  • Hi lovely's, I must say I'm absolutely loving this ninja. cooks so much quicker than my other one. At the end of the video, I inserted a picture of my energy usage meter, and I'm pleased to say it's very gentle on electricity X

    Hi Lovely's Just an update: I now pop my potato slices in the microwave for a few minutes in a microwave container with a splash of water before I add them on top. Just to make sure they cook properly x

      May I suggest to all, Iceland mash, was a quid, probably 7 a bag now, but pellets of frozen mash in the Microwave. It's lovely. The time, energy, cooking time, Give it a try..

      My easy easy tip is buy Marks and Spencer’s buttery mash, I make the meat and onions in my ninja speedy, cook for several minutes to brown the meat and onions, on the sear and sauté, add some diced frozen carrots onions and celery, add some hot water to just cover the meat cook for 15 mins on airfryer and steam, add some gravy powder towards the end to thicken the liquid , transfer all the meat to a foil container, allow to cool before adding the mash I sliced the mash as it’s cold coming out if the fridge, and place on top of the meat, then when you need it, pop in the airfryer for 15 mins to heat up the middle and brown the top, either sprinkle cheese on top or blobs of butter, enjoy with any microwave veg of your fancy.

    Well I have just bought this very air fryer, just awaiting delivery now, and planning to make this version of cottage pie, as I an now a widow i can make this and eat some and put some in a container in the fridge for another night, I love cottage pie. One thing that would be very helpful is if you could list the ingredients, method and approximate times you used. Also love the thought of putting the potatoes in the microwave for a few minutes to soften them up a bit. Another tip my Daughter uses in her Ninja Foodi is to soak the pototes for approximately 10 mins or so in boiling water to start the cooking process first. Will be going through a lot of your recepies and trying a lot out, thank you for this lovely channel too. Keep up the great work.🥰

    I just found you, watched you make the toad in the hole then the cottage pie and subscribed immediately. So nice to see videos from a Brit watched by another Brit.

    I jyst have a small airfyer, but I live alone.
    I find it does sausages beautifully.
    It doesnt do chips from scratch well, but I buy the frozen ones and I pop them in the microwave for half a minute, then i to the airfryer. Beautiful!
    Ditto my roasties. If I am doing chops, I pop them in together, and it is great.
    Steak cooks great too. I season my steak, put a couple of oats of butter on it and it is beautiful. I like medium rare, fairly thick cut, so 200° for 4 mins a side.
    Going to try this recipe.

    • @LindzandLife
      @LindzandLife  Год назад +1

      Hi Liz 👋 I agree with the sausages 😋 I do make real chips a lot but can be tricky to get them right. I buy the cheapest frozen chips that are meant for a fryer and find them the best. Pop them straight in frozen on around 190c for 12-15 mins with a shake half way. Hope that helps some x

    I have soaked my ninja drawers by pulling hot water and soap in them and they didn’t leak. I purchased 4 of the Ikea 1 litre dishes with lids for using in my ninja and also storage of other foods and I would advise getting the lids as I used one to keep some spaghetti in sauce in the fridge for a couple of days having closed it like a Tupperware pot (pressing on the mostly closed lid to expel air) and the seal (airtightness) was amazing and would be perfect for the freezer. ❤

    • @LindzandLife
      @LindzandLife  Год назад +1

      Hi Jane I worked out the screws were a little loose on 1 of my draws I've tightened it and no more leaking 😊 Thats great advice on the lids when I'm next putting in a ikea order I'll definitely get more and lids. Thank you lovely x

    I put canned sliced potatoes on my shepherds pie now and cover them with grated cheese for the last five minutes and the family liove it . Since i retired i do all the cooking because my wife needs a break after forty odd years. It is cheaper and easier to buy them in cans and they are sliced better than i could do by hand .

  • @jeanwilliams3388

    Hi Lindz thanks for all your great guidance with air fryer cooking. I am new to all this ( mum pestered me to get one, as she has two Ninjas and swears by them! I was sceptical at first as I thought they were a gimmick, but now I’m a believer!! 😂) I bought a Speedi a couple of weeks ago and I’ve only used my conventional oven once since as I’m so in love with Speedi😁 Now I’ve bought a flex drawer Ninja and I can’t wait to try it. You cook very similarly to me, as I can seem to second guess your timings! 😂 Thanks so much, I’m sure I’ll refer to you for help going forward with my Ninjas. Liked and subscribed ❤ Take care lovely. 😁❤️

    I have the Dual 10qt (US). Previously, I had the 8qt Dual (rehomed to my son). I dearly love the versatility of this Ninja device. If I told you just how many Ninjas I have presently in Active use, ones in StandBy, and ones gifted to others, you would be shocked. I love the glass pans you use in your Dual as well as the gadget to lift them out. Great job showcasing the Ninja Dual. Folks would be quite surprised at what all can be accomplished with it. :)

These are all in my Active Daily use lineup. I have one non-Ninja product of which I love and use mainly for protein cooks. It’s the Dreo ChefMaker. I have not used stovetop/oven since Feb 2021.

