The Actifry 2in1 is really great for dishes that burn easily and therefore much need to be stirred. In addition, the preparation of meat is a simple.
Currently I test yet div. Courts. Most excited we are far from the French and the flesh. The fries are crispy, golden brown and taste really nice flavourful. They even look better than pre-fried fries. My friend has also prepared frozen fries in the Acti. But they were somehow not soooo great. (I think he has as yet properly poured oil, which of course he does not admit). Combine this with a steak and cherry tomatoes are for about 6 minutes on the grill, you have a really great dish! The meat is super juicy and not a bit tough. I have so never hammer out in the pan.
We also have a full breakfast in the Acti prepared. Below scrambled eggs and bacon on the plate and rolls. That was really very good! Or rum differently. Below baking bread and cook on the grill plate fried eggs with bacon and cheese. (Go especially great for my boyfriend, because now he can prepare his breakfast and incidentally quite fix shower) The whole procedure takes only about 5 minutes. In time, the pan on the stove would have been just hot. Nevertheless, the eggs are completely even (without goo somewhere) and the bacon is crisp.
Also, I've cooked in the Acti strawberry compote. While this took a little (about 15 min.) But the result was then all the better! No more overcooked fruit, but gently heated and boiled berries.
Unfortunately, the rice pudding, I wanted to cook so nothing. I thought, as in the recipe book is a recipe for risotto, rice pudding would have to work just as. Perhaps it was also due to the small amount of milk (only 500ml). Because the rice accumulated in front of the paddle and was only pushed through the machine, instead of being stirred. Thus, the rice on burned after a short time from the top. So I got the rice tipped into a pot and continue cooking on the stove.
Very good can also prepare spring rolls. Just a bit of vegetables and chicken meat to cooking tray and cook and stir together and then wrapping them in paper and tear off the griddle. A super-fast and super tasty dish! Incidentally, I also have a few packages with strawberry compote and banana filled and placed in the unit. This variant came to super.
Finally, my beloved chili con carne. Again, this could be very quick and easy to prepare in the Acti. However, you should make sure to give extra fluid in the cooking container, otherwise the whole law can be dry quickly.
If I still remember that the device is running with only "1150 Watts, it is compared to my already come into the years stove also really low in energy consumption.
Unfortunately, I have no complaints, two little things on the machine. This is firstly the size. Sure, you can not expect a machine that has a lot of capacity and is yet small. But I had yet imagined a little less space. On the other hand paddle and cooking containers are somewhat difficult to clean. There are some corners and grooves, where especially the somewhat more fluid foods set very well in it.
CONCLUSION: For our small budget the purchase of the machine was just the ticket! As we travel a lot, fast and gentle preparation of the food is very important to us. Since the machine almost works by itself, you can use the time to do other things at home or sometimes high rise by the feet ...
