Having lost my appetite many times this definitely helps me to enjoy food again, you won't be disappointed.

It is much better than I expected & I would definitely recommend to anyone. I have tried the temperature probe for burgers & as someone who likes the food overdone It was not for me needed a bit longer on highest setting but may try it on other meats. The tip to use parchment paper in the airfryer dish also makes it a pleasure to use which helps with the medical problems I have which make moving around & cooking often difficult.Ī little big & heavier than expected but fits neatly on the countertop. No stick, smoke or oil splatter makes cleaning easier with wiping with just a damp cloth. So far I have used the grill & airfryer & I am amazed at how much better the food tastes compared to oven or ordinary grill cooking. I did my research prior & found lots of helpful videos on YouTube & recipes the ninja definitely puts the fun back into cooking. I have previously been using a instant pot for a while for stews & I decided to go for the ninja foodi as I am unable to BBQ outside. As a disabled person not needing to bend to check ovens and grills is a real bonus too, this does everything at worktop height.I will add photos to this review of food cooked in the Air Grill at a later date (it slipped my mind to take any up until now) so you can see its results and my progress. As for value for money, in my opinion, after using it every day for a week, it’s great value. I’m still finding my feet with it but it’s fabulous. You get a little book of recipes to try, but this will do so much more than is in there. It’s incredibly versatile, simplicity itself to use, the instructions are fairly brief but they cover all you need to know. The dehydrating setting works and it works well.I absolutely love this grill/oven/fryer. You can dehydrate lots of things and even make your own beef jerky. It takes time to dehydrate as it has to be done at such a low temperature, so 8 hours later I had perfect crispy, sweet banana slices, ideal for snacks or on cereals.
Ninja chicken vs guard chicken update#
As this unit has a hinged lid that doesn’t drop back down, doing anything during the cooking time is easy,4) Roast - again I’ve not tried it as we don’t really roast meat very often, I will try it over the festive season and update this review, but this becomes a fan style oven with simple controls, so I think it will be fine for roasting small joints.5) Dehydrate - I cut up 3 banana into 3mm (ish) slices and placed them as instructed, one layer in the main pan, and another layer in the cooking tray. You have to shake the basket during cooking to ensure even results. The grill has different heat settings so you can be sure everything is cooked thoroughly, again you have a some preheating to do but you do only need to use temperature and time buttons to actually cook things.3) Airfry - I’ve not tried this as I have an air-fryer and I tend to use these side by side, The instructions look simple and given what I know about how air-frying works I can’t see why this wouldn’t do the job. The grill tray comes with a brush to clean it, although I found hot soapy water got it clean anyway. You get chargrilled with the grill marks and the taste of food cooked outdoors but without the smells and smoke. If you want to add a brush on sauce you just lift the lid and brush it on during cooking. Perfectly cooked chicken breasts in 10-15 minutes, it will cook them from frozen too in about 25-30 minutes.

I’ve used this function for 3 different meals and it’s produced great results.2) Grill - this is indoor BBQing with no mess or smoke. You simply choose the temperature and the time, leave the unit to heat up (handy little lights show you how close to temperature it is) pop the food in and leave it to cook. That said it does so much so for me the size isn’t a problem.1) Bake - this is ideal for things like chicken kievs, no mess as the pan they go in is easy clean and they cook perfectly. My picture shows it on a standard sized cooker top.

I will begin by saying this is a big bit of equipment. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2019
