Air fryer tips

How many wings can you do at one time? Could you put in a batch that would be good for 6 people?

Depends on the air fryer. I was recently looking at a Ninja vs Instant comparison, and they said that the Ninja is way better at bigger portions.

Just out of interest, am I the only one who never bothers to preheat it? Never found it necessary. Mine will cook frozen chips in 12 minutes without pre-heating. It's not going to cook them in 7 minutes if I pre-heat for 5 minutes first, so what's the point?

Never preheat my ninja 11 in 1

Depends how big your air fryer is and as long as you keep turning them every few minutes ......quite a few.

Last night I made a lasagne. From scratch. The same with the cottage pie the night before. Can an airfryer do them?

I did lasagne tonight made the filling on gas hob then transferred everything to a dish I use for the oven 30 mins in the air fryer at 180, probably could’ve done with 5 mins less as top lasagne sheets were a bit crispy but everything else spot on

So do all the prep and then put it in? Basically a cheap oven then?

A cheaper, faster oven, yes. I can do a roast dinner within an hour including all the prep.

A modern day marvelement of wonder is the Air Fryer. Tonights supper is Colemans chicken Kebab served on Deli Greek flat bread with Garlic sauce and a handful of Home Chips and a bit of salad and tomatoe for colouration: That is all:

Cut into bite size pieces with a full packet of Colemans chicken kebab mixed with 10ml oil and cook for 12 minutes.

Fuck I'm hungry now. I'm going to try this :)

Is anyone air frying their turkey for Xmas?

Guess only crowns would fit.

Did a 6-8 person turkey crown in mine last Christmas. It was stunning. Mine is the 15-1 version with the temp probe included.

Just found out that crumpets are a no go.

Eleccy bill's gone down 20 quid a month because the oven is redundant now.
Rib eye steak, 3 mins either side and a blob of Lurpak on it for the last minute.

Lurpak !!! Have you come into money or something?

He just bought a ninja duo. I out half a chicken in and turned it to roast mode and the default setting was 15 minutes.

I opened it and the **** tried to fly away. It’s on for 15 mins more now.

Any tips for someone who automatically throws instructions away?
