I’m also the type of person that likes to press buttons without instructions, but the Salter Dual Air Fryer has several auto cooking functions – like different meats, muffins, fish, chips, and vegetables – that will help you select the right temperature and time for your chosen dish. If you’re unsure of the buttons (and the little images they represent) and it’s too much choice, I recommend selecting manual cook and winging it with your own time and temperature. Always go lower and shorter than you need. Any negatives? Out of the box, I was taken away by the size of the Salter EK4548 Dual Air Fryer. I was slightly worried that it wouldn’t fit between my kitchen counter and cupboards, but it ended up being ok. It’s a consideration for a smaller kitchen, though. Not only does an air fryer promise to cut down your cooking time, but it does so with as little need for oil as possible. So you can still achieve that deep-fried effect without the unhealthy aftertaste. Each preset automatically sets the time and temperature depending on the food. Additionally, the instructions detail the preset functions’ temperatures and times to give you a recommendation for each of the foods.

With an impressive 8.2 litre capacity across the two drawers, this air fryer offers multifunctional cooking abilities including dehydrating, reheating, and baking. As well as independent cooking, you can sync and match cook so that both cooking compartments are ready at the same time. I did find this to be slightly temperamental. Sometimes there was a slight delay when hitting the buttons, which meant I had to adjust the temperature and time several times before reaching the correct figures. Match cook’ sets both cooking compartments to the temperature and time if you’re cooking the same food across both baskets. This is handy if you’ve got lots of friends coming around and want to cook up large portions of food without the need to batch cook. With over 15 fryers to choose from, we took the brand’s most popular air fryer – the EK4548 Dual – for a test drive. With a 60 minute timer it ’s simple and convenient to use, this air fryer is complete with a stylish sensor touch control LED display and 12 cooking functions. A brilliant alternative to a deep fat frying, this 1600W air fryer has an adjustable temperature control up to 200°C and has two removable baskets for independent cooking

Salter Dual Cook Pro air fryer review - Reviews | BBC Good Food

Uses little or no oil – The fantastic Salter 8.2L dual cook pro air fryer is a healthy way to cook your favourite foods using little to no oil. In use, this fryer is reasonably versatile, producing decent results across a range of foods. I used it first to cook frozen chips and Quorn nuggets. The latter were perfect, but the former could have done with more crisping, despite having had 20 minutes at the maximum 200℃. As I couldn’t raise the temperature, I cooked further batches a little longer, and was rewarded with better results. Versatile– With adjustable temperature control as well as pause and resume cooking functions, cook a huge range of different foods. The Salter Dual Air is much like any other air fryer to use, although there’s some added complexity given that you need to set programmes for each basket. Like many other air fryers, it offers a battery of preset modes for various food types. While these might be useful once you come to learn them, I generally found it easier to use the manual mode to dial up the temperature and time I wanted. The Dual Air did a marvellous job of roasting some new potatoes to produce rough and ready homemade wedges. I simply cut them in half, tossed them in olive oil, and cooked them at full power for 18 minutes – my children loved the end result. Potatoes and sweetcorn by Salter Dual Air. Sausages cooked in Salter AerogrillKitchen countertop space is a precious commodity, so if you’re considering the Salter Dual Air Fryer, be aware of how much space it takes up. It measures 40cm in length, 36.1cm in width, and 32cm in height – that is bigger than your average four-slice toaster. If you already have a microwave, kettle, toaster and perhaps a food blender, you may have to think about where your air fryer will go, or do you have cupboard space for it? An air fryer is essentially a small convection oven, circulating hot air around the food to get that crispy outer layer and fluffy or moist inside. It is also more energy-efficient due to its size and power, compared to heating your kitchen oven. We know that the size and the price of the air fryer may be the deciding factor for many. If you live on your own or have a smaller family, the EK4548 may be considered excessive. Additionally, if your kitchen counter size is limited, this could be impractical.
