    i use the jml halogen oven to do my steak 15 mins at 200 for extra thick striploin or rib-eye,and my fries and onion rings in the philips airfryer.
    yep do a roast chicken in 90 mins in the halogen oven,lovely and moist.

    have both best of both worlds.

    How would you compare the chips from the Airfryer vs the halogen? Worth the extra investment or just slightly better? I usually only do sweet potato fries in my halogen and they're hard to get crispy because of their water content. I'd be interested in hearing how they do in an airfryer

    only ever done chips in the air frier never tried the halogen oven,as the air frier uses the old cooker ring and a fan to get the food cooked,yes would say its a good investment for a single person.bought duck wraps from meat outlet and threw them in the fridge next day took out and opened up must have been 60+ and cook in deep fat frier-oooops air frier and a squirt of oil 7 minutes later cooked and boy were they worth it .
    the longer you leave it in to cook the more cooked and crispier they become, D I D had an event one evening showing them at work onion rings,chips,cocktail sausages all cooked ,bought one there and then.
    with sausages needs cleaning everytime because of the fat coming out of them or it will be a smokie experience.
    foods cooked so far in the frier.
    chicken drumsticks
    chips
    onion rings
    fish with breadcrumbs
    sausages
    cooking with hot air i find is healthier for me now.

    ps no did not have 60+ in one go,it was 4 goes .

    Every bit as good in my opinion, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside!Yum :)

    To the person who asked if actifry beats halogen over for chips the answer is definitely yes. The tossing motion in the actfry means everything cooks evenly, you dont need to check on them once you put it on, you just come back when it beeps and they're done. I found the hallogen over was not nearly as nice for any sort of potatoes.

    chip variety and make can vary the taste and texture when cooking in the airfryer.

    which unit are you asking about? I have a philips airfryer and it is nowhere near as good as deep fat fired chips. It's the main complaint I see online about them, on the likes of amazon.

    The name "airfryer" is a bit of a con, it's really just a fast fan oven.

    I am extremely pleased with mine all the same.

    Several things.

    Its energy efficient, very energy efficient compared to the way many people use ovens. e.g. my housemate would preheat an oven for ages, and just be cooking a snack in it.

    80% of the time I do not bother preheating the airfryer, since it heats up so quickly anyway. So its a single step when cooking.

    The timer is great, its comparable to a microwave, you can set it and walk away. I would run in during a TV ad break stick something on and its there waiting. When it turns off it cools down quicker than an oven so does not tend to overcook food as much if you forget about it. I have turned it on and headed to the shop for additional stuff and come back, safe in the knowledge that if I get held up it will not burn. I do not like eating overly hot food and it keeps it nicely warm.

    There is no need to standover it, like frying or grilling, you just pop it in and forget about it. It is also very repeatable.

    It is very fast so I can say throw a burger right away, and then go looking for lettuce & buns etc. By the time I have all my onions, bun, cheese etc gathered it is often just finished -again no need to watch over it.

    It cooks things very evenly, and I think it does a better job of some things than an oven would, e.g. sausages & rashers.

    It only goes to 200C, which I thought was a downside but it is hot enough for me, this means stuff like silicone bakeware or other nonstick items should hold up longer, I have resued little sheets of baking paper a few times before throwing it out, in a regular oven they are often brown or brittle.

    Easy to clean. After cooking I sometimes pour off fat into a jar and then put some water (hot or cold) in it and pop it back in to "cook" a while. This heats up the water and makes cleaning easier. I do find it a bit big for the dishwasher but have put it in a few times.

    Just made 2 spectacular bacon cheeseburgers as a test, buns and all done perfectly in the Airfryer in 15 minutes, must have been half a pint of grease in the bottom from them aswell, 10/10 first attempt anyway. Will be moving on to healthier stuff from now on though.

    It was a bit of a pain in the arse to clean afterwards though, whats the best way to do it if you dont use a diswasher in peoples opinion? Dont want to damage the mesh, its a bit thin.


