Sundays aren’t the only day of the week that’s made for roast dinners, particularly when the dedicated national day for the British meal falls on a Saturday.<\/p>\n

When the time comes to cooking one, Britons can swap their oven for an energy-efficient air fryer instead, according to one chef.<\/p>\n

Renowned for their low running costs and speed for cooking food, Casey Bumpsteed, an experienced chef and food stylist at Ceramic Cookware Review suggested utilising the air fryer for a cheap Sunday lunch shortcut.<\/p>\n

Speaking previously to Express.co.uk, she said: “I love the versatility of air fryers, and over the years, I’ve become quite adept at leveraging this nifty device to create mouthwatering meals with ease and efficiency.<\/p>\n

\u201cPreparing an entire roast dinner in an air fryer may sound a bit challenging, but it’s indeed quite manageable with the right approach.”<\/p>\n

While the cooking itself is an important part of the process, so is the preparation. And according to Casey, the meat should be a priority.<\/p>\n

She claimed: \u201cThe secret to a perfect air-fried roast dinner lies in its heart – the chicken. I recommend a simple rub of fresh herbs, salt, and pepper before popping the bird into the preheated air fryer.\u201d<\/p>\n

This should then be cooked for around one hour with 15-minute intervals throughout to turn the chicken. Once cooked, the juices should run clear.<\/p>\n

When it comes to the vegetables, these should be heavily seasoned and prepared while the meat cooks.<\/p>\n

Casey recommended a simple blend of olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic to caramelise the greens as they cook. Fry them in the appliance at 180C for just 15 minutes and finish with a drizzle of honey or syrup, as suggested by the chef.<\/p>\n

Roast potatoes, the star of the show for many, are equally as reliant on good preparation for impressive results.<\/p>\n

The chef said: \u201cWhat’s a roast dinner without those crispy, golden-brown roast potatoes? The air fryer excels in delivering this favourite. I use a light dusting of flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder on drained tinned potatoes. A quick mix ensures they are well-coated before they go into the fryer.”<\/p>\n

Just 20 minutes is enough to cook the spuds at 195C, and they\u2019ll \u201crival any traditional oven-baked version”, according to Casey.<\/p>\n
