Religion Air Fryers

[PDXFonz]

Anyone have one, or used one? Able to compare them to deep frying?

I just bought one of these, look forward to trying it out.

I've been wondering about these. Like for chicken nuggets and frozen taquitos n' shit.

I would say I use it three or four days out of the week for something. It's fantastic! Chicken wings, asparagus, broccoli, mozzarella sticks, fries.......

It takes a little getting used to at first. You sort of develop your own feel for it, much like other cooking methods. Start with the recommended temperatures and times and go from there based on your own experiences. Hopefully you'll get a lot of use out of it. They're easy to wipe clean, too.

I am the only qualified person on this subject matter. My wife bought one and it occupies counter space along with all the other gadgets she bought.
The food delivered from this appliance is OUTSTANDING.
It's a crock pot without the wait.

Shouldn't this thread be an OT? Consult @HCP.

I thought I was the only expert but I was wrong.. There are two of us! Chicken in the air fryer is like light airy delicious food that Guy Fierri would hunt down.

My fancy new toaster oven has an air fryer function but I have not used it. I guess I need recipes? I don't normally fry much anyway, just saute.

We got one a few weeks ago and cook everything in it. Love the thing, it is so easy and eveything comes out great.

airfry is just a super convection oven. Not sure if there are any specific recipes, pretty much anything breaded comes out fantastic and fast. As close to frying as possible. One "recipe" we do like is instant biscuits cooked in the air fryer come out like a doughnut. I retired my toaster oven after getting the airfryer.

Yeah, but sometimes u don't wanna leave the house doe. Plus I live on the westside, the mexican food around me kinda sucks since I live around white people.

I can't remember the last time I breaded anything. I am getting my Instant Pot out again, though, since I need cooked chicken for another recipe. Figure put in 2 cups water, some carrot, onion, bay leaves and the mushrooms stems I trimmed off when I made risotto last week, set chicken on rack, pressure cook 25 minute. I'll have cooked chicken and can strain/defat liquid to use as stock when I need it. (I always need chicken stock.)

For your cooking style it might be more of a novelty, for us an airfryer is a necessity. I would say if you reheat food a lot or eat a lot of premade food then this is a must have appliance. I have an instapot also and I would rank then 1a and 1b in terms of household usefulness. This weekend I did chicken wings in the instapot and then finished them in the airfryer, they were fantastic.

 

[crandc]

Most of what I reheat is liquid based (soup, chili, stew) and I can reheat on stove or microwave; stuff like chicken I reheat in my toaster oven, which has a very nice reheat function. But hey, maybe some day I'll air fry something.

Got an Insta Pot a few months ago. Love it!

I can see how that could be really handy in the bunker.

Here is an aerial view of all 18 bunkers in my neighborhood.
