Airfryer part II

Pegedil tu keje maid aku... Cerdik gak la dia lapik aluminium foil, tp melekat bawah dia, boh butter/oil pon melekat gak. So, agak fail dari segi rupa. Rasa xde hal... Sedap je and masak elok dalam dia.. -- takde rupe pegedil ek?? LOL.. cam cekodok je aku tgk!!

Sausage & cheese bread -- roti, homemade mari... Boh sausage, tabur cheddar & mozzarella cheese. Masuk airfryer 4-5mins. Rangup & yummeh...

Homemade wedges -- from fresh potatoes. Potong2 agak nipis2. Boh sesudu minyak jagung (olive oil dah abis), oregano & salt sikit. Masuk airfryer 15-18mins, terlebih sikit.
2nd batch aku buat 12-15mins mmg just nice.. Maybe sbb nipis2 tu...
Pastu makan cicah cheese dip... Uhhh mabeles!! Hihi

Philips airfryer

bored reading about baby's stuff??

let's talk about something else...

last 2 wks, out of the blue, DH mentioned about airfryer... he said, let's buy it -- so i did some survey between Philips Airfryer (which is available in Malaysia) vs Tefal Actifry (which is not yet in Malaysia market -- but a friend of mine bought it fr the UK earlier this year..)

Philips airfryer -- retail at RM1,199 --> if offer can get RM999 in Harvey Norman
Tefal Actifry -- there are few models, the black one cheapest is GBP119.99
I asked my friend in Aussie to look for Tefal actifry (she's coming back to Malaya soon and i have few stuff with her to be shipped in June) -- cheapest she can found is AUD289 -- but only reached me earliest end of June.

Tefal actifry -- available in the UK, kalau beli, kena consider shipping. A friend of mine bought it quite cheap around RM600 and shipped it together using courier service (buat group buy ramai2 and share shipping -- memang murah la -- prob is, u have to buy it and send it to the UK address, a person in the UK has to pack it in the courier box and wait for the courier company to fetch it yada yada.... it hassle but worth it if u have somebody to help you with it!!)

----

so we finally settled with this after considering few factors, among them:

nak dapat cepat -- if Tefal fr Aussie, price around RM950-1000 -- but we'll receive it in August. DH konon ckp beli sini dgn harge yang lebih kurang, bleh dapat cepat so i can use it to cook my non-/less-oily confinement food... ~~sooo thoughtful ehh??~~
price-wise --> Philips ni can get cheaper if buy from someone in FB (BarangMurahUK), priced around RM750 siap boleh installment 4x tp paling awal dapat end of august *gulp* lama tu -- again faktor waktu
warranty -- some would offer international warranty, tp tak sure if beli fr Aussie or UK, warranty void ke tak -- we are considering after-sales services/warranty -- kalau beli sini, ada problem, bleh terus pegi ke kedai tu balik (well, we both are non-risk-takers)
why Philips & not Tefal?? -- though Tefal nampak lagi besar compartment dia, and ada 'pengacau' (to make food evenly cooked -- so takyah terbalik2 kan during cooking), we are afraid that the 'pengacau' akan buat food eg ikan goreng hancur --> that is DH's concern. I never thought of that!! LOL..
and dari segi size too -- since our benchtop in the kitchen is limited, i prefer the compact size of Philips airfryer...
