Air fryers are becoming increasingly popular because they produce fried foods very much like the old-fashioned deep-fried foods we all love.
Benefits:
- cook food with less oil and fewer calories;
- cook food with fewer calories;
- more energy-efficient than traditional ovens
- cook food faster;
- can cook a variety of foods with a crunchy, crispy exterior, such as chicken wings, vegetables, and french fries;
- use significantly less oil than deep-fat fryers;
- food cooked using an air fryer is substantially lower in fat making air frying a healthier alternative to deep frying;
- Air frying can also help with weight loss because air fryers use less oil, they can help reduce calorie intake and promote weight loss.
Disadvantages of air fryers:
- smaller than a regular oven;
- don’t cook all vegetables evenly;
- can take up a lot of counter or storage space;
- can be expensive;
- steam air fryers produce results in the build-up of fatty acids. After a few frying sessions, cooking oils break down separately into water and fat. Hence, disposal and replacement of oil can become tricky.
