Those liners make air circulation much worse, you have to cook longer and you end up losing any benefits over the oven, really. Also, they make it more of a steamer than a fryer. Most airfryers are super easy to clean, too!
EDIT: This video is a testament to the idea that using liners in an airfryer is A Bad Idea.
I find the best trick is after your frying is to fill it atleast half way with water and add a dash of washing up liquid, I do this for 6mins then with a dish brush(keep one just for the air fryer as will get greasy) then rinse and put it back in empty to dry for 4mins, I find this the easiest way, but if you do chicken or fish and it gets in the holes a proper clean is always needed 😀
That why his sausages took longer. All pale on the bottom with a liner. Would been brown and crispy with out it in less time.
It's insane to me how they manage to do everything wrong while "cooking" on this channel.
If I didn't know Mike better, I'd say this was a ploy for comment section algorithm engagement. But I'm more inclined to believe his reason that he is, indeed, just lazy.
@@MiniMackeroni it’s pure laziness and lack of cleaning…
I'm going to spend the entire week screaming 'stop putting the liners in'
Yes I'm pretty sure this whole week is going to be a terrible advert for air fryers because Mike doesn't understand how to use them.
Me too!!!
@@4ndy123 me three
Why? What's the downside
@@HAYDNBBH they operate via convection cooking, putting a liner in restricts the air flow around the food
What I like about Mr Jeavons is his stunning ability to do every week on wrong. And not give a fuck.
Uses air fryer, blocks the air.
Bravo.
I think the greatest was a week on the Keto diet and his first breakfast wasn't even Keto. That was pretty impressive.
@@bobroberts9084 lol yes, and do I recall mayo on the caveman diet? I'm sure it's deliberate.....
A week on “Why liners are pointless in an Air Fryer…”
I’m not gonna be able to watch this week on unless Mike has a revelation half way through, and figures out why his bottoms are soggy…
i think part of the reason the sausages didnt cook in 8 mins is because you used the liners. it stops air circulating to the underside
Not mention it's probably the same with the nanan pizzas. The bottom wasn't crispy mostly likely because of that.
@@fanofpink yup. I don’t get why those liners are even available to sell. Defeats the whole purpose of the AIR in air fryer
@@SimonMetin yes exactly air frying needs air and liner is blocking that.
The air isn’t circulating so th Lents need to be binned? The fat can then drain off and down. Just wipe them with kitchen paper after use ?
@@traceycottrell5643 yea, they are super easy to clean too
The most Jevs thing ever, kick off a week on with no-prep sausages, followed by no-prep sausages! Great to have ya back mate 🍻
OS-Dub, OS-Dub!
Less than a few minutes in and like others, I'm screaming at my T. V. The grid in the pan is to allow the heat to go downwards and bounce back up and cook the other side. You've blocked it off by using a liner. They'd have been done in 8 minutes easy. UPDATE: 3 screams done, 18 to go.
He is useless he is eating near enough raw food why is he pressing drawer 2 when his food is in drawer 1 if anyone listens to him god help them.
As someone thats being using one for over a year its well worth the investment. A tip I would give would be to open it about twice during the heating cycle and give it a shake. The food cooks better rather than just turning it on and walking way till it beeps off. It’s the reason your sausages didn’t have a consistent colour to them
Yes, I always shake the food in it every few mins. Also prevents food sticking.
It's probably a bit late, but a lot of Icelands products now have air fryer cooking times on it. My other half noticed over Xmas when we were cooking party food in the air fryer. I also suggest ditching the liners. Like the others say, it doesn't let the air flow. Also, shaking once or twice during the cycle also helps loads. Specially chips! Love my air fryer has saved a bit on the electric also :)
You can bake in the air frier... so you could do a casserole/hotdish. I also use the rule, 25°f less than the regular oven temp, and aprox 1/2 to 2/3 time.
Don't use liners, the air has to circulate plus they could catch fire blowing around. At least you got the best airfryer.
