How Does An Air Fryer Cook?
An air fryer cooks with air technology. This means that air circulates around the food and the food cooks with air. This creates a similar result as you would expect with a convection oven.
This also means that you need very little oil, but you do need to adjust the way you cook compared to a regular oven.
Air fryer cook times tend to be less and food needs to be turned to make sure that you get an even cook, especially with the air circulating above the food.
How Long Does An Air Fryer Last?
This can vary depending on the brand of air fryer that you own. Like many things in life, you get what you pay for.
The Philips Airfryer brand is the best and was also the first. This means that they had time to make theirs the best and constantly improve the air technology.
I bought my first air fryer back in 2011 (it was this one) and it didn’t need replacing for 7 years. Even then after 7 years it was scruffy with a broken part. We could have got the part repaired but we wanted to move up to the modern version, as it felt like we were stuck in the dark ages.
It is also worth mentioning that our air fryers are used up to 10 times a day and that you probably will use your less and will last longer.
Food Cooked In An Air Fryer
You are probably wondering what food is like that is cooked in the air fryer. My first thought is lower in fat.
You can cook air fryer roast potatoes with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Compare this to deep frying them in a litre of oil and I am sure you get the idea.
But even though food is low fat, the flavour is just as good, and the crisp is like deep frying.
Think of food cooked in an air fryer as a healthier alternative but while still enjoying all your favourite foods.
How Long Does Air Frying Take?
This is like asking how long does food take to cook in the oven, and your answer will often be, that it depends on what food you are cooking.
Well the same rule applies to the air fryer.
Quick foods in the air fryer like reheating food carries the lowest cook time, whilst food like an air fryer frozen whole chicken is likely to take the longest.
