Chips Pal, that made my mouth water. The troublesome cleaning aspect is the heating elements when crumbs fall onto them, bit tricky to clean. As i'm sure you've found out, the magnetic trays work when you open the door and the tray pops out a bit via magnetic pull for easy access. Fantastic new toy though and energy efficient too compared to a main oven👍

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Good tip!

[@cliffordmorris6091]

Is it a chip diet? It must be a see food diet. Forget diet cut back on salt or use low salt .

[@POPPYTHERED]

You can’t beat chip pan ones 💪🏻💥

[@laydeep1740]

You will enjoy this addition, had mine coming up to 4 years and use it every single day. I got the black version which seems easier to clean Steam does come from the door, as I recall that’s why it shouldn’t really be under a cabinet, easy enough to wipe away any drips Not much you can’t cook in it, only use my main oven for the bigger joints now. Roasting bags can help a lot avoiding the splashes if your roasting chicken for example Usually do bacon on a tray Cooked beef in it today, it roasts up to 2 hours The thing I like the most you can set the time and walk away, no more forgetting I had something in the oven I’m sure you will enjoy it, lots to experiment with. Best kitchen appliance I ever bought, can cook anything you can fit in. Enjoy x

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thank you for your comment 🙏

[@mohammedvachhiat4233]

Nothing beats a good deep fry for chips 😆

[@oyleyhands1332]

That salt and pepper seasoning I sent you works well with chips in my Sage combi oven with an air fryer function. They do take a bit of getting used to though.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers pal

[@cooperization]

Love how the air fryers gone but the beers still there--priorities Gareth--spot-on--lol.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Haha absolutely

[@vobchopper]

Quick tip that works very well for roast spuds especially, boil the spuds for about 10 mins with the skins on, leave to coolin the water, just be careful that they don't mush, the skins will just slipof and the spuds won't absorb loads of water so you get a much fluffier spud

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers pal

[@darrengiles5456]

Remind me of my days as a kid when mum would make them. Look the same.. lovely chips 🍟

[@steve37uk]

we have had one for a few years but my model does not have the air fryer option but all the others. we use it all the time and love it

[@paulbeesley5743]

Looks smart on the side too. I have the Sage Coffee machine and love it. Can't beat chips made at home. 👍👍

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

[@brianhiggins3090]

Nice bit of kit that Gareth chips looked really good too.👍

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers Brian yes, makes my cooking look good lol

[@stephenbutler463]

now you want one that has got a rotisserie, best thing ever

[@simongoodwin5253]

I've got the SAGE multi oven previous to this model. They seem to have made a few changes since I bought mine. Love it!

[@simongoodwin5253]

It's "Lashings" of salt btw...."slashing" means something totally different LOL!

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Great to hear!

[@LivingInTheShade]

I really want some home made chips now but, I have some veggies to use up, I'm making a veg curry tonight. Really loving this sage series, can't wait for more content on it, I might have to purchase it.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Hope you enjoy

[@keithshwalbe6981]

They look like very well thought cookers Gareth. I'd certainly love one myself. Thank you very much for reviewing it Gareth. You're a star .

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

You're welcome

[@christinemurray9407]

Home made chips yummy, great idea to reuse the vinegar.

[@tonysabres]

These are amazing, I had one, used it all the time for about 4 years & it eventually died, bought another one again straight away - never use my proper AEG (except for the hobs) - brilliant & nice vid (might have to try using some of your cooking tips)

[@jamesbradshaw4675]

Another great review looks good that . And those chips looks great 👍

[@asquithmainlines699]

I have the Same Smart oven only mine is branded Breville. I have had it a year now and I have not used my big oven since. It will bake three loaves of bread, cook a large pizza, roast a whole chicken or pork/beef roast. It does a great job good air frying. I use it pretty much daily.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Good to know!

[@rickbear7249]

Yes, the Sage is the licensed Breville for the UK market. Useful to know, as you can Google for Breville to find ideas and info for the Sage oven.

[@sandradent65]

Looks good Gareth and also lovely chips

[@RivieraKid69]

Love it, exactly what I was looking for.

[@brianherring6393]

That will come in handy when you are testing ready meals with a fraction of the heating time of large ovens

[@markcole377]

personally I would always spray of shake on vinegar first before the salt as that way the salt sticks better , but keep up the good work with the vids m8 i got a ninja myself after watching you're earlier vids. lol

[@violetlilly9644]

Love the look of the Sage, can’t wait to see more cooking in it! 😋😀

[@hillarygroundwell2807]

Oh I wish I had made chips now instead of homemade soup! They looked so good.maybe tomorrow. Can't wait to see what else you make in your new gadget

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers

[@crashq8784]

When my underbench main oven cashed in its chips I replaced it with a new one that included an air fryer function. The oven works wonderfully but I can't bring myself to get that lovely air fryer basket/tray dirty so I haven't used it (18 months later). I might try it out tomorrow but I know I'll look in the cupboard and see that pretty, shiny basket and end up grilling them on the good old baking sheet. A little bicarb in the cooking water can help with the crispiness of the end product by the way - not too much, just a level teaspoon helps.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers pal

If you're behind the times then I must still be stuck in the past. I have none of these fancy things lol I treated myself to a tassimo hot drinks machine a few years back. Not used it in yonks!. I'm content using a toaster, oven & microwave 😂 I do enjoy watching you with all this modern technology though 👌🏼

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Haha cheers Vamp

[@firsteerr]

i have a similar oven /air fryer and use a cylinder they supplied on the rotisserie for a good (not as good as deep fried) chip that gets tumbled and it seems to be better then the tray mthod

[@Early100]

If all these new super duper gadgets keep being invented we’ll all need another kitchen dedicated especially for all of them, id love a new house with a traditional kitchen and a gadgetised kitchen 😂

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

I totally agree!

