bruno22rf Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 10 hours ago, moondoggy said: Because the air is blown at a higher speed than a fan oven and heats up very quickly, like a hot air gun, it will hit temperature in seconds rather than minutes. I do a cherry tomato dish in olive oil and balsamic vinegar that takes 40 minutes in a preheated conventional oven. In the air fryer, it takes 20 minutes. Any longer and it would be burnt. Mine is top of the range, it's 2.4kw and takes at least 3 minutes to reach 190c? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you select,say, 200c and put your food in ,it's not going to hit 200 for 3-4 minutes. The only time I have preheated the air fryer is when I made a loaf of bread. I have not yet tried bread without preheating as I have only made one loaf as of yet. You haven’t said how long it takes for your conventional oven to reach 190c. I would imagine it is far longer than two or three minutes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where thge AF falls down is capacity, a full roast for ,say, 6 is quicker in a conventional oven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billytheghillie Posted March 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 If you cook a whole chicken in it, can you still get the stock out the air fryer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good shot? Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 We got the “double bucket” Ninja with temperature probe about a month ago and the gas oven has not been used since. My wife loves it not only because it cooks much quicker but there is less washing up (for me) to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
