Sorry. Yes 175."175?
hahaha, the 1st time I made chicken, I used your recommendation of around 165-175C and it was great - this time around I blasted it at 200C and my house was filled with smoke and chicken tastes no better - so I'll stick to your temps next timeSorry. Yes 175."275 only get unlocked after 300 meals.
I saw 1 XL at Makro RIversands yesterday (Dunno if that helps you)Hi All. Thanks for the feedback. Everyone seems out of stock for the XL. Awaiting patiently for stock to arrive
not sure where you are, but these guys had 4 left before I bought mine a week agoHi All. Thanks for the feedback. Everyone seems out of stock for the XL. Awaiting patiently for stock to arrive
MY mind went south thereI do everything at 175. I open the back door if it is something fatty.![]()
I think hotter can go faster but you can easily dry it if in for a bit too long. It also depends on the size of the pieces.hahaha, the 1st time I made chicken, I used your recommendation of around 165-175C and it was great - this time around I blasted it at 200C and my house was filled with smoke and chicken tastes no better - so I'll stick to your temps next time![]()
Yeah. I'm looking to get the Grill pan but it seems a bit steep... These guys are a tad cheaper: https://www.slservices.co.za... I'm looking at getting one of these. Yuppiechef has accessories btw
I went oil shopping today.... and got some marrow bones as well
I could not find the "Simple Truth refined coconut oil spray" at PnPay, so went to Checkers, where it was supposedly on special at R35 IIRC - bought 2
Also got some westfalia Avo oil, plain, butter and lemon flavoured - will test them soon to see if they produce less smoke - they state a 250C smoke point, so should be better?





Made some marrow bones this afternoon.
Fryer on 180C, 10min one side and another 8mins after turning.
Before putting in fryer, I salted, peppered, garlic flaked and a bit of piri-piri spice, with a dash of lemon avo oil on top.
Made two slices of toast and added some worcestershire sauce to the one slice.
Delicious!! but very rich, as most know - tripple Red Heart and coke, took some of the oiliness away afterwards

No. That doesn't sound right.Question for the Philips XL owners, do you folk notice that the handle of the XL basket gets considerably hot? I used mine for around 20 min at 180 and the handle was quite hot to the touch. It that normal or is there something wrong with mine?
I have used the previous (smaller) air fryer and the handle will stay cool even after an hour of continuous use
