Â* Buy it , you'll love it . Particularly good for stuff like frozen
(breaded) chicken strips , shrimps , tater tots , any food that's
usually deep or pan fried is a candidate . The only down side we've seen
it that there must be a little oil of some kind on (fried) stuff or it
doesn't brown well . Ours gets used at least 2 or 3 times a week . We
got one for each of our 3 kids for Christmas , they were a big hit .

I was being sarcastic (as if you couldn't tell!) cuz I knew zip about
air fryers. I thought they were still those weird things sold on
infomercials or other late-night TV adds. I didn't realize they were
basically high-temp convection ovens in a minature pkg. I'm
intrigued, now!

So, do "air fryers need oil? Wiki sez: "The air fryer works
alternatively by coating the desired food in a thin layer of oil while
circulating air heated up to 200 °C to confer energy and initiate the
'maillard' (author added) reaction."

I see Farberware's 3.2qt Digital "Oil-Less" fryer fer jes $40, jes about
what I can afford! So, are they "Oil-Less" or not?

<https://www.walmart.com/ip/Farberware-3-2-Quart-Digital-Oil-Less-Fryer/722613447>

I'll probably only use mine fer home-made french fries and stuff like that. I
don't cook much processed food (Pizza Rolls). Plus, there's only one of me!

OMG! ....one of those hideous TV devices! So, it's true!!:

Definite here. The one we want is out of stock at our chosen retailer but
it has been ordered.

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

I did buy a small bag of cheese ones for New Year's Eve. On sale for just
over $2 so no biggie if nobody likes them.

I get them at times too. Handy snack if you don't feel like cooking
but it's late at night. You can pull out just a few.

Definitely not a good idea for anyone watching their weight, will
easily put on ten pounds a month by encouraging fried foods. However
they are very good for those who don't have a weight problem.
Since my wife has had a double knee replacement she ddoesn't want to
gain any weight, not that she's overweight anyway, but we decided to
eat healthier for the new year so we will celebrate with pot roast
rather than oven roast... it's very easy to skim the fat from braised
meat. I already have the 5+ pound top round seasoned for browning and
then braising manana:

Weak people like you need others to take down and belittle so they
don't feel so low and lonely at the bottom of their s**t pile. Without

He's just spouting off. I seem to recall he bought an air-popper for
popcorn way back when. It's sort of the same concept.

I'm sure you still do need a little bit of oil (a spritz of canola
spray, perhaps) to make stuff crisp. It might be a handy small
appliance for rosie. I doubt I'd ever use one.

It's exactly the same as pan/deep frying, food is coated with and
absorbs oil, especially breaded/battered foods. The fallicy lies in
the fact that it makes frying easy so encourages eating much more
fried food. The only savings is not needing a deep fryer so air
frying is *safer* and no used oil needs to be stored... however the
caloric content from fat is precisely the same as pan/deep frying when
food is drained on paper towels.

Demonstrating your ignorance... no oil is used in air poppers.... and
in all the years you've been at RFC your dense skull has absorbed
absolutely nothing regarding culinary data, you obviously haven't a
clue why popping corn pops. Mayhaps were you not so intent on
attempting to denigrate others you'd learn how to cook... posting
pictures of take-out is NOT cooking... that's exactly the same as
posting URLs for recipes with pictures lifted off the net and thinking
anyone with functioning brain cells believes they cooked that. I've
seen pictures of the pittifully few things you actually cooked, you
should be very embarrassed/ashamed of how badly you trashed perfectly
good ingredients.

He really should tone down the pervert sex stuff and misogynistic crap,

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

A friend of mine tried one. She used it a few times and was happy enough
with it. You can do the same thing in an oven, so you don't have to
spend the money on another appliance that is likely to end up taking up
storage space beside the bread maker, stand mixer and waffle iron.

We use a hot oven for a lot of things that would otherwise be done in
the oven. The oven is already there and paid for. You would have to use
a lot before the power savings cover the cost of the air fryer. Besides,
whenever we oven fry something we are usually doing something else that
will use that hot oven.

Â* We use ours mostly to heat frozen stuff , but it also does a great
job on stuff like pork chops , meat balls , hamburger patties etc . For
timing , tater tots take around 16-20 minutes , chicken tenders 10-12
minutes , pizza rolls 6 , most stuff takes around the same times as
frying or a bit less . And none of it comes out dripping grease and oil
or soggy like microwaved foods . We haven't tried whole chicken breasts
, but breast strips took around 12-14 minutes from raw to yummy . Stuff
like breaded (raw) chicken I spray with some olive or vegetable oil from
a trigger sprayer . Frozen stuff has enough oil from the pre-cooking
done before they freeze it .

Thanks very much Since you posted, I have been researching online and I
am very impressed I hadn't realise they were so versatile!

It is always good to get personal recommendations though)

Once I get mine and begin to experiment, maybe we can work with a thread to
discuss it)

Thanks again)

Are you sure about the relative power use? I have been looking at a
number of sites and get the impression that they don't really save that
much power. They have a significant and constant power draw.

I assume that these things operate at around 1600W, which would be the maximum for US appliances. One for the UK could be considerably higher. My guess is that the power savings and speed would be similar to a toaster oven. I don't care much about any reduction in oil. I use a lot of oil.

Exactly. Other than making bread, my oven is not used often.

Granted, we don't use our oven when it's warm out. Luckily, that's
only four months a year. Most of the rest of the time, it just means
the furnace runs less. Plus, we're not interested in that kind of food
when it's hot; we're all about the grill during the spring, summer,
fall, and anytime it's over 20 F during the winter.

Our interest in fried food is so small that we just go to a restaurant
for it a couple times a year.

I only deep fry 2-3 times a year so I have a dedicated 1.5qt
saucepan for that. When I do, I'll deep fry many things (on my
fry list) for up to a week, then be done with it for another 4-6
months.

WE pan fry probably every month but that's apt to mostly be small
things in a little olive oil or canola oil depending on what it is.
Call it max 6TB oil generally and normally would be closer to 4TB.

The Air Fryer might be useful here.

I have a deep fryer. I don't remember the last time I used it. It's
a pain to clean. All I want is a big slab of fried catfish a couple
of times a year. I can't get that around here. Actually, I can't get
decent fried fish around here. I think you have to be near one of
those really big bodies of water for people to treat fish prep
decently.

Usually the crime is overcooking. At my local eatery he does great
fish and chips but I always send the server in with the message, 'the
one who doesn't like it overcooked' and it is perfect everytime. He
came out to chat with me once and said that he overcooks the fish
because that's how most people like it. You cook try asking the cook
not to overcook and see if you like it better.

I don't like catfish, but it's pretty easy to get good fish and chips
hereabouts. We've got a fair few bars where they really know what to
do at the fryer.
