543. AIR FRYER ON A NARROWBOAT - HYSAPIENTA 24L

[@markcroson]

U know your getting old when ur excited about a air fryer, looks like a great idea

[@mrsmiggins6435]

I've got exact model and it's fantastic in my opinion, ideal for boating, caravan and small home. I watch Rik at Backyard Chef who used to use it all the time. I'd highly recommend it especially if you can get a good price deal and with black Friday coming up great. I managed to get mine at £138 on Amazon a few months ago, I have seen it cheaper.

[@ItsMeJenBB]

You're killin me with scraping that pan with the metal spoon! LOL But seriously, I love that air fryer! They are SO much quicker than the big oven. I just got one and its brilliant. I am in FL so turning the big oven on is too hot.

[@nicky3989]

I had a fit watching him do that 😅

[@silverhairinabigfootsilver6766]

Glad you did not get a drawer model. We got one, and I added shelves and pans to make it something that cooked a meal, but hubby, the air fryer user, said that it did not cook evenly enough in layers. We got an oven which is better, but I think we need to look further, after watching this video, toward something that fills the vintage propane oven spot in our camper.

I have just ordered the same , should have been here yesterday but item delivered but not here , i had a little basket one but it went pop thats why i brought a new one , i've found if its 15 mins cook time do for 10 and check nearly done to incinerated is very quick , they are great when you get used to them

[@robertwoods1887]

Bought same oven just before christmas pretty good no real issues just need to keep on top of cleaning it

[@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt]

That’s good to know I cleaned mine after using it and it was quite easy to wipe down. I’ll keep on top of it Thanks

[@westaussiejeff1547]

Suggest you get some silicon spatulas to scape the airfryer metal tray - I imagine it's non stick and a metal spoon will damage quickly... But I love the unit!

[@jameswatters9592]

Yeah listening to that spoon was like somebody scraping their nails down a blackboard

[@TheEmbeddedHobbyist]

Air fryer's are OK but they are power hungry. they use less energy over time but when the heater is on yours is 1.8 kW region. ok if your on land power. We use a Remoska in the caravan as it's much lower power, still bakes but takes longer. so much less instantaneous power demand (400W).

[@Transit_Biker]

Really glad you were able to find a good cooking solution. Appliances these days seem to be all made out of plastic and have none of the real function that you need. It might be worthwhile to make a sturdy sling for this so you can pick it up easily from wherever it is being stored like some luggage.

[@dorothydotson7154]

I have a small drawer type right now but when I need to replace it I plan to get one of the oven type. I think they are called air fryer toaster ovens and are more versatile. I do love my air fryer and use it just about everyday.

[@sarkybugger5009]

That draws the same amount of power as my full size fan oven, James, although I'm sure it will heat up quicker, as it's half the size. It's always a compromise when you're pushed for space. All the best, mate.

[@michellesivyour7808]

You mentioned that your induction hob will be going on your unit. You indicated that it would be positioned at the end of the counter on that bend. There is a potential for someone, a child or adult to walk past and knock a saucepan handle. I may seem interfering but I would never be able to rest without mentioning it. I hope you don't mind.

[@Patricia-ks8rw]

Potatoes go on basket chicken on tray

[@nadogrl]

Handles should never be facing outward.

[@annjarvis9300]

Glad you got one you like very much like ours we live in tiny bungalow so space is at a pinch well done with the first use tc now 👍🤗

[@bruceshaw2402]

My air fryer is the best thing I've bought in years , I cook most things in 15 minutes , and as I have no interest in cooking ( I just want to eat ASAP ) it's great .

[@Narrowboat.and.offgrid.living]

That big battery bank is gonna be a right ball ache to keep charging might as well just use a generator

[@kevinseeley6452]

We have the slightly smaller one, it's brilliant

[@carldixon7509]

It seems to be a bit power-hungry .how is it going to be in the middle of winter. You are going to need a good power supply.

[@surbitonflyer]

Great looking air fryer, I can do everything I ever need with a two plate induction, air fryer and a microwave

[@ifadams2908]

Glad you have one with a glass door, I've been looking at the on line for me x

[@sknight1963]

Might need a good extraction fan to eliminate steam and condensation.

[@Tass...]

air friers are just a rebranding of the old convection ovens that have been around for decades. Clever marketing by someone. If anyone wants a more traditional oven looking air frier you can always just buy a microwave/convection oven combi. the size of a microwave. can be used as a microwave and also is a convection oven (air frier) especially handy if you don't have the room for an air frier but already have allotted space for a microwave.

