It's about time to start thinking about Christmas dinner prep. Where to get the turkey from, how many pigs in blankets you need, if anyone will bother eating the Christmas pudding apart from you.
In the past, managing the oven with all the bits to cook was quite a stressful business. In response to this age-old problem, the modern cook is now turning to air fryers to make Christmas cooking a breeze.
Indeed, new research conducted by Ninja has revealed that 67% of people admit they’ll be using their air fryer more for Christmas dinners this year, with millennials coming on top for Christmas Day air frying – as almost half plan to use theirs this festive season. The BBC has plenty of air fryer Christmas recipes to peruse, such as roast turkey breast, sprouts, cauliflower cheese and more.
