Regarding getting food out of the air fryer and the grill falling out, there's a simple technique using a fork, just slide the fork's teeth in one of the outer holes of the grill and lift it using the fork as a lever. It's super easy, only use a single fork so no extra dirty dishes, and prevent pouring out the oils and fats at the same time.

[@inge6280]

What I recently tried out is frying potatoes, used to always preboil those, not necessary. I cut them into sort of bite sized pieces, 1 tbsp oil, coat the pieces, 10 mins on 200C, shake and check, few more minutes if necessary. Season before or after frying

[@mrbarrylewis]

Sounds good!

[@vanvleesenbloed09]

Is it proper crispy?

I love doing this, you basically end up with little roasted potatoes! I will shake a little garlic powder and rosemary on them after the oil.

I put potatoes on blast in the microwave for 3 minutes, then air fry for 5, split them, empty the carcass, mix with mayonnaise, diced chervil, salt, pepper, refill the potatoes and air fry for another five minutes. Last minute add shredded cheese, beautiful double baked potatoes. The misses adores them.

I just done honey roasted parsnips with carrots last night, 200C, ~20 minutes Make sure to make them small bites so they cook through and get all soft, it was so goooood If you have a silicone tray insert, I suggest that, put your pasnips and carrots in, get a spatula and some oil, mix them around. Salt and pepper then drizzle some honey on it, throw it into the air fryer, every now and again shuffle them about to mix more of that honey over them and yea. Eventually they'll brown up and become soft, it's genuinely so nice

[@uutdiegodzilla3821]

When I was a kid, we sometimes had a bonfire in my grandmas garden. To bake our potatoes, huge, thick nails were driven through the middle of the them, then they were wrapped in tin foil and thrown into the fire. The nails acted as heat conductors and the potatoes were cooked through faster and more evenly. Of course you can also use a normal iron skewer, too!

[@epowell4211]

I think long ago, they actually sold potato nails. Haven't thought of them in decades lol

Growing up, dad would frequently sauté onions until brown and crispy, and I would literally eat them until I started feeling ill from the frying oil. That's not a grilled cheese, that's a grilled crouton lol. Nothing beats my vintage 70's sandwich maker for a grilled cheese, even makes a great grilled reuben. My potato preference is baby Dutch Yellow potatoes, oven baked at 425 F, on a sheet pan greased with coconut oil, and sprinkled liberally with spices about halfway through cooking. Feeling fancy? Smash them when they're done, sprinkle with parmesan, heat to melt cheese, flip, and cook until crispy. Do both sides, may work with other cheeses, IDK. I enjoyed this. I always appreciate when people teach cooking methods versus recipes. This video teaches how to cook vs. how to make a specific dish, empowering watchers to make their own creations.

[@crazydaave5394]

I basically only use the air fryer to cook now, its just so easy.

[@johncrwarner]

I do twice cooked potatoes once steamed (or more often microwaved) let it cool and then crisp it up in my air-fryer often with other things! As a retired couple living alone I use the air-fryer more than the main oven as it is quick to heat up and quicker to cook with.

[@AndyAppletree]

Hi Barry, great video. I always put my jacket potatoes in the oven with a metal kebab skewer through the middle of them so the middle of the potato is always cooked even if they are big spuds. Yum.

[@KayakingVince]

Microwave the baked potato for 5 minutes then air fry it for about 10 to 15 minutes if you want to save time. Roast small onions or shallots whole in their skin for the sweetest taste. Make it easier to remove the skin by chopping the top and root off before roasting.

I did a Thai cooking course a few years ago. The teacher taught us to top and tail peppers, you can then pop the stalk out of the top. Then you cut around the white membrane bits in the middle so that all of the seeds drop out with the core. You can then chop the pepper (and the top and tail) into strips - zero waste!!

[@angeliquejacobs3616]

That's how we learned to do it in the hotel school aswell.

[@maxineb9598]

For those of us who like things uniform, this is the ideal way to cut up peppers.

[@Kakascrot]

You can put a little bit of water in the bottom of the air fryer for baked potatoes, imo it makes it softer in the middle and once the water evaporates hit it with some butter and seasoning then the skin starts to crisp

[@mrbarrylewis]

Barry, you have to try baked (air fried) camembert! Get a baking camembert, cut a 1-2 cm grid into the top, drizzle some honey, sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary (use fresh if you have it but dried works too). Air fry for 12 minutes at 180°C, serve with sourdough bread, YUM.

