Heard of healthy fried food? These two opposing words when placed together sound weird, right? We were as astonished when we first witnessed what a simple kitchen appliance can do to regular fried food. Well, the food was cooked without any oil and the result was crispy crunchy deliciousness. This new appliance that has absolutely caught our fancy is the Philips Air Fryer.
At first, I truly thought it was another of those appliances that women would love to have but not use. Having seen the fryer lie to rust in my kitchen, I had low expectations from this one too.
But their claim of using 80 % less oil was intriguing, although it was laced with thoughts of munching on crispy French fries or crusty samosas without worrying about that increasing waistline. Yummy!
Just to feed this appetising thought, I had to take a look at this appliance that promised magic.
The demonstration started with the usual details of the product, but I wouldn’t believe it until I saw results. So, the demonstrator started by putting in some frozen (thawed) French fries into the fryer. He then set the timer and shut it. Without any oil! That caught our attention and now we were eager for the results.
15-minutes later, we were left awe-struck! The French fries were out of the fryer, with a perfect golden colour and at its crispy best. We were then told about the brilliant technology of rapid air that Philips Air Fryer has adopted that reduces the use of oil by 80% or none at all. Some foods contain oil or release oils, like pre-packaged foods for frying. The air fryer cooks such foods with no oil making them taste good, along with being way healthier.
This technology used by Philips works on the basis of a unique patented combination of high-speed air circulation system called the rapid air technology. This air passes through a fan and circulates around the food which cooks it in no time.
The food is not only crispy on the outside but, surprisingly moist inside. This is one appliance that all people suffering from high-cholesterol levels must purchase, so that they don’t have to compromise on their food cravings for fried munchies.
It is not a time-consuming appliance and saves you from the trouble of heating oil in a pan, protects you from burns caused by oil splutter and finally leaves no mess or sticky platforms surfaces that oil creates in the kitchen. With the Philips Air Fryer, all you need to do is plug it into the switch board, time it and let the food cook while you get busy running other household errands.
With a time span of just 12-15 minutes, you will surprised at how fast the food will be ready.
So if you haven’t gifted yourself anything this Diwali, consider getting this extremely useful kitchen appliance.
