Air Fryer

I love my air fryer and today I was down at Coles early and they had marked down some crumbed chicken Coles brand from $6 to $3 ... four in a pack.  Best before today was the use by date. Knowing they just don't go "off" just like that I grabbed a packet and cooked them two at a time in my air fryer for 25 minutes.

Were they lovely? Wish I had grabbed another packet now. Came out perfectly cooked and crunchy brown and very moist inside.

Ate one between us (already had eaten but they looked so good) and put the rest in fridge and will eat cold tomorrow (or could heat up if can be bothered).

My fryer is one I bought from Kogan and only paid about $65 or so for it. Had for two years or so now.

Trouble is I have no more room to store another utensil

 

You could find a bench height small table at a reasonable price or I bet there is something you have in your home, as you will be SO SO happy with an Air Fryer Jane. If I were you I would buy one with the drawer lifts out, rather than a top loader one. As I have said a Wok and an AirFryer are used over and over for us. Be brave...Bite the Bullet...Get a draw style AirFryer tomorrow P.B. 

Just 30cm table top somewhere jimminies that's just 12 inches  you have that Jane :)

EBay have them (limited stock left) just $75.

 

 

Phyl my kitchen and family room are chockers--cupboards are full and I have the microwave on top of the small 2nd freezer and a small table with a round roaster on it and the other high cupboards are too high for me and they have things I don't use often.   I will have to try and look at them and maybe get rid of something else Phyl

I have a turbo oven

17L Convection Oven - White   It is some 20 years old ... and will not die

... I keep it out onmy back patio. It is good as in the hot weather I can still cook roasts etc

without heating up my house.

Have cooked frozen potato hash browns          Related image

in  it it which came out quite nice.

Cannot help but wonder what is the difference between a Turbo Oven and Air Fryer ??

Thats what I have Suze -- the one I said was on the little table -- I couldn't think of the name of it -- hardly use it,  I don't have an outside covered space here

It certainly cooks a lot faster than the indoor convection oven.

I haven't used it that much and maybe I had it up too high but I thought dried stuff out a bit -- I like to do slow cooked meat WHEN I do cook meat

I marinade my meats before cooking .. it keeps the meats moist.

 

 

Ihave one of those as well Suze...mine has hardly been used...but I use from time to time to cook a roast pork.

I have marinated  steaks for tonight and will cook in my air fryer.

A FOOD writer has wowed Twitter with her unusual — and expensive — approach to achieving perfectly crispy skin on a roast chicken.

Helen Rosner, a food writer for the New Yorker, uploaded a photo of herself using a $400 Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer to blow-dry a whole chicken.

“Happy snow day, I am using an astonishingly expensive hair dryer to remove all moisture from a chicken to maximise skin crispiness when I roast it,” Rosner writes in the post, which has earned over 1,600 likes and 100 comments.

Rosner went on to share the recipe for her roasted chicken, but fans were most interested in the first stage of her process — the hair dryer.

“For crisp skin, whether you’re cooking a chicken or a duck or a fish, you want there to be as little water moisture as possible, which is sped up by a fan. And that’s all a hair-dryer really is — a handheld fan that you can pretty easily bring into the kitchen,” she said to Allure, likening the process to Food Network star Alton Brown using a box fan to make beef jerky.

Definitely not sharing my hair dryer with a strange chick Related image

That chick might be a nice avatar for you Radish ;)

Actually this hint would probably be good for drying out the skin of roast pork to give better crackling.....giving up Avatars for a while Suze :)