[@johndavis7944]

Out with the old and in with the new.

[@arthurdaly3497]

Air Fryers are just rebranded convection ovens which are smaller. If you want to cook a small amount of food they are useful because they use less energy because they are not heating a big space up. Once you scale an air fryer up to the same size as a normal convection over, its simply a convection oven, same as what most people already have

[@stevek4620]

I have this oven and you should turn the tray around half way through cooking for the chips to cook evenly and you are right they always need a few minutes more

[@susanmcmaster7894]

Looks a nice cooker ...im old school and use an old fashioned potato peeler 😀

[@stephenheyes4324]

You can't beat home made chips one of life's luxuries

[@rogerhudson2814]

Not a kitchen device for a family but for singles or a couple it is the only oven you really need.

[@rickbear7249]

I've hosted Christmas dinner parties for 4, even 6, with the Sage oven + a microwave. It takes a bit of planning, but the top acting as a plate warmer helps enormously.

[@mattwuk]

I love how it specifically mentions crumpets 😁😄

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Haha yes thought that was a little different 😄

[@sonarand]

had a Delonghi similar for years, use every day.

[@rosemarygriffin2184]

Soak your chips before cooking in cold water for about an hour before cooking, it takes all the starch out of the potatoes, so you get crispy chips on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thanks for the tip!

[@rosemarygriffin2184]

@@BaldFoodieGuy your welcome 🤗

[@lindalucia31]

Always done that it's a great tip.

[@RS-ln3ns]

IF YOU SOAK YOUR CHIPS OVERNIGHT, IN COLD WATER, BEFORE FRYING THEM, YOU WILL GET EVEN BETTER RESULTS.

[@davidglenn6219]

A great video mate. I may look into getting one of those gadgets.

[@johndavis7944]

Move over Ninja. There's a New Gun in town. 'Sage' Gareth your rangehood fan sounds like the engine room of a Harbour Tug! Mine sounds like the 9:15 am express to Bristol. Good on you for reading the instruction manual. A wealth of information isn't it! Internal Cleaning. Is best done as soon as it's cool enough to do so using grease cutting wipes and then a damp cloth wipe over. Mine too has the preheat function, so anything you have to cook further is subject to a quick preheat. Chips were done nicely 👍 Next step, bake something like cheese and bacon muffins. Thanks for the new toy demo. Cheers Gareth 👍😀🤤

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

You're welcome John thank you.

[@jacquelinesherlock2274]

When on the toast setting, the number 4 at the bottom is the number of slices of bread. You can change that and it heats up the right amount for however many slices you're doing 🙂

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Good to know thank you

[@mikewright447]

also when i did chips in my "off brand" air fryer i just washed them left the skin and cut them and soaked them for a few hours in cold water (probs the same result as par boiling them to get the starch out ?) , patted them dry then drizzled a teaspoon of oil on them and gave them a mix and fry them for 10 mins shake and then another 10 mins at 180c , times may alter for fryer types.

[@johndavis7944]

Can't cook or just don't want to?. Everyone can cook! Do you know that the skill level needed to drive a car is the same skill level needed to be a successful cook. Have a think about it 🤔 We all make have to learn a skill. Gareth doesn't boast about being a cook, but he can and he does because he wants to.

[@TheGuardsShop]

@@johndavis7944 - When I say I can't cook, I'll have you know that I once caused a family 'incident' with some 'medium rare' chicken fillet kebabs, I tried to make a few years ago - I am still reminded about it to this day. Since then, I stick with toast. My driving is good though, just need to get a licence and I will be sorted.

[@brewsterkits]

It also makes a good plate warmer on top,looks nice and shiny 🤩I usually leave one of the trays in the bottom over the elements, it's easier to clean because stuff drips from the wire tray, I like watching, I call mine TV oven 😆

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Good idea for the plate warmer

[@nickjamesart7317]

the problem with leaving a tray in the bottom is it defeats the air fryer functionality as the bottom elements are obscured, this is not necessary for chips but yeah, if food is gonna drip, use the tray

A tip for you, when oiling up chips or frozen chips in a big bowl or pot for the gas oven, use crisp n dry, it's not spam but it is rape seed oil and the chips are beautiful, you have to try it and taste them, even with cheap frozen chips covered in the cnd oil and oven cooked are beautiful.

[@SamM-oh2cx]

Beautiful smart cooker! I have a a Sage kettle and toaster and they are brilliant! I always use Maris Piper, peel and cut them then soak them in cold water for 30 mins. I empty the water, rinse the chips and leave to sit for another 30 mins at room temp. Swop the water again rinse and sit again for 30 mins! The more starch you get out, the better the dip will be! When you are ready to use them, empty the prepared chips out onto a clean tea towel and dry they chips! I have a salad spinner and that works great to dry the chips! I don’t oil the chips before cooking. I preheat the air fryer but I set the temperature at 180. I cook them at a lower temp for a longer time and the chips come out perfectly cooked and dangerously addictive! Can’t wait to see what magic you pull out of your new smart cooker! Enjoy!

Hi Gareth from Spain. Strikes me as an awful lot of faff for a six penn'orth. When I was very much younger, like 65 years ago, first thing in the morning, I used to have to peel a half hundredweight bag of spuds, by hand, chip them, blanch them and put them down ready for later. Then peel a quarter of onions, slice them and put them in a huge sink of white vinegar, then it was gut and fillet a half-bushel of herring, put half down to pickle and the rest leave ready for frying. Those were the days - didn't do my courting any favours, I always smelled of fish!