Depends on the paper and what you fry.. I've used it once or twice for stuff I don't want to fall through to the bottom.. That said I never leave the airfryer I've had food items come out with burned edges so regardless of what I'm making I'm keeping an eye and smelling
@@mullaoslo no, it's just wrong
@@ziggarillo no im telling you it works.. But needs to be heavy enough to keep thr paper down and having the bottom already cooked so like reheating a slice of pizza.. If the bottom is uncooked paper out
@Midtoker Marius I'm on my second one now, literally wore the first one out. Liners impair the function. I use a silicone one occasionally, but only when I can't be bothered with putting the trays straight in the dishwasher ( when my brother comes round for a drink) the result is substandard, but we don't care.
Tip for cooking pizzas in the air fryer. Cut a strip of parchment paper (I’m not sure if you call it that in the UK) the width of the fryer basket and a few inches longer than that on the long side. Place the naan pizza on that and use it as a sling to lower the naan into your AF basket and to lift it out. The few inches of the longer bit become your handles. The parchment paper can withstand the heat of cooking so you can leave it in place while your pizza cooks. I hope this makes sense. Note, other than this use of a sort of liner (the parchment paper sling) I almost never use a liner while cooking in my AF. The air circulation is far better without one and the cleanup isn’t much more for my AF without it.
Hello Joanne 👋….How are you doing ?
Looking forward to this week on, the time saving with the air fryer has been a godsend
That Naan Pizza looks heavenly. I am so going to try it.
Same 🤤My air fryer has the one big, round basket in it so it should be a lot easier to get the pizza in and out.
I was going to get an air fryer, but I have a convection oven which is literally the same thing.
Feels like ages since ya last week on. Buzzing to watch this one hope you are well and had a good christmas and new year i want that exact air fryer too.
Missed your week ons pal, been watching all your passed one’s nice to see a new one 👍🏻
My favorite TH-camr s back! Glad to see you, Mike.
YAY!! Only got a notification today for day 2 :| So glad you uploaded a new week on :D I been thinking about getting an airfryer :) Will know to cook things longer for crispyness & maybe turn things to get even browning if using the liners. Reading the comments is also helpful. Aww Basil
"My sausage exploded" 😂🤣😂🤣 That remark sent me into fervent laughter! 😂🤣
The most challenging part of this is your inability to use an air fry. TAKE OUT THE LINERS
eeeep saw you were using liners and was like 🤨🤨🤨 read the comments and realised I was sane! 😂😂😂
I've missed your ' week on ' more than like lol glad your back .
One gets better results without those pointless liners. They eliminate the circulation which is the main principle upon which an airfryer works... they also reduce the browning levels as the food fails to make direct contact with the hot, metallic surface of the basket.
Air fryers are amazing - I got mine for Christmas in 2021. Most adventurous things I've used it for are a frozen apple pie and meatballs, both of which turned out beautifully. I'll be very interested to see how yours goes this week.
I got the toaster oven/airfryer combo...and its the only thing I use these days....absolutely love it
"Right, that looks awful."
Why I keep coming back over the years
The liners interrupt airflow. It will take longer to cook and the food won't get as crispy. Defeats the purpose.
Ahhhh Mike and Grace are back in the room. Looking forward to this week on
gotta love air fryers, i bought a cheap one for $90 and have had it 3 years now and still going strong. You can cook so much stuff in them!
I love how Basil was just ignoring you haha what a funny cat
Hey, I’ve had the af400 slightly larger version for a few weeks. What I’ve found is that the air fryer is very powerful I have had excellent result sticking to 180 degrees for most things and cooking for longer. The best tips I can give you are to not let liners or foil cover your food I personally use small sheets of parchment paper cut to the size of the crisper tray whereas your liners are folding over your food stopping it browning, you have to flip things often to get an even cooking/browning, for certain foods that you can’t flip like your naan pizza I would preheat the air fryer first so the bottom has a chance to crisp up and lastly I would recommend some racks or silicon baskets. Happy air frying!
Don’t use liners in air fryer I’ve had mine for over a year they are a life saver😊use a strip of tin foil fold it over then place under naan bread etc and use the foil as handle to remove easier without using LINERS
Whenever Mike uses a new device, I just assume he’s doing it wrong
well hes putting lining in an air fryer to stop the air from working so yeah he is doing it wrong
Pizza might benefit from going on without the liner?
