched a bunch of videos and they all cook the same thing, which made me think it was the only meal it could cook. Great video, thank you!
Regarding the temp reset, try to check a few seconds before the timer runs out, that way you can add time to the original cook
Thank you for demonstrating the diversity of this product and the thought process for a win!
I have just bought this Ninja Speedi and was looking up to see other people’s suggestions etc…..I came across yours and found it to be very informative. Thank you xx
This is now my go to ninja and cooking device. I absolutely love the presence free cooking
You can buy a sort of grid-mesh to cover the lid inside that keeps it clean and goes in the dish washer... or by hand. Just keeps the top element cleaner.
Ooh, I never knew that! Thanks 😊
Sounds very useful. I'm all about easy cleaning. Where do you find accessories. I can't find any comparable ones.
Where could you get that? thanks

Glad you found it useful! Since filming, just to bear in mind, something we do miss is the basket option when cooking French fries.
@@TastefullyVikkie Thanks I will keep my old air fryer just in case
It's a wonderful device. I have one and we use it at least once a week. Mine really cooks higher and hotter than a lot of vids I've watched (may be due to our non-humid environment).

Yes, you cannot use their temp settings, they are all way too high. The times too are way off.
Agree. I was like - NO. Don't use the paper. Oh well. Trial and error.
Just bought one of these, (Sept 24) and was looking for some real world tests as some channels seem to under cook stuff. I think with all these appliances, you need to experiment and modify a little to get the results you need.
I've heard the Ninja Combi is slightly bigger, and has a different form factor (mini-oven with regular front-swinging door) along with larger size. It still has the same steam crisp mode, but may not have the sous vide.
Really good point you made about opening the lid under the cupboards. Something to consider for sure.
Totally.... and if the only clear space isn't that close to a plug socket.. that would be irritating!!
Great review. I have several ninja appliance’s and the speedi by far is my favourite. I put mine on my hob, (hob is turned off at the electrical switch) I put the extractor fan on when the speedi is on, no problem with the cupboards that way.
@@jackywilliams1336 That's what I do but my surface tops are just about able to cope with the speedi not being under a cupboard as well

the steam air fry is really good for burgers and thick cut bacon, gammon steaks and the like.
Great video Vikki but honestly I think Frylight ruins pans and surfaces. It leaves an icky sticky layer on the surfaces. I prefer the olive oil spray. Not many more calories & more natural. You're looking well 😊
Thanks so much. And yes, I do agree... after a while, it can ruin pans and pure oil spray doesn't have that alcohol taste. Once I run out, you've reminded me to going back to use a better one. I've looked at the replacement racks for these machines and they're not cheap 😅
I use olive oil too.
Yea it ruined my first air fryer 😢

baking on parchment would stop that?
I cook pizza first, then add topping and cheese and cook until cheese we’ll melted.
Everything comes out crispy.
Yeah couldn’t agree more! I really love it and use it almost everyday! But it’s always difficult to check on the food at the bottom!
I'm hoping one of those lifting attachments will solve this problem, unless you have one?
I have some little tongs that work well

*OH MY GOD the fish you end up with at the end!*
Crispy brown skin and an incredible flavour. It's like I'm eating a totally different food to the usual foil wrapped oven baked fish.

Do you prefer ninja foodi 8qt or Speedi??
This was my first Ninja as well as I wanted similar things to you. I think it's a great Ninja though it's irritating how few recipes are actually devised for the Speedi v the zillions of foodis
Your a great speaker. == Love your imagination and thoughts. == At 78, Santa Amazon sent me this model.== Learning is NEVER over.