  • #115

    Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,444 ✭✭✭greasepalm


    fairy liquid and near boiling water and a nylon bristle brush.

    maybe that was the example of healthy eating by whats left in the bottom as your not consuming it.

    While its still hot I pour the oil into a glass jar, there is a risk of cracking of course, but has never happened. I then cap it and pour the next waste on top of that the next time.

    I pour water into the airfryer and put it back in for a few mins to reheat it. I sometimes put fairy liquid in and top it up so its just covering the wire mesh, then leave it in the machine so its not taking up any counter space. With this steeping I find it just easily cleans off the next time.

    As above I only use plastic bristle brushes. However several spots of paint/coating have come off the bottom section -this was before I even had washing up liquid and was always a gentle wash. They are not rusting or anything and still clean easy.

    For burgers after it is finished I then put cheese on and back in, which melts it nicely

    I line the bottom and side of my airfryer with tinfoil! Doesn't make any difference to the cooking! I pour a kettle of hot water onto the mesh to get rid of the stubborn bits and pop the basket in the dishwasher once a week for a proper clean.

    Thanks all. Would it have killed them to put a removable plate in the shape of that fan indentation in the bottom though? Might have a look into knocking something up myself from the various worn out pans I have. I assume it would have to be a pretty close match to the fan shape though or it will disrupt the air circulation, might be beyond my fabrication skills...

    I dont want to use tinfoil every time I cook. Its really not that big a deal anyway, delighted with the amount of grease Im getting off things especially breakfast meats.

    Yeah I gave them a few sprays of this, maybe that was the problem and I should have just tossed them in a bowl with normal vegetable oil first, the Dunnes Store Finest Crinkle-Cut oven chips I did the other night were really nice, no oil added:

    I've found over the years that olive oil is actually not the best to use - try a good quality vegetable oil.

    Simply put the raw potatoes into a large bowl, pour 2-3 tablespoons of oil over them, mix well so all the spuds are coated and away you go at 180 degrees.

    Here's a few more pointers:
    • cut the potatoes as small as you can - I am almost using cubed potatoes at this stage (well, slightly elongated cubes). They cook a lot better
    • don't overload the basket as it prevents the air from circulating
    • shake them regularly to ensure even cooking
    • In contradiction to the first point above, I found some great frozen chunky chips in Tesco (own brand, black bag). They come out amazingly well in the air fryer and go well with a steak dinner

    Perfect steak this evening on my first attempt, 5 minutes preheating at 200 then in for 10 minutes, didnt shake it or turn it or even open the drawer and it came out cooked to perfection, as in better than the frying pan, fat all crispy like crackling and the meat was lovely and moist even though I only added salt and pepper and there was a fairly deep layer of crap in the drip tray, probably the best steak Ive ever cooked not on a barbecue to be honest. Ill probably only give it 8-9 minutes next time though. Crappy pic:

    9koPzI9.png?1

    Funny thing about the Airfryer is its been a bit of a disappointment when it comes to chips so far which is why I bought it, but any meat I've done in it has been absolutely spectacular. Steak, pork chops, cheeseburgers, chicken burgers, Donegal Catch etc all perfectly cooked in 10 minutes. You can lay a full Irish of sausage, bacon, pudding, hash browns and a tomato in the basket and pull it out in 10 minutes perfectly cooked with half a pint of grease in the tray instead of in your gut... its just so effortless, and it tastes 10X better than anything that comes out of our horrible dirty electric oven, Ill never be able to do without one again tbh, theres a George Foreman in everyones house and they dont come close to the speed or quality of the Airfryer.

    [/LIST]
    Almost all frozen chips or wedges will be partially cooked in oil already. This is why frozen wedges take a shorter time to cook than freshly cut ones.

    I was saying before most negative reviews about the airfryer are due to chips, and I think they are doing themselves a disservice by calling it an airfryer and making out like the chips will magically be like deep fried ones.

    I would even add extra oil to frozen oven chips, I do this in a regular oven too.

