I'd like a rack to separate food instead of cooking twice, but is it worth it?
 
Hey guys
I also got an airfryer last year November, Yes Red Viking it is a Phillips, I'm sure you are proud of me lol

We have been using it every other day since then, everything has come out perfect thus far, will post some stuff soon.

My contribution, if anyone wants to bake in it, we were looking for a baking pan in December and came across the Millini Springform pan 20cm x20cm (bought at Checkers Menlyn @R70),it fits perfectly inside the XL, and the side of the pan can come out and then you can also use just the base of the pan for pizzas....

Keep well and stay safe, enjoying your Airfryer meals :)

I also use a 20x20 spring form pan. You can actually use it for anything and not just baking. It seals quite well. I also have a glass dish that fits in perfectly.

There is really very little reason to buy some of the over priced Philips accessories. Just be a bit creative.

Do you know the make or even the barcode....

You don’t need to preheat the oven for most things that take an hour or more to cook though. Putting the chicken into a cold oven means it cooks more evenly. 90 minutes and you’re good. I’ll try the air fryer chicken but it sounds like extra work.

Quite frankly cooking chicken at all is work.

It’s hardly more expensive to just buy a whole cooked chicken and be done with it.

That’s such an insult to the lovely steak.

Toss it on the braai you moffie !

The best steak is reverse seared using an oven.

Don’t see why an Air Fryer couldn’t do the same.

But it needs to hit a pan (or braai) either after or before the oven.

Braai only never cooks it quite as evenly.

Cause I cook 2 layers simultaneously.

But what stops you just making two layers normally?

That’s what I do hence the question.

I stop half way and flip them around a bit, but I’m sure you’d still do the same with that trick as well?

You mean lying to pieces of chicken on top of each other... As in skin to skin? Nothing I suppose seeing as you're doing it. Just didn't want to.

No I don't do any flipping. Put in, put on, take out.

Yeah I put in (frozen) crumbed chicken fillets and just overlap them as necessary and it’s never been an issue and I don’t even bother to flip any more.

I guess if you are making your own batter or crumbing them yourself then you run into the problem of the areas touching pulling the batter off.
 
I'm sure this has been mentioned before. And I'm not even doing it with a Philips air fryer. (It's a Midea - but I do have a Philips as well)

But, just in case. Best cheese toasties ever!

4 slices white bread
Marge them on all sides
Slice of "normal" cheddar cheese on each
Slice of processed cheese (cheddar flavour) on each

Let the toasties toast in what an air-fryer does.

Pure melted and tasteful cheese toast.
 
How I make air fryer chips for 2 people, and they are fantastic:

Peel potatoes and cut into thick chips (3 medium / 2 large)
Place in a microwave safe container with lid
Mix teaspoon of bicarb with enough water to cover potatoes.
microwave for 5.5minutes.
drain water and let chips air dry for a new minutes.
sprinkle with oil, put on lid, and shake to coat with oil and to form a “mash” exterior.
airfry @ 180 for 15 minutes.
shake/turn
Airfry @ 180 for another 8-15 minutes depending on thickness and desired brownness