[@Hudson316]

If you have an appropriate sized ramekin or something like that to put it in, even better (we have a dip brand that comes in a ceramic pot about the right size) just so you’re not having to deal with a semi-liquid Camembert trying to escape through the grill

@@Hudson316 That's a good idea if your baking camembert comes only wrapped in paper. Here it usually comes in a thin wooden tray - you're supposed to unwrap the cheese and put it back in the tray for baking and serving. Occasionally, usually around xmas, it comes in a ceramic ramekin - that's what I bought about a decade ago and have been using ever since.

I got a refurbished Philips Air Fryer what 6 or 7? years ago. Use it several times a day. At that time air fryers were mostly used in Europe and Asia so I believe the first company to offer one in the US. At least at the time I purchased it no other company offered them. I can’t believe it is still going. 🤞

[@sussudioharvey9458]

Also you really want a basket that has a lot of perforations on the bottom so to assist cooking. One thing I like about my Philips is the mesh bottom.

Maybe that Air Fryer was made by Alfa Romeo, which is why it depreciates that fast?

[@Matt19matt19]

If you don't want to play about with air fryers and just want a really good one you'll have for years. The ninja Flexi drawer is brilliant. Instead of it having two drawers it's got one big one you can divide. It's soo good I don't use my oven any more. Having one massive drawer makes the difference compared to these ones with small drawers. I have a big metal pan I put in the drawer and when heated up you can actually fry stuff in it yet keep the drawer clean too. Plus it goes to 240c rather than the cheaper ones that only go to 200

[@Margar02]

Oooh, that's like pizza baking temp on the high end! Ever try baking pizza from scratch in it?

[@loveyourselfplease6842]

Hi Barry can I suggest baking potato nails rather than a fork for baked potatoes. They'd food grade & more evenly conduct heat end to end all the way through rather than the heat getting concentrated in one spot with a fork. It does shave off a small amount of time & allows the center to cook beautiful & fluffy without having to cook them so long the skin gets leathery. This is especially helpful for large baking potatoes like russets

[@nigelstockley7011]

Perfect crispy baked potato..... 8 minutes in the microwave, then 14 minutes at 200 degree air fry. 22 mins total.... very crispy works every time.

[@GregB314]

re Baked Potatoes. I always give them 5 minutes in the microwave before wrapping in foil and going into the oven. I think this would work for the air fryer too and further reduce the cooking time. I am going to try it. This video is excellent.

For myself, an air fryer will probably never take my InstantPot's place when it comes to boiled eggs XD But, then again, I've got the time dialed in perfectly for soft, medium, and hard-boiled eggs with that. Honestly, whether you're working with an InstantPot, an air fryer, or even your own hob, it is all about learning the way of cooking that works. Every piece of equipment is going to work differently, even within a group (like air fryers, hobs, etc.), and you've simply got to learn the one you've got.

[@Skootavision]

I’m so please you didn’t microwave the potatoes first. It seems to be a standard tip/hack, but I did some A-B comparisons because like you I love the sweetness a proper slow baked potatoes. Microwaving first just gets moisture out and makes them worse. The way you did them (I do them a bit lower and slower) gives you a lovely skin, which when it’s really good is the best part.

[@SingerBabyJay]

Delicious 😋 Also I'm so glad you did not get hurt from that pan dropping out so much 🙏

[@bradasstv]

I was an early adopter. We are on our 3rd air fryer at this point, so I know quite a bit about them. Got a nice Ninja dual one this time around and it's been the best one. Only downside is there are 2 baskets, so you can't cook like a whole chicken, but Cornish game hens fit great 👍 I only do my bacon in there. Some things like reheating pizza slices you want to do it at a lower temp for a bit longer and get the cheese melts and not brown and crispy. Chicken breast, pork chops work great but I personally don't do anything like steak because I like it seared, but you can use it to finish the steak off, if it's thick, instead of heating up your oven. Can do quite a bit. Fries are okay in there, but you have to add some oil. I keep a bottle of olive oil in a sprayer for that. People say you can just throw in frozen fries but you need some oil. Without oil they usually end up pretty dry. Last one I use all the time is for baked potatoes. You can cook the whole thing in there but can take 45 mins to an hour or what I do now, start it in the microwave and then use the air fryer to finish the outside and make it crispy 👍😁

[@RijackiTorment]

We love our Cosori 5.8 qt Air Fryer. It is absolutely fabulous for chicken breasts (great to use chopped for salad), as you noted, but also a full roast chicken, too. Grilled cheese sandwiches with an addition of deli meat is as wonderful as plain grilled cheese, everything gets hot and lovely. An open sandwich with a thicker bread roll is also fab from the air fryer, just close it up after cooking to have the crunchy fluffy roll with melty hot inside. We do potato wedges and yam fries. For the frozen tater tots, the air fryer gets a much more wonderful crispness with fluffy inside better than the oven and faster. We like the air fryer for re-heating left-over pizza so much more than the microwave. I love my bagels from the air fryer, 380F for 3 mins for the perfect outside toasting with inside chewy fluffy. We finally got our air fryer last November and use it at least once a day. We both wonder why we didn't get it sooner. It has replaced a toaster oven and conventional toaster and we've considered getting a second for the times when you want to cook more than one thing, like for a bigger dinner where you want to have more than one oven going.

