Does anyone have a Ninja Crispi please?

I’ve just bought a Ninja Crispi, and am at a bit of a loss really. I know a lot of people who love their air fryers, but this one doesn’t have a temperature gauge so I don’t know how to cook things. So far, I’m just using it for reheating.

The instructions that came with it aren’t brilliant with suggestions.
If you have one and use it, can you give me some ideas please?

We’ve got one in our campervan - works really well.

Air fryer setting is pretty fierce - makes amazing chips, wedges and great for chicken legs, wings etc as well. You have to be able to turn things over or swish them about a bit because all the heat comes from the top. Have also done kebabs, skewers, sausages and burgers in it

I usually use the roast setting for roasted veg, tray bakes etc. Last night I did chicken legs with new potatoes, shallots, pepper, courgettes, chilli, garlic, wine and herbs. I air fried the underneath of the legs while I was chopping everything and then put the veg on the bottom with the chicken legs on top, skin side up, for 30 mins. Was lovely.

I use recrisp if I’ve bought a quiche/pastry thing from the traiteur/deli and keep warm is useful when you need to… keep things warm

We usually use a Cadac grill when we’re away but not at the moment because France is so dry, and we haven’t missed it at all. Don’t have an oven in the van

Not sure how you’d bake in it because the heat comes from on top but it says you can. We don’t often use the grill plate but we do generally use paper liners

hope that helps!

Hi

I have one too - I use it in air fryer mode for jacket potatoes - turn part way, usual beige foods for ds, roasting veg etc.

it’s just me & ds some of the week so the size is perfect for us. Never tried baking in it though.

i think air fryer mode is around 220 degrees as pp said its fierce!

I like that it’s glass & really easy to clean too.

unlike pp I always use the plate it comes with, even for jacket pots.

not sure that helps?

Thank you both, really helpful. I didn’t really clock that the heat came from the top for some reason!

Roasting veg sounds a really good idea.

I think I need to be braver with it now I have an idea of how hot it is.
