Innovation and Air Fryers with Acoustic Element
 
Thursday 30 March
 
Air fryers have been all the rage for some time now and today we’re cooking with one and giving one lucky viewer the chance to win their very own air fryer!
 
We’re joined by the musical duo, Acoustic Element, made up of Violinist Callen Petersen and Guitarist Jody Abel. They perform Billie Eilish's 'Bad Guy' & a medley of 'Flowers/I Will Survive'.
 
Juicy lamb chops cooked until the fat is crispy is one of life’s simplest pleasures. Our Greek Style Air Fryer Lamb Chops with Tzatziki take less than 10 minutes to whip up! Pro tip: always pre-heat your air fryer to get the most evenly cooked final result.
 
Our Cranberry and Apple Air Fryer Baked Oats are crispy on the outside and decadently chewy on the inside. Did you know that adding a pinch of salt brings out the nutty, toasty notes of the oats?
 
We test Chef Tumi’s taste buds and knowledge of Tropika flavours in a Tropika Smoooth Taste Challenge. This is a fun game that you could recreate at home!
 
Tumi’s Air Fried Korean-Style Chicken Wings are coated in a zesty, flavourful glaze, with hints of chili, some sweetness and a whole lot of yumminess. Here’s another air fryer tip: don’t overcrowd your air fryer – rather cook your food in batches.
 
Our last recipe is for delicious Air Fried Crumbed Pork Chops with a Crispy Apple Slaw. For extra juicy pork chops, brine them before cooking. This is just soaking them in salted water, to help to prevent moisture loss during cooking (with the added bonus of tenderizing the meat).
 
Tune in to win an air fryer from the comfort of your couch! It’s as easy as snapping a selfie of you watching Afternoon Express and sharing it under the competition post using the hashtag #AfternoonExpress.
