@Red Noland Thank you !!! I have been wanting a Breville Toaster Oven SO BADLY. My friend LOVES hers, and hasn't used her oven since. I am wheelchair disabled and it's difficult reaching the counters as it is. Great ! I will focus my limited funds on the toaster oven. Sincerely, MUCH APPRECIATION !!!! 😊

I clean mine after every use, I have the round shallow cake tin with mine which is ideal to cook for one, fish steak fits in great and I can lift that out and just wash that non stick tin, then wash whole fryer couple of times a week. I have not used my traditional cooker over since last Christmas I love it! I find 14 minutes cooks most foods fine, 7 mins each side on 200C setting, and although there are automatic settings for certain foods, I never use them, the great thing is you can check and re start to see how food is going, hard to go wrong really! Cheers from UK 🇬🇧 👍🏻

I bought a cheap Walmart brand air fryer. ($29.00) I use it everyday and haven't had any problems with it. Perfect size for one person. Also I never preheat or use oil. Everything turns out great.

If you are not using oil, then don't attempt to cook a meal for me, thanks.

[@Tcwilliams07]

I've never used cooking spray with my air fryer. If you feel the need to use a spray, I suggest buying a spritzer and just putting your choice of oil in it to lightly spray whatever you're cooking. It doesn't have to be soaked, but helps seasonings stick to some things if you need that.

[@GlobalAdventurer]

Regardless if your model of air fryer has the ability to pause midway through the cycle or not, it's always good to check your food at least half way through if you need to shake/turn it. Even for models that have a bottom burner too! Even cooking in an oven people check on the food that is cooking or baking.

[@rubenrebenz1000]

Had been using a 1st gen air fryer from QVC for 9 years. Just bought a Ninja Foodi FD401 last year. It’s a world of difference. Pressure cooked split pea soup, took 20 minutes instead of 4 1/2 hours in a crockpot. All types of ribs fall off the bone, braised meat is tender, pulled pork shreds easily. Too many things to rave about, time saving is the most important.

As the inventer of the air fryer, i give my blessing to this video. I invented the air fryer by accident. What happened is i farted on a cheese and onion pie and it warmed up. This led me to my "eureka moment" and i thought of warming food up using warm circulating air instead of microwaves. I've never lived the idea of warning food using mild radiation, and thi6s the air fryer was born. I want to take this opportunity to thank the world for purchasing my invention.

[@RobertxJenks]

I bought a Ninja basket type from the start a few years ago and use it a lot when I get home late and it works well for me

[@daytona1212]

We use the double Ninja, and it's super fast compared with the normal electric oven. Cooking times should be taken with a grain of salt, and you have to check the food regulary. And use a thermometer like in this video. Pre-heating? Sometimes maybe, but most of the time we don't and still have great food.

[@whatworkedforme]

sure! the area inside an air fryer is probably less than 20% of a conventional oven so pre heating is just a waste of energy... My problem is getting plates hot for the food (used to use the oven along with the food i was cooking before) so I just stick some plates in the oven on Grill setting for 4 minutes before serving up. I'd like to use the heat from the air fryer but it is not as easy as I thought it would be

I honestly have never added oil to my air fryer, most foods will have natural oils which come out during the cooking process

[@seltaeb9691]

Just keep an eye on things, write down times & next time you'll know how long to do it next time. Small air fryers cut your options for spit roasting & doing kebabs. 12ltrs is best size wise & 2 dials for time & temp is better than all them digital press buttons tho they look cool.

Overcrowding is a big one. And even some of the professional recipes shown are guilty of it. Note the wings. No way they would cook properly. Also, I never preheat and my food comes out perfect every time. You can't screw up chicken. Here's a tip. Take a chicken thigh, coat with seasoned flour and cook 5 minutes each side on high. Then, remove and smear with margarine. Cook another 5 minutes per side. Perfect fried chicken.

