8 minutes in the Ninja Air Fryer



A big thank you to Wyona Bates for loaning our household an Air Fryer.  Today was our first attempt at cooking bacon in it. 

David had just come back from a long walk with two friends from school. They were on bikes. He walked or jogged along side them. They were out in the sunshine for a couple of hours. Just what Dr. Bonnie Henry recommends in these Covid times.

He was hungry when he got home. He  noticed bacon in the fridge, and we decided to try cooking that up instead of our usual homemade fries or a hamburger. 

I tried to find a short YouTube demo. In less time, David found the time and temperature in text:  400°F for 10 minutes, check half-day through cooking time.

The manual says you can run these parts through the
dishwasher, but a few paper towels and a quick wash
in the sink, and you're ready to cook again.

The prep, cooking, clean off plate, clean up cooking area was faster than a drive to a drive-through. I supplemented the meal with scrambled eggs and cheese on a toasted Kaiser roll.

We decided we had a winner with the ease of the cooking. David said of his own cooking, "I need to do this more often." The only change is next time shave two minutes off the cooking time. 

Life is good.

Four more Spring Break school days for more exploratory cooking.

Dinner was done before the sun set.