[@thecraftylarder6943]

The air fryer really needs the rack in it to help the air circulate around the food or it will cook unevenly… like with your onions. Also, don’t use frylite on anything non-stick. It contains lecithin which sticks to the non stick coating, causing you to have to clean harder and wear away the non stick.

For me no methods beats the pressure cooker when it comes to cooking eggs. Same method as here, just with a little bit of water. The difference is that the eggs practically jump out of the shell every single time. It's like magic. And as for the air frier, it can make beans taste like chips. Just season them with garlic salt, air fry, done, healthy and delicious.

I put an onion in the air fryer whole with all the skin on like when you get it from the shop,blast it for 20mins on 200c and it goes soft and sweet.

For a long time, as the price of Chanel increased, I no longer thought I could afford it. I think I'll be happy that I have the kislux as my travel bag that I don't have to take care of. By the way, I'm sure no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the comparison.

Holy heck Barry! I’m screaming at the tv over you dropping the opened egg back into the water 😱 poor Mrs B

15:06 this is almost my favorite way to eat grilled cheese, I like to put only bread, butter and cheese, no other bread on top, the cheese gets crispy and melted

I love your character, you're funny and entertaining.

I've done 'Hard Boiled' eggs LOTS of times in my air fryer... Not sure if I have it set too high (200F, so... 95C?) or I do it too long, but they seem to always come out with singed/burnt edges, where the air pocket is, and rubbery white. The IRONIC thing is I'm making myself and air fried baked potato tomorrow!!!

The absolute best way to make any kind of egg in-shell is sous vide. There's a chart out there on the internet showing the specific temperatures you can set the machine to, and the associated time for safety, to get a truly baffling range of textures and doneness for the eggs.

[@Lee_Essex]

The third time that tray fell out I was waiting for it to happen as you were tipping the eggs. cracked me up, excuse the pun.

For you Bakers, use a big framing nail coated in oil, sticking out about 1/2" sorry I'm American, 12.7 mm for the rest of the World.. lol works better than a fork. goes almost all the way through, cuts bake time by about 1/3rd. American size = 3-1/2-inch Metric = 88.9 mm

I love doing a fajita mix in mine. I usually get my chicken, peppers, red & white onion, mushrooms and baby corn, marinated for about 2 hours, but then not in a wrap, but served with some lemon & coriander cous cous and mixed leaf salad......its amazing. I've also done it with beef & lamb ( kebab seasoning) 👍

[@DawnShipley1977]

The easiest way i have bn taught to get the pefect hard egg is to put your eggs in cold water and bring it to a boil, remove from the heat, put a lid on the pan and let them sit for 10 minutes and then cool them off...no gray ring around the yolk.

Cosori TurboBlaze Air Fryer is great, I love mine !

[@sambomouse]

did you notice, when cooking a lot of things one after the other, the times need slightly reducing because of how hot the airfry already is? or has it completely cooled down inbetween each recipe? I also do toasties, but use a bit of parchment/greaseproof paper to stop it sticking and make it easy to handle

[@romeolives7062]

Barry, are you looking for an air fryer? Everything kind of thing Look into the ninja foodie I just made hard boil eggs in 6 minutes. I pressure cooking them and perfect eggs.Shelves came right off. It has like, yeah, all kind of features

[@Lanka0Kera]

Variation of the baked potato with fork I've heard of here is "naulaperuna"; aka nailpotato, which is potato baked with ~6 inch nail in it. Pretty much same idea; bash some metal inside the potato to transfer heat faster. Frankly I'm not too eager to try them out though, modern nails are finished with zinc (the grey coat that kinda flakes off if you scratch the nail), which while not bad as lead still isn't something you should eat... guess the "recipe" comes from 60s when nails were proper all-iron nails.

[@Barot8]

I give you baked potatoes! You have to try them as well as using the air fryer for french fries. Also if you use air fryer paper, you have to put the food on top of the paper other wise it will be sucked up into the hot fan element and cause a fire.

thanks for the video, I like me some airfryer video. One thing that I'd really like to see though are recipes that are very much 'set and forget' meaning you don't need to monitor it or adjust it once you've begun the process. This would help me with my ADHD brain where I dislike cooking because it involves standing around doing nothing for 10mins-2hrs just watching stuff when I could be doing something more interesting. Can't tell you how many days I simply don't eat because I can't be bothered to cook.