Get an oil mister and use olive or avocado oil. 2) No to oven type air fryers, too big a pain to clean, inconsstent results vs a basket. A shake or quick stir vs changing racks. 3) A 3 to 5 minute preheat for some foods -none for others. 4) wipe out, spray Dawn onand let sit, rewipe and rinse. 5) a 5.8 to 6 qt size square is more useful space.

the point of oven or air fryer chips is that you don’t use (as much or any) oil and therefore are healthier. I actually find it funny that your “I went back to” was reverting to the unhealthy method😂

[@honestchris7472]

@@LiterallyAllNamesAreTaken as i said, the chips were dry and not very nice at all, I did not buy the thing for health reasons, I bought it so that it would be cleaner than using a deep fat fryer and not have the trouble of changing and getting rid of the used oil. Nothing else I tried in the air-fryer was very good to eat either, if I would have been contented to eat more healthily without having a good taste from the food, I would have been happy but everything tasted bland in comparison and I like my meals to be tasty. I have a double oven as part of my main oven and that is a bit larger than an air-fryer and probably costs a similar about of money to use, for chips, I use a deep fat fryer again and they taste far better than those from an air-fryer, the makers say that you only need a spoon full of oil but that is a lie because all you get is baked dry chips, not proper chips. If you make sure that a deep fat fryer has reached a very hot temperature, the hot oil quickly forms a skin on the chips and they don`t get at all oily but they still have the real chip quality.

[@TOPDadAlpha]

Best baked potatoe..... Large potato, clean and dry well. Coat potato with any oil (I use olive oil spray). Salt potato well. Use a knife and puncture all over. Set for 25 minutes then rotate potato for another 25 minutes. I know it's a long cook time but the hot air fryer turns the potato with crispy potato skins and soft fluffy inside. Try at least once.....if you like potato skins.

The sound of a lot of oil being added "Spritz, spritz".

[@dathyr1]

None, I would never get one of these as a gift. i will stick with my regular oven for cooking or go out and eat at a restaurant.

[@DENMONKEY]

yes, you can just throw your food in and turn it on.

[@LONDONGUY100]

'Air fryer' is obviously a misnomer. They are actually small turbo ovens.

[@og-greenmachine8623]

BUYING them.

[@twinangels4583]

Which is d best air fryer??

[@KCPryor]

Do not use Pam, it brakes down the nonstick surface.

[@qldkev]

Why don't they ever mention about acrylamide in air fryer videos?

[@randallheard1498]

Here's a tip just use a regular deep fryer that takes oil

[@chrismessy]

I just use my for hashbrown, French fries and nuggets

[@drakewarnock1239]

I pretty much only make frozen food in my air fryer. If I'm doing anything more than just dumping some garbage in there then I may as well just cook it the normal way.

[@tajr.2650]

It’s so much faster for pretty much anything. My fav is eggplant (cut in half) for baba ganoush! Hard boiled eggs are great in there and saves boiling a pot of water. Easy peasy.

[@TriWaZe]

Yep

[@iluv2worship]

@@tajr.2650 how nice! Thank you! I didn’t know you can boil eggs too.

[@lunasmum6869]

@@iluv2worship I would think you would have to pierce the shell or the eggs would explode?

Hi, l use my air fryer every night, I love mine, mine is a Cosori, l use olive oil or coconut oil for it,l have 2 recipe books for mine, l wouldn't choose a different air fryer, l have cheat sheet 2 of them, l go by what the recipe says, or l choose my own, that l have tried, and they work out, l did a bunch tests with my air fryer

[@dlewis9760]

I've had 2 different brands. I use one 6 days a week and I'm not using it just for tater tots. I just use online recipes and if they work out I save them to favorites in the browser Chicken wings: lemon pepper, garlic salt, parsley. 12 min - 360, flip, 12 min -360. If you want extra crispy, up to 6 min - 400. Done. Never tried coconut oil.

How do you clean the top of your air fryer, almost impossible. Please advise

[@debeeriz]

next time you turn it on it will burn off the residue from the last time you used it

[@margaretcurrie4093]

I just soak cloth. In washing liquid, and clean, around the grill.. Not had a problem... 👍

[@iluv2worship]

Lay it down on the back side so you can see the inside. Then just wipe clean with your favorite cleaner.
