Britain Has Gone Air Fryer Mad According To Denise Van Outen

The air fryer has definitely taken the UK by storm, with one in three people owning one in the biggest kitchen revolution since the microwave. Versatile and compact, they have fast become the appliance of choice with thousands of families making the switch, with Tower being one of the UK’s go to suppliers.
 

But don’t just take our word for it. Fronted by Denise van Outen, Channel 4 show “Air Fryers: Are they Worth it” investigated exactly why so many people have opted to make the switch, looking at the health, financial and time benefits. By comparing the Tower T17100 Dual Basket Vizion Air Fryer with similar appliances, it was clear to see that air fryers have earned their place as a staple of the modern kitchen. 

Denise van Outen declared that ‘Britain has gone air fryer wild’ and took part in a 30 day trial of an air fryer diet, attempting to recreate a takeaway curry and examining a number of recipes to test the versatility and cooking capabilities of a number of air fryers.

A key benefit highlighted by the show was how easy it is to feed an entire family in no time. One family cooked a full roast dinner in an hour using their air fryer, almost half the time it took to cook in a conventional oven using identical ingredients. With this in mind, it is clear that you can save time and money by switching to air frying. So not only do you eat healthier, you save money as well! Winner Winner Half the Time Chicken Dinner!

Denise Van Outen also highlighted the difference in calories when air fryer cooked food was compared with oven cooked food. Using baked aubergine as an example, the end result showed the air fryer variant was 65% healthier than their oven counterparts, whilst chips were 22% healthier when compared to deep fat fried chips. This is mainly due to less oil being required for thorough cooking and air being able to circulate, allowing it to reach every inch of the food for more even cooking.
