Healthy cooking made easy with the Siemens Air Fryer Oven

 Owned by 45% of British households, air fryers have taken the culinary world by storm. Setting a standard for kitchen innovation, the new Siemens iQ700 StudioLine is no exception.

An air fryer is a countertop appliance that uses radiation and convection to circulate superheated air around your food. This combination crisps your food to perfection, whilst using as little oil as possible.

Even if you’re lacking space for the extra gadget, there’s no need to miss out. With an oven like the Siemens iQ700 StudioLine, you can still enjoy an air fryer’s many benefits.

Why are air fryers so popular?

At Thatcham Kitchens, we first saw a huge surge in air fryer sales during the COVID pandemic. As we spent less time eating out and more time preparing meals at home, the appliance became a must-have for convenience and versatility. They require minimal pre-heating, and cook food faster and more evenly compared to traditional methods.

Air fryers also provide plenty of health benefits. They use up to 90% less oil, which supports reduced calorie intake and aids in weight loss. Some studies have even demonstrated how convection heat methods help to preserve nutrients otherwise lost during the cooking process, including vitamin C and protective plant compounds called polyphenols.

Simplified cleaning is another major plus. With non-stick drawers and dishwasher-safe parts, they’re a practical solution for busy households who lack the time to clean pots, pans and oven trays.

  • 1. Always pre-heat - Although air fryers require minimal pre-heating time compared to traditional ovens, this step is still important for achieving consistent cooking results.
  • 2. Avoid overcrowding - Overcrowding can block air flow and lead to uneven cooking. For the best results, you should also spread your food into a single, even layer.
  • 3. Shake or turn food - For items like french fries, chicken wings or vegetable crisps, shaking the basket halfway through cooking will help produce even crispiness.
  • 4. Clean regularly - Air fryers need to be cleaned more regularly than a standard oven. In fact, the basket and tray should be cleaned after each use.
