French fries and pork chops was pretty good last tonight. I cooked a steak the night before in air fry mode. It was ok. I probably can do a better tasting steak if I experiment around some.
So I have a tray style air fryer and use both trays, covered in foil, to do bacon. 5 strips each tray for 4 mins, flip, 4 mins. As whatever else I cook, bacon is the less fuss. And when a batch is done, pouring the grease either in a makeshift tin foil cup in the sink or in a normal cup to add to gravy later is a win. Plus you can monitor in real time as it cooks compared to ovens and guessing (I'm 6' 3" and bending down to the oven is a pain). Just my 2 cents.
Two of my favorite things made in the air fryer are burgers and steaks. They taste 100% better to me than frying when we can't use the charcoal grill in the winter. Also, I'm team microwave bacon every other form of cooked bacon tastes way too greasy to me.
Interesting. A friend of mine does her burgers and steaks air fried too. But the vid says no. Bacon, micro? It's been to long since I've done that, but I shall revisit it.
I make sausage all the time in my air fryer. I just wait till it cools down then give it a wipe down. It's perfect. Plus I turn halfway. & I love burgers medium rare. Never had a problem.
I think you should try pre cooked bacon and other meats that have then been frozen. I cook my bacon, sausage and pork chops in a skillet and stove and then freeze them. Then I use the air fryer to heat them up instead of a microwave. Try it.
Regarding frozen meats, you should take a look at The Salted Pepper’s channel, Louise is the name of the lady and she’s just done a video regarding cooking steaks from frozen in the air fryer, she’s always maintained that you can’t no way, no how, cook a frozen steak in the air fryer, now she’s admitting that she was wrong and you CAN cook frozen meat perfectly in the air fryer. I’m going to ask her about burgers, but I imagine that she’ll say they can be done too.
If you watch any of the popular cooks you'll notice they all use an instant read digital thermometer to determine the correct and safe temperature to serve food.
I've been starting many foods in the microwave and then putting them in the air fryer for even faster cook times with same level of crisp. You can even preheat your air fryer while you start cooking the food in the microwave.
Air fryers seems like a better solution than microwaving food most of the time. Even though air fryers are not a full fix for food while microwaving food eliminate most of the nutritions within the food. Hmmm time to make good choices
6:40 Braille fish?? Yeah I checked, my airfryer doesn't have that function but the library has a few braille books. Don't know if any of them contain recipes for fish preparation.
Seems like these Don'ts are not really hard Don'ts. They can definitely be done and done well, depending on the air fryer, the portions, the level of fuss and mess you can tolerate. One thing I've never been able to do well is fried tofu. Doesn't come close to pan fried.
2:08 I will never, ever, fail to be amused that Family Guy made a reference to Monty Python Meaning of Life. Always tickles me when I see it. It's one of the most underrated Python films, and the best one IMO.
Word of advice, try all the things she said NOT to put in the fryer….cuz they’re all amazing air fried! Lol. Burgers and steaks come out wonderful. Even my frozen veggies come out beautifully “grilled”. I’d definitely check out some other air fryer vids as this one seems to be telling people not to do all the things they should be doing lol. Enjoy your fryer!
If I want to cook more and put fishes on top of each other (below the max indicator of course) will they still cook even though they will have much less direct contact with the heat?
Well - I am not a cook and like to thank you for the info-clip even though (except using the metal rings) I didn't learn anything I am not used too already anyway - take care!
Reading the negative reviews on Amazon on air fryers, they say the fryers take forever to cook anything and dont work for fried foods. The Air Fryers sound interesting, but I would never get one. Basically they are just a very poor version of an Cooking oven with a big fan. Some reviews say the trays that come with the units are cheap and hard to clean. Thats my review.
I only bake desserts in my oven now, ever since getting my air fryer it is LIFE lol. Everything turns out way better in there. I think it’s about getting a good one, although mine was also off Amazon, but has been going strong for years now. Best purchase of my life! U should really give one a try one day. I hesitated for a long time myself, and finally did it and have 0 regrets lol. To be honest, 90% of what’s even being said in this video is wrong. Burgers, steaks and bacon are amazing in the air fryer! Like a BBQ grill. At least that’s my experience anyway. Anywho, just thought I’d share my 2 cents lol.
I think I’ll have to respectfully disagree with everything u said not to put in an air fryer lol. My burgers turn out like I had them on a grill, my steaks absolutely get a nice lil crust on them, my bacon turns out perfectly, and my frozen veggies also turn out like they were freshly grilled. Clean up is always a breeze and nothing is ever messy. All the fatty juices flow through the basket into the bottom tray making everything healthier, crispier, and actually way easier to clean up! So ya, gotta disagree there. U may just need a better fryer lol.
I saw the video from Simple Recipes Kitchen about frozen veggies, I used to steam them in the Instant Pot and I air fried them without a thought as soon as I got my Instant Vortex. It was perfect, no more soggy/watery mess and very simple cleanup! 👌🏻👌🏻
Why, why, WHY do all of these informational videos feature the worst voiceovers?!? I presume Mashed and other YT creators are using computer text narration. They're all so annoying -- the technology just isn't there yet in replicating a professional anchor-like vocal tone. But Mashed's voice-overs are a whole other level of awful -- listening to the "voices" is like hearing fingernails on a chalkboard!
I'm feeling the same way! Her voice makes videos almost ubearable for me to listen and watch and I usually skip the video, whenever I hear her voice. Even when the topic of the video could be interesting.
I’ve heard worse voiceover voices than hers, but it’s not pleasant. Sort of a weird droll quality meant to be cute, perhaps, but that’s not all. Every phrase ends with vocal fry, which I’m assured is harmless for the voice but hurts to listen to. Nice clear enunciation at least.
What is your favorite food to cook in an air fryer?
French fries & chicken wings
French fries and pork chops was pretty good last tonight. I cooked a steak the night before in air fry mode. It was ok. I probably can do a better tasting steak if I experiment around some.
I always make my steaks in my air fryer now and they come out so good
My salmon, bacon and burgers turn out GREAT in the air fryer.
I've also done breakfast sausage in mine. It's not my favorite way, bit it's not bad
Same! I was slightly confused at this video lol.
You forgot about frozen biscuits, I do the frozen biscuits in my NuWave, and they come out great and alot faster than the oven.