As most said it’s an air fryer and you’re basically blocking the air flow with lining paper which beats the point of them.
Perfect timing, just got one for myself!!
Thats a Ninja foodie, Should be Infomercialism
Mike, you somehow look much younger than when I started watching your stuff years ago 😁 I was there for Aspray, glad to be here for air frying!
For my air fryer, I put silicone covers on the bottom but that's just so I can swap between sweet and savoury once before needing to clean
This one probably won't be much of a challenge, still can't wait!
it cant boil water because if you have hot air blowing over the surface of water then it heats up the top layer and it evaporates, the heat doesn't have time to transfer down into the rest of the water so you just evaporate off the water.
Welcome back!
The air can't circulate if you've got plastic parchment liners. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
If he put the liner under the rack, he could still halve his washing up, but things would brown better.
A week on air frying this is gonna be sweet. Hopefully a maybe dessert and snack will be made in there.
Wow what timing lol I literally got brought one for my birthday last week, haven’t used it yet
Literally thought of Mike yesterday. Splendid.
i think the relationship between mike and basil is hilairious. the cat hates him so mike calls him a diva and torments the creature every now and then. so disfunctional lol
I have today, just taken delivery of that exact same model air fryer... Get to try it out.
I think this only works with a liner because it blocks some of the air circulation. I’ve done things like this in mine and all of the lighter items blow around in the fryer. The trade off to using the liner is the crust doesn’t crisp on the bottom and the grease gathers underneath.
I am really looking forward to this week on.i want to see how good these airfries are.good to see you back peace and love 💛
This won’t be a good advert for them if he puts liners in blocking the air flow everyday. If you’re interested to see what they can do check out Sorted food or pro home cooks
@@stevenham1937 thank you for that.peace and love 💛
You shouldn't really be using the liner. The frame sits the food up above so the air can flow!
Always a good day when Mike uploads a video.
I hope you left a scathing review of that so-called UK recipe book
Those liners are stopping the sausages from browning
As many others have said, I wouldn't use the liners, especially as the lift out tray is dishwasher safe, it stops the air circulation and makes things take longer. If you really want to use them then put them in and then put in the tray so the food is sat on metal and the air can circulate but you won't have to wash the main drawer, just the removable plate.
Gald to see a video again. I already missed you Mike
The best thing about the air fryer is that it doesn't have a glass door you can break!
Sausage sandwiches are the bomb! Especially with fresh white bread. I need one NOW!
First step when getting airfryer: Throw out your liners. Either accept that you need to actually wash the container, or don't use it at all. Using liners produces highly inferior food.
Welcome back! Looking forward to this Week On as we've been talking about those contraptions lately. I'm not sold on them yet. We don't eat much snacky food here so I'm hoping you cook some 'proper' meat and veg for 'proper' dinners! By the way, I always stab my sausages and grill them so a lot of the fat is removed, I think it tastes better than a greasy sausage, however, you may disagree!! Did the liners comes with the machine? Give 'em up! See you tomorrow!
the liner prevents the air from circulating properly so you wont get an even cook and it takes way longer. Also wasteful. Try without the liner for better results
I recently got that same model in our house and I'll say I like the convenience and I like how easy it is to clean, but I still miss the taste of deep fried food.
I don't miss cleaning the deep fryer though.
the problem with the 2 drawer version is the area for cooking in each drawer is much smaller so you are resticted in what you can cook. the single drawer has a bigger surface area. I hardly touch the main oven now (oh yeah and lose the liners you get way better results - not that anyone else has said that )
I second what everyone says about not using liners, not only does it let the air flow round but all the grease and fat can drain away leaving food crispy, at the very least put the tray on top of the liner so you only have to clean the tray and still get the draining benefit, also one other vital thing is you have to turn or shake any food that can be turned half way so it cooks evenly.
A sausage sandwich without mustard? Blasphemy!
good to see u Mike
im 15 mins in and losing my mind over these liners who is the air ment to circulate but a cant atop watchin arghhh lol xx
Basil's alive!!!