Your' "sausage" reaction got me ...HA!
Love your style…Did I see you use a metal spoon though when checking the beef casserole?
Thanks.. yes... I did 😬 I was being too cheap to buy plastic as they are all in storage while we are in the middle of buying a house
The American speedi doesn’t have the grill option (at least mine doesn’t). So they must have replaced sous vide with grill. I think I’d prefer the grill option.
that's interesting, i wonder if our pallets are that different either side of the pond.lol
But you do have Prove function. Why Ninja made two versions is a mystery
Thank for let me see how to use this ninja foodi 😊
Well made video, thanks
what is the brown stuff you added to the monkey bread? that looked delicious!
"Sous Vide" my interpretation is like boiled meat. Something like boiled dinner/Jiggs dinner/corned beef
Thank you for this video it's great!
Question to everyone, I have a few Ninja appliances, blender/food processor, Creami, air fryer duo all are great!
However I really like the stainless steel liner of my instant pot.
Does anyone have issues with that it's non stick? For health and longtime use?
Wonderful compilation and user advice. I'm waiting for mine to arrive as I type his so been educating myself on UA-cam. Your video is fantastic. The sausages cracked me up. After you'd said they'd grown I was waiting for the 'maybe I'll air fry my hubby' joke. But it was still funny. 😂
By the way is there any Ninja speedi recipe book you can recommend cos a lot of the ones out there seem useless for the UK.
Anyone here found a way to remove the cover on the lid to clean the insides?
Really really long preheating time for steam frying, what is the advantage to oven here?
I thought it was a bit long, but what sold it for me was less pot washing with cooker rice/pasta in the bottom and air fry a meat in the top.
The flex is way too short . Also the cover is top heavy.
I have 4 ninjas and that will be my next tomorrow it’s an addiction lol 😂
Hopefully it’s as good as all the reviews and I got it for £139 on Amazon prime day it’s a steal
Let me know how it compares 😀 I'm still yet to try cooking a whole chicken in it lol
😂I agree with the addiction I have 6 and have just brought this. I can't rate the ninja products high enough, and I use them daily .
@TastefullyVikkie we got one a few days ago and today I roasted a whole chicken in it on "steam air fry" - it was amazing and cooked in only 45 mins!
What size tin did you use for the coffee & walnut cake and what size chicken will fit in it? Ta!
Hi, I've just measured the tin and it's 21cm Diameter (8.3"), i've not tried the chicken yet, but i'll film it and let people know how i get on.
Hi, Ms. Vicki. Thank you for the educational video. This was what I consider an investment towards time-saving family meal preparation & cooking. Also good to use during warmer months when you want to avoid turning on the oven. I'd say this was worth the money. I just tried it out & made a pork roast with potatoes & carrots following the basic guidelines for the recipe in the Ninja Speedi recipe booklet. I think it turned out nicely & will make it again. My question for you is, have you tried proofing dough for things like homemade cinnamon rolls or a loaf of bread? Can you use a glass dish (like Pyrex or Anchor Hocking) in the Ninja Speedi when proofing the dough, or does it need to be a metal one lined with parchment paper? We have a stove that works just fine it's just older than me so sometimes in order to proof the bread I have to place the dough in baking dish & let it sit covered over the burner that warms up the most when the oven is turned on. It's a bit of a pain if you ask me. Especially if you don't keep a watchful eye on it, the dough can dry out a smidge. I would really like a more efficient way to proof dough
Sue Vie is temp controlled water bath cooking.
Which part of the UK are you from? Trying to place the accent 🤔
I swear. If you say manchester!
Lol, I'm from Doncaster, but I've Iived in Lincolnshire and the Midlands, then back to Yorkshire since leaving home for Uni 😄
@TastefullyVikkie hahaha. I had to check that on a map. I'm from California and my UK geography isn't the best 😭 but, I was kinda close lol from the north. Near Manchester at least. It's my dream to live in Manchester 😩
Apparently, you should only use silicone, plastic or wooden utensils when stirring/serving from the multi-cooker. Metal utensils can damage the teflon & potentially release carcinogenic toxins in your food
I think you may like the Ninja Combi a bit better than the Speedi
Can you steam veggies in the speedi ? Tia
That's a very good question... I'll have to try! I'm not sure.
Hi Vicky
I am not kidding lass your next ninja should be the XL grill but wait till it's on offer lol.
How come? :)
Have you made fries in it?
Yes, it's a bit fiddly on the top rack in terms of getting them out but it takes a lot quicker! About 8-10 minutes
Nice video. Do you recommend.
Yes, I love it!
@@TastefullyVikkie good
❤️❤️❤️
FYI.. I've just spotted it's currently £138 if anyone wants one amzn.to/3O8fHEC (affiliate link)
£139 today at amazon
@@kevinhale888thanks! I've just updated it!
how is the non stick holding up?
Still non stick on both the basket and the tray 😀
I was wondering same when I saw a metal spoon being used but other than that the video is very helpful.. Low and slow seems ideal.. I was wondering how French fries or nuggets do in it and the quantity you can cook at one time
@@TastefullyVikkie ok thx for reply. i have the foodie pressure cooker, and steam/airfrie is very good for hole chicken.
The foodi is much better. Have to have pressure cooking in it. IMHO
Hey I'm not really commenting about the video itself but you misspelled Ninja in the title, if you edit the title you'll probably get more views from people searching for the Ninja Speedy
Haha.. well spotted!!!! And thanks for the heads up 😀
Lmao, it looks rude
So, did anything “happen”? I skipped through the video to try and find the part where something “happened”. You’re not going to fool me, missy.
You need to watch all of the video as I tested it with lots of different functions and recipes. If you don't want to watch a full review of a product before buying, then that's on you. Go buy it... or don't.
Hate the sound!
The beeps?
Or the fan type noise?
Bikes are for children.
People has no idea how much power that dumb thing uses
Bit of a generalisation isn't it? It cooks food in less the time and at a reduced temperature. Also, who's to say these "people" don't have solar energy?
My Smart meter indicates very little. Once it has got up to temperature it can use very low energy to keep such a small space hot. My meter suggests 3 pence an hour.
why talk so fast on an instruction video?
Someone has clearly never been to the North of England..
I got one of these at sams club $57.00 off from $99.98. I'm hoping to save some energy from using my trad oven. I also have the foodi and you can cook a whole chicken in it. Hope this one is as good... maybe I'll give the foodi to my father. "That sausage looks quite rude right there". HAHA I also wondered how you are supposed to take the air fry tray out while there is food on it.. they should have made a tool to do that. I hope nobody burned their fingers during testing..
Good machine but ugly. Too industrial looking.
🎉Thanks @rnrbishop. I have been looking for my question about being able to make burgers.
