 If you love your potato chips but worry about the ill effects of deep fried foods on your health, nowadays, there is a practical solution for you. And if this sounds like hot air, it’s probably because it is! Indeed, instead of cooking your chips in a deep fryer, you could cook them in what is called an air fryer which requires little or no oil by making use of rapid hot air circulation.  

An air fryer unit usually has one or more internal heating elements, a detachable cooking basket that holds the food while it's air fried, a removable pan that contains the cooking basket and collects drippings, and appropriate mechanisms to set the cooking temperature as well as the timer. Both the basket and the pan can easily be separated from the main body and washed in a dishwasher or cleaned by hand. Note that though these air fryers do not require oil,  for perfect results it is recommended to sprinkle a tiny bit of oil (no more that a spoonful) on the foods to be fried. A typical air fryer is shown in the picture. 

Using an air fryer presents a number of advantages:
  • Because little or no oil is used, the resulting fries will have less than 3% fat as opposed to more than 15% fat for the traditional deep fried chips, which represents 80% less fat! This will of course allow you to eat chips more often without having to worry too much about your health
  • Air fryers can be used not just for making chips, but because of the various temperature settings and programmable cooking times they allow, one could also grill, roast, and even bake. 
  • Because only very little amounts of oil should be used, you could experiment with various gourmet oils (such as olive oil, walnut oil, peanut oil, etc.) that would be too expensive to use for deep frying, resulting in chips with varied flavors.
  • Because they require very little or no oil, air fryers generate much less cooking odor than traditional deep fryers.
  • Air fryers are safer to use than regular deep fryers since there is no boiling oil, and they are usually equipped with cool-to-the-touch handles that allow handling without any danger of burning the fingers.
  • They are very easy to clean as the removable parts (the pan and the basket) can be easily washed in the dishwasher.

  • Only the Philips air fryers come with the buit-in fat reduction technolgy.
  • Only GoWISE GW22731, Philips HD9650 and New House Kitchen air fryers have digital controls with LCD screens for setting the timer and the cooking temperature.

  • Only the New House Kitchen and the Philips air fryers have a 60-minute timers (the GoWISE USA air fryer has a 30-minute timer).
