Hi Para K yg bijaksana dan budiman.

saya tahu semua sedang bizi menganalisa politik malaysia yg penuh drama dan mendebar kan.

tapi saya ingin mencelah seketika, nak tanya para k yg berpengalaman memakai air fryer.

saya tengah nak usha air fryer 5L philips.

ok ke pakai airfyer ni? ke semua gimik je? not good side effect or what ever.

so nk tanye sket pendapat K..

berbaloi tak airfryer?

wow ini jenama manyak bagus oooo. I guna Russell peters pun bagus Sudah ini mesti syiok

you know oven ? air fryer is like oven. frying those ready made fried food ok, but if you want to fried chicken wing, those you marinate yourself, they tend to be dryer.

in fact, i think food by air fryer tend to be drier

buy, very good. have my air fryer for 5 years, still using it daily. heat up food/cake, fry fish/pork etc.

Berbaloi for me because it is the most used cooking items since I bought it during beginning of MCO 1.0

I bought the khind brand one and not Philips as it is easier to put things. It looks like regular oven instead of the pull out tray type.

Pros:
- Can reheat fast food like fries and chicken and it'll turn those soggy mess back to crispy

Cons:
- cooking food on the other hand, tend to be dry

betul ke healtyness dia?


so not good?

anything special about this brand?

Year 2021, people still buy Philips’s air fryer?

get something that come with glass door, so u can see whats happening inside without opening



still have different when compare it with deep fry, but still ok for most things, need to practice alot thats why glass is important.

the cheap one do the same thing as the expensive one, it's what people advise me. so save your money.

no need to buy so expensive one. You can get very decent one for less than RM300

CNA - Air Fryer Documentary

really? what cheap brand?

ok good suggestion.

any reason not good for 2021? other brand is better? what brand? can share?

i use it because malas mahu goreng.

so is just about making it easier?

people say it is healthier. but i cannot back that up

It's a great invention. Food tend to be crispier and you can really see the oil coming out of it. If I buy kepsi or nandos ..I will reheat and u see the oil collected at the basket ..Jesus just too much.

If you find the food to be dry ..what I do is put 50ml of water into the basket when I air fry chickens etc ..it will retain some moisture on the food....especially when I air fry broccoli....it becomes kering kontang so the water gives it some moisture so it's green and soft

make french fries ==>excellent!!
heat up french fries==>excellent!!
heat up KFC ==>excellent!
heat up kalipap Ikea ==>excellent!

honestly its alot easier on things that u can use

when you use oil to fry, usually you will need to do alot of cleaning, unless you have outdoor kitchen, and its more dangerous to use oil(accident do happen), also more healthy if you use less oil

airfryer = making overnight KFC feels fresh.

microwave and airfryer is the best thing for the kitchen. both might cost you only less than 1 k.

I am not sure about healthiness but definitely less oil if you need to fry things but the food tend to be a lot dryer than using oil to fry. Initially, you might not like it but after awhile you will get used to it and it does not really change the taste. Only the dryness because we’re used to eating fried things with oil.

ask them to compare frying Fries.


using 0 oil

AF is a TURBO-ED oven

cooks chicken thigh in 23 minutes

no need oil

yep make thing easy
put nugget, drummet, wedges/fries, frozen popia in settle.

oh my wife also cook salmon in. sometime chicken.

xiaomi air fryer rm169 only last time. use it almost everyday still good. almost 1 year dy.

This

Some say its good in cooking those already prepared frozen fried products.

How about frying freshwater fish? Kinda lazy to put so much oil in the pan to fry, every time oil pops out onto the floor.

for those who say dry, try using cooking spray.. it works

Bought early gen philips air fryer in 2016/17 for rm700+...very syok but super noisy, can fight my cheap ass hood. Last year wife bought cheap rm200 russel taylor air fryer, suprisingly super quite, did not even notice if it is running or not if you did not sit close by, but can do the same job as philips. So decided to give the old philips to relative, keep the russel taylor. Not sure the noise level for latest gen philips though

Berbaloi. Cook salmon, chicken grill, dumpling, currypuff, prata, patty, and many more.

Good also. I cook salmon and siakap with it.

Use foil for fish. Salmon produces too much oil.

Shoukd be less unhealthy, not healthy

Bought this one last month..net including cash back + points ..around
RM 365

Ok la..easy peasy for lazy people like me.

outdated liao this.. buy the one from buffalo.. cheaper.. and has both pressure cook and air frying capability

a must i would say.. especially if you air fry things which doesn't have natural FAT like fries.. you need this spray.. else the fries will not taste good at all.

tak sedap la kalau masak fast food

kentang jadi dry, rasa pun lain

goreng for the win

get this instead!
Buffalo Toros 6l Electrical Pressure Cooker + Crisp Lid

when you say it's dry.. very obvious

1) it's either you skip the defrost step
2) you did not spray some oil in it

i did those mistakes when i first started using air fryer when phillips launch their first model back in 2012/2013? since then i have been using air fryer only. now CUBIE XL though.

