Air Fryers Forget French fries, chunky chips are quintessentially British, and home-made ones, crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy to taste, are hard to beat. Thankfully, we’ve moved on from the days of the chip pan full of oil, and the new generation of air fryers are everything you would expect them to be – safe, clean and ultra-efficient. You no longer have to rely solely on deep fat fryers for perfect chips; low-fat air fryers can achieve equally tasty – but healthier – results. At Lakeland, you’ll find an amazing range of air fryer ovens and air fryer accessories to take your home cooking to the next level. We’re talking everything from small air fryers for smaller portions of fried food to dual basket air fryers to cook two different types of food at once. So, what are you waiting for? This is a classic homemade staple, made even better. What can you cook in an air fryer? Although they do make the best golden chips – and we mean the best – the air fryer is so much more than just a mere chip fryer. It’s great for cooking all kinds of foods in a healthier, lighter way. From pork chops and crispy duck, to fish fillets, juicy chicken breasts, sizzling steaks and even tarts and cupcakes. If you’re struggling for inspiration, our air fryer cookbook and guide to air frying will come in handy! Are air fryers healthy? Whilst all electric fryers are quick and efficient, you’ll find that air fryers use significantly less oil due to their ability to circulate hot air around the fryer. This can reduce the fat content of our favourite foods such as chips to as little as 3%. Some fryers can be used for a variety of cooking tasks from risottos to curries, meaning they can quickly become an essential multi-functional small kitchen appliance. Not only does cooking with less oil make it healthier for our diet, but cutting down on oil is also great for the environment. And, it means you don’t have the hassle of disposing of oil after cooking and it makes cleaning your air fryer easy. Space-saving frying The Lakeland Digital Compact Air Fryer cooks crispy golden fries (and more) with barely a drop of oil and without taking over your whole kitchen. The small footprint will free up worktop space for other food prep tasks, while your chips, chicken, steak or scampi cook away inside. And it doesn’t skimp on portion sizes either – with a 1.6-litre working capacity, it’s plenty big enough to cook more than enough chips for two. Twice the frying fun Wouldn’t it be great if you could air fry two different kinds of food at the same time without buying two separate machines? Well now you can. As the name suggests, both our 8L Dual Basket Air Fryer and 8L Easy-View Dual Basket Air Fryer have two baskets, each with an independent heating element. This clever dual basket design means you can cook two things at different temperatures at the same time, and programme their cooking cycles to finish at different times – or at the same time, if you prefer. Which is the best air fryer? It’s really down to personal preference. If you’re looking to save space, we’d recommend our Lakeland Digital Compact Air Fryer. But if you want to cook as much food as possible, then why not try the Lakeland Dual Air Fryer, an Instant Air Fryer, or a Ninja Air Fryer with two baskets, all able to cook two different types of food in each of the independent cooking drawers? And if you want to go one step further, our Lakeland Dual Basket Air Fryer with Easy View cooking windows lets you keep an eye on your food while it cooks to make sure it’s cooked to perfection.
