Should I go microwave free and buy an air fryer?

[Webbo2]

All my porridge is made with milk, however my luxury version before big rides has Golden syrup on top.

 

[Pblakeney]

Or made with milk or water

...or milk and water. For me, 1/3 water left to sit a minute then 2/3 semi-skimmed milk.
Unless I'm feeling extravagant then it will be 100% water but fresh cream added after cooking.

So, a new air fryer, microwave and car. Come on Accy, splashing the dosh ?

Do they not sell oven gloves in Glasgow?

Aye, but it’s a bit awkward holding a spoon with them.

Normally I would agree with you but.......
Without boring you, now I am on my own and not enjoying the best of health, sometimes it's a case of getting something simple down my neck so............
A C T pizza in one draw and some chips in the other it fills a hole.

Maybe you're doing it wrong.

Hold the bus.

Now that Accy has come out as a vegetarian I will revise my original advice and say DON’T buy an air fryer! Without using it for meat, what is the actual point other than chips?

In fact, I now change my advice to buying an airfryer and abandoning vegetarianism!

Well, pescatarian to be honest, bordering on veganism, seeing I hardly eat any dairy produce now. The one below is now out the reckoning as that 60 quid offer on a Tesco club card has disappeared, and it's digital which might be too complicated for me. I asked one of the staff in Tesco if I could put 'sloppy' food in one. He said they make/sell things that make the baskets able to put liquid in, or you can just use tin foil to line the basket. Everyone I've asked in there, and it's a lot all say they'd rather have an air fryer than a microwave, but wouldn't give up their microwave. Tonight I saw some garlic and herb potato wedges in the reduced section. I always fancy them when I see them half price or less, but don't buy them as cooking them in a microwave isn't a good idea. I think you can still use an air fryer for many none meat foods like fish, jacket potatoes, pizzas, chips, fruit pies etc and of course with my dog still being a carnivore, I could use an air fryer to cook raw meat for him.🐶

Ah, one of those happy clappy religions, eh?

At the moment it's 70 percent to 30 percent in my mind for an air fryer, rather than another microwave. 🤔

 

[CentralCommuter]

Well, please don’t rush in to it, give it some more thought!

 

[Drago]

Our Accy is know for his impulsive behaviour.

 

[CentralCommuter]

We could all chip in a few pounds and get one delivered to him, speed the process up!

Who'd have thought porridge would be so polarising?

Dare I ask... salt or sugar?

Both. A pinch of salt, and spoonful of demerara sugar.

Anything you would cook in an oven can be done in an airfryer if the portions are a suitable size to fit. And done more quickly, using less energy.

Cheaper than a gas oven ? Gas is about a third of the cost of leccy. Our oven which isn't that large can cook oven chip in 16 minutes
if you thaw them out before hand

These things take time!🤔 😉👍