PS: i don't goreng food at home too.. uses too much oil - waste too much oil - and my apartment will stink as a result.

I just dont like the size of the one you show. A bit too small, unless you bujang.

I have one buffalo brand, it is now relegated to just two things, chicken wings and chicken chop. And occasionally some baking.

any brand oso nvm just becareful the paint in the basket will peel off in longer run which i tink is hazardous

i disagree. Chicken takes less time (almost half the time) to cook in air fryer so less moisture lost compared to oven.

I bought cap ayam RM188 fryer. Use daily more that 5 years, still working well.

like some say, you need to buy the oil spray in order for it not to be too dry. but that spray then is an added cost. but the good thing is, you put in, set time and cal walk away rather than need to watch over it like traditional frying.

but i still think they dont taste as good. and see the design, some can be difficult to wash. yeah they do sell those non stick paper etc, but end up more and more thing in your kitchen

+1

If cant see the food very difficult to cook using air fryer if you don't remember the settings for every different food

oven are hard to clean and this is oven design.

With pull out tray, you can soak it in water also no problem.

I uses less oil. Oil good or bad?

i use khind 2500, cheap and with window so i can see whats happening inside. use nearly daily and much faster.

I still have traditional oven but now not using.

as mentioned by many get air sprayer to make your food tastier and less dry.

oil makes food tasty. Use a lot or less, up to you.

i have one AF as well..

since need to spray oil, then too much hassle. i just deep fried fries and wallah less than 5mins..

yes..the pros less oil vs many oil used.

Coat food with oil before frying to avoid becoming dry.

just go for it.
worth it

OK. Bought early gen philips one (no digital, all manual dials). Easy for meal prep since we are working parent and busy kids. Every morning wake up just pop whatever for kids lunches. They know how to reheat. Even in MCO they still prefer their meals to be air fryer prepared

Clean up a bit leceh lah - i just threw mine into dishwasher once or twice a week. Once in a while have to "steam clean" - its in the instructions.

i have 1 of the similar design at home thats why i suggested it

its actually easy to clean if you ignore the heating element, which is on the top, usually things dont go to the top, unless you put wrong thing into the fryer, ie powder.

cause when fryer start, air will circulate, if you put something with alot of powder, then they might blow upwards, then its your problem, like putting iron into washing machine, dont blame the washing machine go kaboom.

liquid or oil will just drip downwards, usually you have a tray at very bottom to collect oil, all you need is wash that frequently, and sometimes wipe the internal (leave the heating element on top untouched), and do not do it while its hot, its alot easier compare to use oil to deep fry, ALOT EASIER.

that's only a problem when you don't cook often! hahahaha
if you use them daily like i do.. i don't even need to follow their manual or guide anymore.

but how you keep your oil/left over oil? don't tell me you pour all of it into the basin every time you deep fry something ah.

storing left over oil is something from the past unless you still do them but definitely not for me.

Bought airfyer 7 years ago, still using it today.

Oven cook taste better.

Airfyer does contribute to healthy eating because it drains out any fats or oil.

Airfryer is good for if you dont want to waste time but it doesnt taste as good when deep frying.

Make sure you have good circulation in the house otherwise you will have a smog.

The net is kind hard to clean so make sure you have tin foils.

Make sure to clean and check it regularly because small cockroaches can get into it and they love leftover oil.

for years never clean the oven because it's messy to clean. Grim got stuck to all the walls. So I prefer the pull out tray. Squeeze some detergent and water and let it soak. Much easier.

well if you able to know if the food is cooked or not without looking at it, then go ahead, im not a pro, i prefer to see whats happening than just guess

that's why i say just get the one from buffalo.. i think it will solve the mentioned problem. Like it or not the phillips air fryer you have to clean the top over time.. both the basket and the top is a pain for cleaning anyway that's why i'm using cubie XL at the moment it's an ALL in one. Only drawback is.. using an air fryer it needed less time... salmon for instance.. 22 minutes vs 15 minutes. and cubie i need to preheat few more mins there

https://www.lazada.com.my/products/buffalo-...zVvXEl&search=1

used cooking oil rm1.50/kg

Start with the preset and soon you know what food works well and what don't and for how long. Chicken and pork works well. You should try the crispy skinned roasted pork etc. Fish, traditional frying with oil still far better. For big whole chicken roasting, still need the oven.

Good for reheat. Can make soggy biscuits back to original state.

the problem is with how do you take care of the left over oil? if you pouring it into the basin.. i suggest you to stop doing that.. in a long run it will clog up the pipe and give you more trouble..

PS: don't pour oil in especially when it's hot.. hot oil + cold water it will form layers of unwanted fat much quicker.

Definitely worth it, it's a life changer for lazy people like me. It encourages healthy eating too(since no dry with oil)

if you dont mind your foods being dry and lazy in cooking, then buy air fryer.

seriously ovens have more variety in cooking way.

