Voilà. Have you ever tried an airfryer? I was surprised how much I like and use it, It's super versatile and easy clean up. IMO, the results are even better than frying. I turned my mom and neighbor on to them, and they love it as well. I sound like an infomercial, lol! 3 GreenTealael, Slimming Down Steve and I Am Enough! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No I still have not bought one but I don't think this is one of those things that would work in an air fryer, its loose ingredients . can you make falafel or meat balls in an air fryer? If so maybe it would work... Disclaimer: I pan fry foods, olive oil, grape seed oil, etc. I never intended to give that up, ever...

As long as it will hold together somewhat it should be ok. Although I do appreciate the fat free aspect of the airfryer, I also appreciate to no mess aspect vs. frying and the "set it and forget it" aspect. My mom and my neighbor do a lot of wings in their airfryer, they both claim (and I agree) they are superior to pan fried. In fact my neighbor whom used to fry a majority of his meals (chicken, pork chops, etc) told me he has barely turned his stove on in months, and his last gas bill was $8. He is definitely not motivated by the health benefits either. 4 Kate142, clsumrall, GreenTealael and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was interested a while back but the small chamber size turned me away , I have teens and I would have to make batches and batches, so I took a hard pass. But I'm not in willing if the right one came around. thanks!!! 2 Kris77 and JKALLDAY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For just 1 it's fine, for two, it can be a challenge sometimes, for more than 2 it doesn't work at all. My mom and neighbor have two each, lol, my neighbor talks of getting a third one. I saw an infomercial for this one while I was in a waiting room. I have to admit I was sucked in and totally want it. Which is ridiculous considering I'm single, no kids and have a 2 oz stomach capacity http://www.powerairfryer.com/ 2 1 Orchids&Dragons, clsumrall and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