    Yeah the best thing to do is just use oven chips, I find Dunnes version of Tesco Finest in the black bags come out tasting like they've been deep fat fried, especially the crinkle cut ones. Not a healthy option though.

    For the eggs I just do the perfect poached egg microwave trick, with a splash of vinegar its just like the egg you get in a good hotel breakfast:

    have a tefal for 6 months or so, best kitchen item ive bought,and i was mainly using it for chips,roasties . throw in a bag of baby spuds for 30 cent from lidl,a knob of garlic butter and a sprinkling of salt n pepper, 25 mins later unreal garlic roasted baby spuds.

    ive just recently seen curries and chillies made in them in youtube vids,as well as stews and the like,wings and stuff .. simple to use,simple to clean,superb device imo.


    only sorry i didnt get the biggest one

    edit. also ,for leftover roasties the next day, 5 -6 mins and they are even better than fresh ...if ya get a take away and chips are a bit cool whn ya get home, 3 mins in the actifry and crispy goodness :)

    I find the airfryer brilliant for reheating real chipper chips, and anything that was deep fried, like batter burgers, chinese chicken balls or wings, onion rings etc, pizza comes out good too. I now use it to reheat stuff just as much as a microwave, the mircowave is terrible at reheating some of the stuff I listed.

    I actually sometimes prefer the chipper chips when they are redone as sometimes they are just barely cooked in some chippers, you can get them really golden brown & crispy if that is what you like. The various supermarket "finest" chips or more expensive branded ones can be more expensive than a chipper per gram of chips. Many chippers give stupidly big portions.

    I paid the equivalent of E180 for one here in Thailand about 4 months ago (digital model ). Great invention.Throw pre -cut chips in without any oil ,and done in around 25 minutes .Also does meat and chicken etc with a far better taste than using a microwave .They say to use a tea spoon of oil ,but i find its best in most cases without any .The long term durability though i would question ,as its all plastic parts under great heat .

    Got some jumbo bbq sauce sausages down at the local butchers and it cooked them perfectly. Chips turned out nice as well but I will experiment with a few brands to find the perfect chip. Might try making my own over the weekend to see how it goes.

    Extremely happy with it the cooking results, its as noisy as an open oven but it barely used €0.20 of electricity after more than an hour. Would definitely recommend this.

    Ive started making fried chicken in my Airfryer and it is coming out perfect, big packs of thighs and drumsticks or wings in Aldi for nothing, dump 2 eggs, a dash of milk, good amount of whatever hot sauce you like (BBQ and other sauces would work here aswell Id say), whip it up like omelet mix, I don't really bother with measurements, throw the chicken in and give it a good shake and/or let it marinate for a while then toss it in a couple of spoons of flour and whatever herbs you like (garlic grinder is nice here), into the Airfryer for 20 minutes on high. Its restaurant quality chicken for 10 minutes work.

    The last couple of Aldi Super 6's have had Spatchcock garlic and herb chicken and theres currently lemon and honey thighs for €2 and these are perfect for the Airfryer aswell Ive found.

    I do sausages at about 180 or 190, at 200 they often explode. I sometimes prick the skin.

    If not pricked they can balloon up. I do mine for about 8-10mins with no preheating. When you pull them out the moment they are done they can look really odd, as the skin can be expanded out like a balloon, depending on brand. It can be tempting to put them back in again as you think they are not brown/done enough -but it is just like a long balloon, which goes a paler colour when blown up, when they cool down the skin contracts and they can look far browner.

    Its ideal for people fussy about sausages who do not like any white/pale looking bits.

Obviously if you whack it on max temp and throw in a frozen cod or something it will be done on the outside and raw in the middle, you have to give it longer for things like that at 170-180 C. Google cook x in airfryer for anything and you'll find people discussing it.

    I tried the frozen burgers and find them easier with a frying pan as they can cause a mess and get very smokey. Fresh burgers are better suited to the Actifryer I reckon, its makes quick work of them.
