Do you like the taste of fried foods, but you deny yourself them for health reasons? You don't have to anymore! With people like you in mind, fat-free fryers were created - modern devices in which you can prepare your favorite dishes without fat. Don't worry - the taste will be exactly the same as their counterparts from the pan!

 What is a fat-free fryer?

 Are you wondering how it is possible to prepare fried foods, which are characterized by both crispiness and a specific note of flavor, without a gram of fat? Can you achieve the same effect without oil, butter or lard? For many years, it seemed impossible, and fries, doughnuts or nuggets were treated as a guilty pleasure - food for special occasions, paid for by the feeling that you were letting yourself down and not taking care of your health. Fortunately, technology has found a solution: a fat-free fryer. This is a device that allows you to prepare healthy – and delicious – versions of fatty dishes.

 Low-fat fryer – how does it work?

 The mechanism of operation of a fat-free fryer is simple – instead of fat, hot air is used. To prepare a dish in this way, first place the product you want to fry in the fryer bowl. Then turn on the device and set the appropriate program. The air inside is heated to a very high temperature and it acts on the fries or meat, giving a taste effect almost identical to that after frying: the dishes are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

 The name of the device can be misleading, because in a low-fat fryer you can successfully prepare not only potato fries, but also many other products: seafood, fish, meat, sweet potatoes, celery and other vegetables. The device is also great for baking ready-made dishes, such as dumplings or croquettes, and even for defrosting.

 Fat-free fryer – what to look for?

 For a fryer to serve you for a really long time, it is worth considering the choice of model carefully and knowing which features of the device are key. The basic parameter to consider should be the power, because it determines, on the one hand, the heating speed, and on the other – the operating time. The higher the power, the faster the device heats up and the longer it can operate without interruption. A low-fat fryer intended for use at home should have 1200-1300 W. The time needed to process dishes is also influenced by the temperature. It is important that it can be adjusted – for some dishes, a relatively low value of less than 100°C is enough, while others need up to 200°C.

 It is also worth paying attention to the capacity. If you plan to prepare large portions of food at once, be sure to choose a fryer with a large bowl that can hold more portions. A very useful function is the timer. Thanks to it, you can set the device for a specific operating time and not worry that the products placed in it will burn or dry out without supervision.
