They are 2 airfryers in 1, so handy for preparing different things at once, but if you want to prepare a whole mountain of fries at once, you can also set the device as 1 which makes it actually larger than an airfryer XL. This makes it about 500% easier to clean and keep than the old skool airfryers. In addition, the trays are more practically designed so that you get more and more shapes in them (at least we did). This device is no small boy, but certainly smaller than 2 normal airfryers, while the capacity is hardly less. We had 2 airfryers, but always fiddling with times, and it takes up a lot of space. What works unexpectedly pleasant is the 2 in 1 idea. The device has a "max crisp" setting, with which the temperature goes to 240 degrees and you give your fries that last crispy push. Normally I rarely write a review, but this device deserves one, everyone who uses an airfryer deserves this device! In addition, the device also works really well (because of other airfryers).
I want to throw everything in the Ninja foodi now There is no separate tray with grid, but enamel grids with feet. Oh and one final bonus: it's dead easy to clean as well.Trays have a smooth inside without weird shapes, so super easy to clean It's taken two cheap appliances in the air fryer and Instant Pot and reinvented them as a genuinely high-end cooking device. Possibly the novelty of the Foodi MAX will wear off in time but for now I'm a convert, and I can't wait to find out what else this multi-cooking marvel can do. With most recipes, this one-pot wonder can be largely left to do its thang, while you enjoy wine o'clock and entertain/monitor the kids. With a decent hotplate setting to sauté veg, sear meat and reduce sauces and gravy after cooking is over, I am increasingly finding myself ignoring my hob, oven and my huge and expensively assembled array of pans.īut while the Foodi MAX is a lot of fun for an 'experimental' cook like me, it would obviously also be a great purchase for a parent cooking for the family. Although there is also a slow cooker setting of course, if you aren't so worried about time. However it also comes in handy to reduce the cooking time on larger joints of meat that you would normally slow cook. The pressure cooker setting, of course, is great for stews and soups. Thanks to the steam functions it's also apparently great for baking cakes. You can make smaller loaves as well, of course. If you've ever wondered what a 7.5-litre sized loaf of bread looks like, now's your chance. Oh yeah, and it can also be used to cook bread – and to prove the dough to make that bread.
#Ninja foodie air fryer skin#
I haven't been able to properly crisp up the skin yet but the meat was incredibly succulent and flavoursome both times. Air fry, air roast, air broil, bake, bagel. Using the air fry and steam roast settings gave subtly different but equally impressive results with chicken. The Ninja Foodi digital air fry oven packs a lot of features and cooking Capacity in a small countertop footprint. The result was, if I say so myself, MWAH! Chef's kiss. I had potatoes sat in some stock underneath to produce the steam and when the cooking time was nearly up I poured off the excess liquid to make gravy and briefly air fried the spuds so they weren't soggy, while the perfectly cooked lamb rested. This week I did a butterflied lamb leg marinated in rosemary and garlic on the steam roast setting. The real genius of the Foodi Max is you can follow recipes found online and create delicious meals with ease, or more experienced/adventurous chefs can easily improvise their own. Although there aren't many recipes specifically for Ninja's big pot, Instant Pot recipes are easy to adapt for its pressure cooker settings because, well, a pressure cooker is a pressure cooker.Īlthough I think it will take me a while to get my head around all 15 settings on this beast, I've already had some successes. Perfect for families and large households, the Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone 9.5L Air Fryer does the thinking and timing for you.
