NB 1 Just be aware that baking (frying) vegetables may raise the GI e.g. as for sweet potato. (as with other vegetables)

The way we cook can change the GI of food e.g. The GI of a 150g sweet potato, boiled with its skin for 30 minutes, is 46. That number rises to 94 if the same sweet potato is baked for 45 minutes.

AIRFRYER RECIPES

ROSEMARY CHICKEN USING AIRFRYER
Serves 2 persons

INGREDIENTS
(A) For marinating the chicken

1 tsp ginger, minced
1 tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tbsp. olive oil

(B) For the sauce
1/2 lemon, cut in wedges with skin
15g fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tbsp. oyster sauce

INSTRUCTIONS
1) Marinate ingredients in (A) together for at least 30 min. Chill in refrigerator while marinating.

Prepare the marination ingredients

Pour over the chicken and marinate for 30 min. (Overnight is best)

2) After 30 min, preheat air fryer 200 degrees C for 3 min.

3) Transfer the chicken (with the marinate) into a baking pan. Bake in air fryer at 200 degrees for 6 min.

4) Meanwhile, prepare the sauces. Mix ingredients in (B) except the lemon wedges together.

Total time:46 mins
INGREDIENTS
Philips Airfryer
1 Kilo Fresh Cauliflower
150g Cheddar Cheese
100ml Bread Crumbs
15ml Oats
1 Large Egg
100g Onion (peeled and thinly diced)
1Tsp Garlic Puree
1Tsp Parsley
1Tsp Chives
1Tsp Oregano

INSTRUCTIONS
Chop your cauliflower up into florets and place it into your soup maker and steam it for 20 minutes with some water.
While the cauliflower is cooking prepare your bread crumbs. Mix together in a bowl your coconut, oats and bread crumbs. In another bowl have your egg, beaten ready for when you bread crumb your tater tots.
When your cauliflower is cooked, drain it and place it back in your soup maker with the salt, pepper and garlic puree. Blend until it resembles bread crumbs. Place it into a clean tea towel and squeeze it for a few minutes until you have drained out the water.
Place the cauliflower in a mixing bowl with the onion and the rest of the herbs and the cheese and mix well. Shape into tater tots and then roll in the bread crumbs.
Place in the Airfryer for 6 minutes at 180c followed by a further 10 minutes at 200c or until hot in the middle and nice and crispy on the outside.
Notes
I use measuring cups when I am making bread crumbs because then it is so much easier to measure into your dish the quantities. You can usually get some nice ones at a cheap pound shop.

AIR FRYER FIVE CHEESE PULL APART BREAD

AIR FRYER FIVE CHEESE PULL APART BREAD

Author:
RecipeThis.com
Serves:2
Prep time:15 mins
Cook time:4 mins
Total time:19 mins
INGREDIENTS
Philips Airfryer
1 Large Bread Loaf
100g olive oil
2Tsp Garlic Puree
30g Cheddar Cheese
30g Goats Cheese
30g Mozzarella Cheese
30g Soft Cheese
30g Edam Cheese
2Tsp Chives
Salt & Pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Grate your hard cheese into four different piles and put to one side.
In a saucepan melt the butter on a medium heat. Add the chives, salt and pepper and the garlic. Cook for a further 2 minutes and mix well. Put to one side.
Using a good quality bread knife create little slits into your bread. In each of the little slit wholes cover with garlic butter until you have done them all. Then cover them all with soft cheese in order to give them a lovely creamy taste.
In every other one place a little cheddar and a little goats’ cheese.
Then with those that have not been filled add the Edam and mozzarella.
Place in the Air Fryer for 4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the bread is lovely and warm.
Serve.
Notes
I get the best results from using a really soft loaf of ciabatta. You could adapt this recipe and use a French stick if you liked. The main objective though is that the bread is lovely and soft so that when it cooks it doesn’t go really hard.