Air fryers? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Also: you might want to remove the parchment liner you placed on the bottom. Air fryers need the air flow to circulate under the bottom to get all around the food simultaneously.
You've got bloody good in-laws there about £280.
I managed to get the bigger 9ltr one with the knobs dials on for £199. Last June before they went "viral" on the internet
I like to cook the narn for a few minutes, turn over then add the toppings for a nice crispy bottom.
Yay! Our hero is back!
I CUT MY SANDWICH INTO AN AWKWARD CHECKERBOARD PATTERN, THANK YOU FOR ASKING. VALIDATE ME, MR. FAMOUS TH-camR MAN.
This episode is just in time as got my air fryer this week, have ordered an oven to air fryer temp and time conversion chart.
I usually use the oven times for my air fryer, it's generally right, maybe like 10% oonger than it needs
We use naan bread and make BBQ chicken pizzas all the time. It's great when you don't feel like making your own pizza dough. I have an airfryer and don't like it much. We use it for french fries and it just makes them hard as rocks. Works well for tatter tots though.
i have managed to air fry a small 49p 7" pizza (chilled from tesco) ad your own toppings,cook for 9-10 mins and your golden.
I cut my sandwiches with a knife 😂
I love mine. I just wish I could fit more in it. X
Hi Mike, what model is your sir fryer, and don't forget you have to turn your food over halfway through. Ditch the air fryer liners, they slow down the cooking time. Plus you don't have to buy air fryer food, you can cook most things in it, if you know how.
It surely doesnt take a rocket scientist to realise you dont put a liner in air fryer 😂
You can cook a gammon joint in an air fryer. Just 20 mins each side. Just soak it before frying to remove the excess salt. My dad didn't bother last time. It was soooo salty.
THE RETURN OF THE KING
Mike ,you have helped perpetrate the myth that airfryers are only for beige food .
I do hope that later in the week you cook some proper meals
Some of my favorite foods to air fry are French fries, tater tots, hot dogs, and burgers. It’s pretty cool you got yourself a air fryer.
Lettuce give it another five!
It is better to think of it as a mini convection oven instead of a fryer that uses air instead of oil. I prefer the type that looks more like a toaster oven instead of a basket style one that you have. I think it allows for better air circulation and does a better job on things that can't be flipped like your Naan-pizza. The naan-pizza probably would have been better if you had put the naan in for a bit first before topping it to give it a firmer texture.
Mike I hope you remember to preheat your air fryer I don't know if the newest versions of the airfryer don't need to be pre-heated but the majority of older air fryers do need to be pre-heated
The ninja duals don't need preheating
@@inthekitchenwithpenn1 oh cool
I just got the ninja duo too, the best thing I've ever bought for the kitchen, not only is the food more delicious it's the time saving as well. My oven is so clean as well now from lack of use☺☺
I'm just gonna assume he's dead had me laughing for a few mins 😂
Liners defy the purpose of these air fryers, blocking air. Their super easy to clean anyway
This is what the sodastream was to the 90s. Expect to see in landfill
You’re living in the past bud if anything’s gonna be in landfill it’ll be the conventional oven
@@Farquad76.547 we'll see ;)
"That's a lot of mozzerela" A cricket ball's worth, perhaps?
one meal in and I'm already annoyed. Putting the liner in defeats the benefits of convection, and then didn't even flip em around to get the browning on other sides
Beat me to it…
I cut mine with a cookie cutter and throw away the crusts.
I’m in the anti liner brigade.
Don't use the liner.
Oil the basket and pre heat it before you start cooking.
Hi Mike, yes you can get pumpkin in the u.k. Tesco sell Libby tinned pumpkin as does the Co-op, and I think Asda does as well. Get rid of the liners, you do not need them and they stop the air circulating. Please take care and stay safe.
Christ almighty, only on day 1 and already the cat is dead.
I have the ninja and the best recommendation I can give is Iceland frozen sausages £2 for a bag of 10. 180*C for 14 minutes from frozen turning half way and my days they are banging!