I now have 2 a 4.7l single draw Cosori and my ninja, and I absolutely love them both and, more importantly, use them both. The last time I used my main oven was last Christmas. The only change I'd make would be the ninja I'd go for the model without the probe. Hope I've helped a little x

    Hi, very much like your way of presenting things in a calm and humourous way and will be following your instructions when I attempt to make the meal that you have just made, well done to you. I have 2 x Cosori, the smallest one and the next one up and have now bought a Klairston 2 in One grill/air fryer as I cannot get a decent friend egg on the Cosoris but can on the Klaiston. Favourite meal is pork chop, mushrooms and creamy mashed potatoes.

    Really enjoying your channel Lindz - you have a very natural style of presenting.
    Just a wink on the potatoes. Cottage Pie is made using minced beef, and with sliced potatoes arranged on top of the meat to resemble tiles on a cottage roof. Shepherd's Pie is made using minced lamb, with the potato piped on top to resemble a sheep's fleece.
    (Mine are just "throw together and see how it turns out", so we never really have the same thing twice, even though I will call it shepherd's pie every time :D )

    • @leonleese4919
      @leonleese4919 Год назад

      Your way is better because the carrots won’t go soft when the stew is warmed up whereas adding the carrots for the cottage pie means you get a bite from the freshly cooked carrots.
      Or you could add more tomatoes and some medium curry powder, and some cabbage leaves or spinach.stir in to cook the greens then adjust the thickness to suit the sprinkle with fresh chopped Coriander or some of the spicy salad greens or mint to make it look fresh.

    That was interesting. I have thought about using sliced potatoes on the top of a Cottage Pie in the past but have not done it so I am glad to see your efforts. Not entirely convinced it is a good idea though after seeing your results. Worth a try though.

    You can also do a cheats cottage pie, as I’m 80 and cannot stand for long in the kitchen this is my easy cottage pie, buy some buttery mash from Marks and Spencer’s, brown off your meat, 250g on sear and sauté, I’ve got a Ninja speedi add onion, then add some frozen diced veg like carrots and celery, once meat brown cover the meat with warm water and add a stock pot, cook for 15 mins on mine I did steam and Airfryer, then getting to last 3 mins add gravy browning to thicken, and cook last 3 mins. Then transfer to foil dish that fits your airfryer, allow to stand to cool a little then add mash potatoes, I sliced the mash to fit the foil container, when ready to eat pop in airfryer for 15 mins, with either cheese on top or chopped butter to brown the pots and it comes out lovely. Since having my Ninja Speedl I’ve not used my oven at all, and my Soeedi comes on holiday with us to our caravan. I’ve also invested in a small Cosori 3.4 Ltr airfryer as when cooking roast vegetables they take up a lot of room and they steam while roasting, so I put my roast potatoes in the Cosori airfryer to get them crisp, It gets a bit addictive when you start with an airfryer 😂

      @@LindzandLife hi, I’ve not found the steam at all a problem, just use it as an airfryer, then there’s no steam, but I use it in place of a frying pan to sear the meat and onions, I airfry some bacon with the trivet in the top position, then sear and sauté the cabbage for a little bit with no extra water other than what’s it’s washed in, then move it over to the steam and steam the cabbage, then chop the bacon into the cabbage. It’s sad not to use it at all it’s better than an ordinary airfryer as it’s so versatile it can do anything. You buy just an airfryer and immediately all veg except roast veg are ruled out it’s also got a slow cooker, which I’ve not used, but mainly I use the airfryer the most and it’s larger than most airfryers on the market because you can take a whole pizza a 10 “ might take larger, but if you get a smaller airfryer it limits the volume immediately, I sit mine on my cooker top, and turn my extractor fan on if I am steaming anything, as I do not use my oven or induction hob since I had it, I just love it, it has to go on holiday with us as well, I cannot live without my airfryer. Please start using it, uou will not regret it.
