    Cooking More Than French Fries in the Philips Airfryer

    By 493 Comments

    I received the product below to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

    HD9220_40_01BLACK_BASIS
    This past month I introduced my family to the Philips Airfryer. I was challenged to cook everyday using the Philips Airfryer as part of the Home30 Challenge. I admit we do eat out a lot whether it be take out or at a restaurant because we are constantly on the go. I was skeptical too thinking I could cook that many meals in an airfryer. I mean other than french fries, what else could you really cook in an airfryer, right? Well boy I was wrong and I can proudly say the Philips Airfryer has earned some real estate on my kitchen counter. I have tried out many small kitchen appliances but usually I give up on them because they are complicated to use, clean or bulky. The Philips Airfryer is none of those things. It is a lightweight product that is easy to use and not an eyesore on the counter.

    So other than french fries there is so much that can be cooked in the Philips Airfryer. Between the recipe book (thats included) and online I have found so many recipes and I have even thrown food in there myself and it has all come out great!

    Some of the meals I have cooked include:

    Tater tots

    phillips airfryer 4

    Individual pizzas on a tortilla

    phillips airfryer 5

    phillips airfryer 6

    phillips airfryer 7

    Sausage and Peppers

    phillips airfryer 9

    phillips airfryer 11

    Grilled Cheese

    Some of the reasons I love my Philips Airfryer:

    • Seriously super easy to use. Just plug it in and set the temperature. It will start by preheating. It even has a timer you can set right on it.

    • It is so versatile. From various meats to fish to dessert and even pizza, you can cook so much inside of it!
    • It is quite big inside because of the dual layer capacity. I fit enough tater tots for my whole family and I was able to cook two sandwiches and pizzas at a time.
    • It cooks quickly. Because of the Rapid Air Technology it circulates hot air with speed and precision. I think the most I had to cook something was about 12 minutes but other things only took 5-7 minutes.

    • It doesn’t heat up my kitchen like my stove would.
    • I don’t have to baby my food. No more standing at the stove stirring dishes or worrying about uneven cooking.
    • It is great when you just need an extra hand. One night I was cooking meatloaf in the oven and a vegetable in the microwave, it was great to have the Philips Airfryer on hand to cook tater tots for my kids at the same time.
    • Easy to clean, either hand wash or throw in the dishwasher.
    • There is even an app with more recipes on the Play store and iTunes

    I would definitely recommend this Airfryer to anyone trying to cook more at home who needs quick and easy but still good. Between all the various meals I cook a day for my different family members there is something I could cook everyday in this appliance.

    BUY IT:  Check out the Philips Airfryer from the Philips website for $349.

      We bought a Philips air fryer primarily to cook frozen breaded okra and frozen breaded shrimp, which we previously cooked in a deep fryer. We just tried okra and it did not turn out well. The flour coating was dry. I suspect there may be a way to add a small amount of oil to the okra before cooking that would work. I would appreciate any advice. We haven’t tried the breaded shrimp yet but I anticipate the same results.

      All the tests look pretty decent except for the grilled cheese that looks like it is crumbling apart, but still look edible.
      I would love one of these for health reasons, but the price is too high right now.
      Would definitely get when when the tech gets cheaper.

      I think I would try something crispy like fries or a fried pie, just to see how crispy it can cook things! or a doughnut!

      I would probably be boring and start with french fries as I learn it. Then I would google things to cook in an air fryer to learn more things to cook. TY!

      I would make Seasoned Potato Wedges in this. I love that it does require oil. I think the air fryer is a much healthier way of cooking!!

      I would have a hard time not just going crazy with as many grilled cheese options as I could. Different cheeses, different breads, add more deliciousness like bacon or apple or tomatoes or…mmmmm

      Probably some broccoli and cheese bites! They don’t turn out that well in a microwave, I’d love to try them in another way!

      I would probably cook fried okra first. I love it but usually only get it at restaurants. I’d love to make it at home, as well as many other things like tater tots. I usually bake mine and it’s just not the same.

      Let’s see, what tops our list of “fried” food we lust for the most?

      Potatoes… Natch (homemade Tater Tots)
      CALAMARI!
      Fish Fillets (like “Fish & Chip size)
      Chicken Tenders

      to name just a few off the top of my head…

      I would love to use the Philips Airfryer to make yucca fritters. It looks like it would be much less messy that frying them in oil.

      I’d try some chicken legs, precooked like we do for grilling. I bet this thing would make some awesome chicken with bbq put on right at the end. Oh my gosh, this looks like it would be amazing for a college dorm too! Wonder if they can use there. Hmm…

      I know the title of this post is “Cooking More than French Fries” but I think the first thing I’d make with the Philips AirFryer would be French fries! I’m also really interested to see how baked goods would come out in it. And chicken, and who knows what else!

      I would do french fries first! My kids love them with burgers or fish filets so they are on the menu often. I would love not having to put the oven on or try to balance two different foods in the oven at the same time.
