Air Fryers have been around a long time, and are by no means a new technology, however their recent rise in popularity is, in part, due to an increased use amongst the younger generation as seen across TikTok with airfryer recipe videos becoming increasingly popular on the social media platform. I had been meaning to get an air fryer for a while when I was offered the Ninja health grill and air fryer from the team at Very, for review.
The Ninja healthy grill and air fryer comes with a selection of cooking equipment to help make your air frying experience hassle free. The large capacity grill comes with 6 functions – air fry, bake, roast, reheat, dehydrate and grill. Food is cooked evenly on all sides, with space to feed all the family!
I tried out the Ninja health grill and air fryer for the first time this week, and was so impressed with the results! It was as simple as popping food in the microwave, but much healthier and with better results. I am now completely hooked, can totally see what they hype is all about and will be trying my hand at other creations imminently! If you aren’t sure whether this gadget is right for you, read on for five reasons you need an air fryer in your life right now.
Convenience
I am all about devices that are going to help me out as a busy mum of three (and recent dog mum too). Air fryers are so easy to use, with the display letting you know how long your food has left to cook, and prompting you if and when you need to do something (spoiler alert – you don’t have to do much at all). It does its thing, so that I can get on with the seemingly endless piles of washing up – I am awaiting a kitchen renovation and don’t have a dishwasher currently, it is a nightmare! There was a really handy setup guide that came with my Ninja health grill and air fryer, but it was super simple, and was up and running within minutes of opening the box – I do love an easy to use gadget!
Healthy Choices
I am in the process of toning up and making more sensible nutritional choices. As well as giving meal planning a go, I am trying to make healthier choices when it comes to my meals and an air fryer is the perfect right hand man for the job. I love how many healthy, simple recipes there are online, for those watching their weight. Quickly and evenly cook fresh and frozen ingredients using little to no added oil – Air fryers can result in up to 75% less fat than deep frying, so it really helps with those who are controlling their diets, or if you just fancy cutting down on your fat intake.
Get Creative
I have found a love of cooking recently, and an air fryer will give me the chance to try out different recipes I might have shied away from beforehand. I am already eyeing up a recipe for cajun grilled chicken and pepper kebabs, and I am looking forward to cooking for guests now restrictions are easing, and wowing them with my culinary creations! You can cook anything in an air fryer – from a whole roast joint, to roast potatoes, or even fresh bread or cakes.
Time Saving
Cooking with an air fryer can shave off so much time, which is brilliant if you don’t have much time in the evenings to cook. Not only can the air fryer cook meals faster than traditional methods, you can also save time by cooking multiple dishes in one place, using nifty attachments. For example, you can cook meat, veg and potatoes all at once in the air fryer, rather than slaving over a hot stove, making sure no pans are boiling over. You can even cook food from frozen – what game changer for those of us who always forget to defrost food in the morning!
All in One Option
As I say, dishes can be cooked together in an air fryer, which opens up possibilities, especially if you are short on space in your kitchen and don’t have room for lots of appliances. The Ninja air fryer is fairly bulky, but it can do the work of other devices, meaning you can save space in the long run. The best thing about getting the Ninja health grill and air fryer? You can grill steaks, chicken, fish and veg with a barbecue style finish, even when the British weather screws you over!
Have I converted you? If you are considering an air fryer, don’t just take my word on it, you can find plenty of positive experiences online, as well as lots of inspiration for recipes, if you do take the plunge and join the air fryer club!