Air fried grilled cheese is perfect. Never going back to preparing it any other way
Must try it I just bought mine
Really? I can't imagine an iron griddle w butter could be beat, but we shall see..

That’s how I prefer to cook my steaks and burgers! They turn out moist and delicious when done in the air fryer.

those monterey extra crunchy southwest chicken taquitos are AMAZINGLY GOOD!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing enjoyed.
Air fryer hamburgers are delicious. I've never had problems with doneness or mess.

Great for reheating McDonalds french fries

This is making my mouth water! 🤤
I appreciate the enunciation by the narrator 👍
Just gotta say my air fried burgers are great!
One thing not clear: did U leave plastic over the corn and spuds when you MW'd it?

I don't have a tray style air fryer. I got mine at Dollar General Market for $35. I wish I had a different one.
Never buy electronics or cooking pans from DG

Is air fry the same as convection oven?
The technology is very similar, yes.
@@kimunicorn so it's just space and container shape then... I have an ambient oven that does a lot of things..I don't need a bucket.
Yes
I appreciate you guvibg and us this information
Thank You🍟
Uhh… I’m cooking anything I want!
Nice video! Going to try this :) new subscriber here! Thank you again for sharing!🥰😁

Sure! Just pile them fishes up in the basket to the fill line and set it to 400f for 23 minutes.
@@13Voodoobilly69 Do i need to flip it half way round?
Salmon, chicken tenders and fries.
get something like XXL Star-Light Airfryer DAFB-1120BL, 2000W, 11l and you have room to fry lots of stuff. for 130 dollars. i use it a lot.
Air fried turkey burgers are my quick life hack. On a tortilla:)
LOL on the MST3K blurp!!!
Lasagna in an air fryer is good. It took twice as long though, so that is something to know for next time.
Well - I am not a cook and like to thank you for the info-clip even though (except using the metal rings) I didn't learn anything I am not used too already anyway - take care!

Frying and seed oils is not a good idea frying in coconut oil is an excellent idea
Air fryer are starting to be the new way to fry food.and better for your health too.
My steaks and burgers taste wonderful I the air fryer..and Brussels sprouts, French fries..so I don't agree with little of what you say
WTF They said single layer of fries, but then showed a f ton of fries. They looked like they were overflowing from the oven.
1:27 😂😂😂
Well thus has been shot down un flames by the Hundreds of more recent videos
Tried steak in mine didn't like burgers are no go too
Pizza...everything else is dehydrated or baked. ..I know 3 buttons.
Hi :D
Crispy crispy crispy. Some people like SOFT food.