[@Davidsseekingsolace]

James hi what is your plan for your current boat I may be interested if you are going to sell it . David

[@johnchristmas310]

Do you need your battery and inverter set up first James. Seems a bit premature ?

[@johnaston6440]

To much power for me

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid on channel nice air frier keep up the good vid and cranking it thanks four you cool vlogs

[@ianrichards8302]

Whats the difference between and air fryer with a fold down door and a mini fan oven?

[@jonathanmorgan1882]

Several years of a fashion trend I'd guess.

[@rubberdc]

Could you build an upright unit for the air fryer ( similar to a conventional upright oven unit )

[@Acapulc941]

I agree with you in not liking the plastic, drawer- style air fryers. In fact I don't have one. So I look forward to seeing how you use this, which does look good. Is it as loud as it seems?

[@johnarnell4241]

There's a great KZbin channel called backyard chef who uses one to cook great traditional British and global grub

[@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt]

I watch him He’s quality !!!

[@lesleym6952]

That’s a great channel - love watching him. Look forward to seeing what you cook up using this 😃 Just a suggestion, I have a glass hob cover that I put at the back of my air fryer as they do get very hot and can cause damage to whatever is behind them ☺️

[@davidsedlickas8222]

Ninja 10 in 1 is the Rolls Royce.

[@joemelton7023]

Last week got IG. Following

[@sknight1963]

Let me recommend that you cook bacon in the air fryer. You will not be sorry. Convect bake 200c for about 15-20 min

[@williamburgess4732]

Looks good, time to get a meal.

[@ACarpist]

That's one thirsty noisy jet aircraft.

[@dennis6442]

already sold out on amazon !!

[@davidcook380]

James Please DON'T become a chef mate LOL

[@AnnMcWilliams-p5x]

I’d have done carrots and parsnips in with the potatoes

[@Sophie-vanTg4u]

Hi James, what is the dimensions of the oven so i can see where i can fit it on the worktop, thank you

[@DogheadOriginal]

Do you want some non stick with your potatoes? 😅

[@_Tiamat_.]

💜💙💚

[@dexterfitben]

You know its a Chinese brand when it sounds vaguely European but no one's heard of it. Nothing wrong with all that if it does what it says on its stainless steel tin.

[@philroberts7238]

Sapientia means wisdom in Latin, doesn't it? It's been a long while since I was required to know such things. (I may even be radical and look it up, but that feels like cheating somehow.)

[@dircia7754]

Did you season the chicken and potatoes?

[@normmcrae1140]

In reality - an "Air Fryer" is just a Marketing name for a Convection Oven..... It's an oven with a fan in it to circulate the hot air. The drippings from the chicken should make those spuds taste AWESOME!

[@EQINOX187]

Air Fryer is not just a marketing name for a convection oven the two types do not remotely operate in the same way and the only similarity is that they have a heating element and fan. A Convection oven is a sealed unit and using the fan it calculates the same air over and over around the food and it does not vent hot air out, an air fryer works differently in that the fan is constantly pulling in fresh cold air from outside the oven blowing it over the heating element instantly bringing that air up to temp then pushing it over the food and then right out the back of the air fryer into the room

[@claire4486]

Why didn't you rotisserie your chicken?

[@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt]

I’ll do that next time

[@TelstarFirst]

It wouldn't have fitted the roasties in.

[@johnaston6440]

No good for me and I have a very good battery bank. It will leave me in the dark at night.

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌❤️🇨🇦

[@mandycoleman1394]

Hell no James ! Lol you’re a cooking channel too !! lol late to the show but am on my jollies ! Nice oven x

[@DogheadOriginal]

NASA couldn’t power that air fryer.

[@wonderingworld119]

"whats that, two mangoes, one kiwi, oh god no thank you"

[@brianbrian760]

James is turning into A proper little housewife..😅😅😅😅 Good work James

[@jimfoster9980]

Your videos are really good to watch usually with our young children but we are starting to only watch them later on in the evening as the your choice of words is such that we do not like the children to hear its a shame as they like to watch you building your narrowboat. We notice you do not swear in front of your children which is correct.

[@arthurraymond6239]

Whatever you decide James😀I is fine with me …..like a cat🤔you always seem to land on your feet 😀😂
