5 Reasons you need an Air Fryer now to eat healthy
Do Air Fryers really work to healthy cooking?
In one word: they do!
Air fryers are small kitchen appliances that are here to stay, like crock pots, toasters, blenders and many more awesome small appliances built to make life in the kitchen easier and faster.
There is one difference though, Air Fryers were designed for cooking healthier food.
Air fryers concept is very simple and smart: uses rapid air circulation to create heat that goes up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
A lit bit of oil and the result is crispy, golden but healthy food. From eggs, to French Fries, baking cakes, frying bacon and anything you like deep fried, can be done with an Air fryer.

Lots of people are raving about Air Fryers lately and there are many reasons for that.
- Any food cooked in an Air Fryer is way healthier than the regular deep fryer, 70% to 80% less oil used, it is a huge benefit, just for this reason
- Faster cooking time
- No smoke or smell in the kitchen, but most importantly, NO MESS!
- It is a reasonably cheap appliance for all it can do. Even the most basic Air fryers work very well. The most sophisticated ones will offer features as larger drawers for bigger portions, prettier design and added paddle that stirs and turns the food around.
- Perfect for any size of families. For one or 2 people cooking one batch will be plenty, for larger amounts of “crispies”, you can easily put the second batch in, while you’re eating the first one, cooking time is really fast.
- Frozen food and Air Fryers can be a great combination. Frozen fries, small pot piecing most frozen foods work very well
- You can control de amount of oil to cook with. I use olive oil, with this great oil sprayer but you can also brush the food lightly with butter, coconut oil or any other type.
- They can look really attractive sitting on your counter top.
- Cleaning is a breeze! There is not much residue. Let it soak in hot water for 10 min. and put both trays in the dish washer.
You can fry, steam, grill, roast, and even bake with it! The timer and temperature can be set to be automatic, but if you preferred to manually check your food you can do that as well.

My Air Fryer – T-Fal Fry Delight
We bought our Air Fryer on a great sale at Boxing Day. We decided to go for the cheapest one at the time because all the raving around sounded like another big sales pitch. We were suspicious.
Now I wish we had bought the larger model, so we don’t have to do 2 batches when we have more people eating with us. Other than that, the T-Fal Fry Delight is amazing!
We tried many different things: chicken fingers (frozen and homemade), fries (frozen and home made), sweet potato fries, crispy vegetables like cauli-flower, broccoli and egg plant, lightly breaded but our favourite ever is Chicken wings.
Get your Air Fryer, you won’t regret it!