Bagus sebab tak perlu menunggu depan kuali semasa menggoreng french fries, nuggets,dll. Letak dlm air frier, set timer, kemudian boleh blah dan buat kerja masing2.. Bila air frier dah berbunyi, dah boleh makan fries, dll.

How many recipe you have? You remember each setting for each of them?

I only remember fries and nugget so far, use air fryer for one month

Still will need experiment with the settings everytime you cook something else you never cook

you 2 days late bero, 7.7 sale got perysmith air fryer rm168 only.

i boughted one

Sesuai untuk orang masak suka tinggal tinggal.
Put marinated chicken inside, then leave it.. u can go shower, siap2 nak pergi kerja. After 20 min, it should be ready.

The food tend to be dryer, but wrap your food in aluminium foil will solve the problem.

it's not about recipe but the meat you gonna cook with..

i'm using air fryer but it's a Panasonic Cubie hence it differs to the amount of time needed in a phillips air fryer.

to start off with the basic.. pretty simple..
salmon 22 minutes on my air fryer. (15 on phillips air fryer if i'm not mistaken)
chicken 25-28 minutes depending on how big piece of a chicken you putting in ya.. whole chicken crank it up to 30-33 (18-22 minutes on phillips air fryer)
beef, after pan seared 3-4 minutes then pop it into your cubie for approx 8 minutes. (you can't air fry your beef.. hahaha)

Once you get the basic of how long it needs to cook your meat/veg you really no longer need to worry about the menu/option/setting.
PS: when i first started using the phillips air fryer.. it's the analog menu where i can control only the timing nia.. like a countdown timer. haha

ok je
senang kan keja
and guna less minyak to goreng2

sting ray, sotong yummmmmm

buy je..

mine used for 4 years already..masuk chicken/nuggets/wedges..set timer, done..no need to fight with hot oil splashing

Just get oven..

cuz air fryer is just a glorified oven

Halogen Turbo Convection Oven is similar to Air Fryer right?

According to review Philips tak hangit like typical normal brand

TEFAL amazing.

only if u use frequent enough and felt its quite a daily thing, u upgrade to a four digit one like Phillips

If single, airfryer good la. If u got family dy, i think you'll be keeping it in the cabinets after few usage

I was like you doubting the air fryer. So i just got mine from Astro Go Shop last week. Khind. RM179. Paid RM139 after discounts & points.

Been using it for a week. No major frying yet just hotdogs/nuggets/heating up stuffs. Its true abt the crispiness/ extra oil that comes out. So thats good.
Its also true that the food texture is drier.

Overall would reckon, start with a cheap one just to get the feel of it. Once dah pro then upgrade it in a year or two.

few months ago ; bought this brand ..so far quite good

https://shopee.com.my/PHILIPS-HD9270-XL-DIG...5696.6562070094

and new design also


Rules of thumb for air fryer ..always get latest release of product..sometime new mid range is better than older gen high end

What about flipping? Need flip how many time if cook salmon in 20 minutes?

different and slow ..last time use this to do siew yok ..in the end have to find something to "jack up" the siew yok to make it closer to the heat

So true. Even the large air fryer only can cook nuggets for 2 person max

If many people need to cook and wait cook and wait cook and wait

brah you don't need to flip it or anything.. it's not a pan where you have to cook both sides.. the air fryer circulates the heat which evenly cooks the meat on all side.

Used to have this one too. I think this is old tech, it heat the air but doesn't increase the pressure

Longer time cooking but a lot bigger, can cook a lot more portion

air fryer is ok, more towards convenience for cooking frozen foods like nuggets, fries, sausages, etc
i suggest you take the one that's just simple temperature and timer ones. they're much harder to spoil compared to computerized stuffs.
once you know the time/temperature, you can just plop in some nuggets/fries, take a bath or do whatever, and then come back it's ready to eat.

more portion is because of bigger container only

shud have bought sooner

now can just put in nugget/hotdog, then fap to riley reid, come back got nugget panas2 waitting

Bigger surface area than most air fryer

Basically conventional oven is already air fryer all along

Ye ke? Later I try ...

it's jes a heating element with a fan on top blowing hot wind down on ur food

Just make sure buy bigger one if you plan to cook big portion or bigger item.

Yea, just the design is different, it's all a marketing gimmick.

I recently bought one, now kinda regret it after reading this thread, should have gotten something with glass so can see inside.

use only for chicken/lamb/sausage/pizza
spray with oil if u want extra crispy/tone

negative part is difficult to wash

air fryer, paling senang .. pasang satu fan + beberapa heat coil.. siap

Syukur /k banyak kaya raya still have money to buy air fryer and nuggets/ayam/aluminum foil dab.

semua bagus becos mostly made from china

bought the philip air fryer with multiple accessories, during huge promo sales at Harvey Norman (i always monitor price, so at times HN can be very cheap)

best deal ever

it cook more evenly compared to the old brandless air fryer and the accessories allow me to make cake/pizza/everything else

bookmark

veli good. if dont like dry, sapu oil a bit on food. it will become crisp. more energy efficient than oven
