Moderators Zico Posted October 5, 2023 Moderators Share Posted October 5, 2023 this is the one we got it's takes up too much space and we didn't really think through where we could put it, but we love it the feelings it gives me when using it I can only imagine this is what it was like in the 1980s when microwaves first came on the scene and folk were like "it can do what? fuck me, this is life changing" only thing i'll say mine has settings for air fry, max crisp, roast, bake, reheat, dehydrate and prove i know now, that I will only ever use it for air fry instead of the oven i don't even know what "prove"" means i now know how to air fry, i won't need the instruction booklet again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 5, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2023 Bake- jacket spuds, cakes etc. Like a little oven. Air fry for use with a little oil and hot air to give crispy grub fried type food. Grill is just that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought the 9 in 1 after reviews on here and it is great, bbq chicken is an absolute game changer, but not being able to do something else at the same time is a pain. Putting the oven or hob on too seems a bit self defeating, particularly given the size of it. For great chips - soak em for 20 minutes first. Pat dry, air fry for about 20 minutes. Shaking every 5. Thank me later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 5, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2023 Chips done in a fraction of that time in a deep fat frier. No buggering about beforehand neither. Switch machine on, peel spuds, wash and cut up. Straight into hot fat. Done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was given one by my sister who lost patience with it because she seemed to think it was capable of going doing the fucking shopping as well.

Load of bollocks that. A chip cooked at high temp in a deep fat frier seals, and doesn't absorb shit loads of grease. Shake it off the outside once cooked and you're sorted. If you're worried about calories, don't eat them at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use it for bacon, sausage, burgers. Chops. Onion bahjis etc. If you like it get a proper all singing one, if you think its ok but too much faff you not lost owt. I like that thinking😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter superjohnmcginlay Posted October 5, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2023 I’ve got one of them 11 in one smart lid thing because I wanted a new slow cooker too, feel like I’m missing out though not having a dual one. Buffalo chicken wings are superb done in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switch machine on, peel spuds, wash and cut up. Straight into hot fat. Done. Deep fat fryer set at 140° drop hand-cut chips in for 10 minutes. Lift basket out and raise temp to 190°. When temperature is reached put basket back down for 2.5 minutes. perfecto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Winchester White Posted October 6, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 6, 2023 You aren't going to get proper chips in an air fryer compared to a deep fat fryer. The point is, you can get close to decent chips with a lot less oil and faff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 6, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 6, 2023 Lot less oil yes, but hiw is it less faff? Same spud preparation, and quicker in a deep fat fryer. If you're making chips at home, may as we make them the best quality you can.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted October 6, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted October 6, 2023 I don't have a deep fat fryer so I feel its one less Appliance on the worktop that needs cleaning. And they do stink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
