Despite several negative reviews I bought the Actifry. First, the basic model and then some time later when the family came out of this very model. Since then, both with me several times a week in service and I want never to miss more. First, the device: The Family is in all respects a significant improvement, not only because the quantities may be greater in it, but because it has the better use and the timer the frying process also turns off. She turns the fried food even better - obviously the engine is stronger and optimizes the paddle. Included The colorful recipe book which I read once, and besides the Crumble - so the sprinkles - for Apple Crumble nothing what is called there nachgekocht.

I take to the beginning always sunflower oil and aromatisiere the end of cooking with a few splashes of flavored oil, and / or give added spices and salt. The whole family will find the mega-Yummy! A tip: The cooking times are approximate values, if you like it like crispy, are added in each case a few minutes cooking time. And the whole thing is just no fat orgy like the normal fryer, where you then also still have to dispose of the oil. Stews of meat and / or vegetables are also fantastic. I admit now, most of the ingredients from the start into it, and it is fabulously well. Unique is sauce Bolognese. Also everything into it from the beginning and then quite a, cook for two hours - perfect. The constant and also very slow agitation and the very high-quality non-stick coating ensure that nothing burns - a huge advantage. Finally cleaning: Simply all parts in the dishwasher and the Actifry is clean again. It could not be. So if you want to make life in the kitchen easier to want to reduce the fat and oil consumption significantly and even now and then a little fried like, for the Actifry is recommended in my opinion, very.
