Got home an hour ago and thought, I need a Bald Foodie Guy fix, to my horror , no video today !!! Until now, ahhhhh, cheers Gaz , hope you're well mate !
I often do bacon in my airfryer. Eggs seem abit hit and miss if you like them soft, but simple if you like them well done. When i do a bacon roll, i cook the bacon, then put it in the roll, with some chedder and cherry tomatoes, then put the whole lot back in the airfryer to melt the cheese. That works very well.
Air fryers are just basically small super-convection ovens. Restaurants for decades, at least here in the US, have known that the best bacon is that done in the oven rather than in a skillet. Of course, what we call bacon is what I think you call 'streaky bacon', but it turns out beautifully. I really like using mine here in Texas for baking potatoes. Great video!
yeah but usa bacon is 90% fat since its the belly cut ,for us brits who like the fat in bacon crispy air fryer is the best way or a combination microwave using the grill option
Do you mean 'fan' oven? We have a crazily powerful electric fan oven and its as quick as the air fryer. Might cost more to run but you can put a lot in it.
I bought an air fryer about 4 years ago before they really took off, hardly any recipes online & just couldn’t get the hang of it. Dusted it off yesterday & tried a toastie in it… oh my word! What a game changer! If you haven’t tried a toasted cheese (I had cheese & ham!) toastie, give it a try! Has to be done on thick white bread though, only because the air circulating can blow the top piece of bread off haha! Although this can be remedied by popping a cocktail stick either end (which I also tried & it worked great!) I was chuffed 😁 I’ll have to try the bacon next! X
@@BaldFoodieGuy haha yes, wasn’t expecting a topless toastie 😂 I’m with you though, hit & miss with the air fryer, perhaps I just need to practice more but mines rather small, if I cook fries / chips in there, there’s no room to do anything else, so something had to get cold. I see the appeal in ones like yours or the ninja duals! x
Slightly off topic but I didn't realise until last week that Heinz Toast Toppers were discontinued years ago ! I just thought about them and couldn't get them out of my head but no longer available anywhere , I'm going to try and concoct a replacement 🙃 😅. Loved them growing up .
Always get my bacon in the air fryer these days. Same with most my stuff to be honest. Bang it on and leave it to go. Best way to cook! It's absolutely banging for a joint of pork, the crackling comes out spot on every single time.
i also went out and bought a deep fat fryer pan and mesh basket, got rid of the pan i just wanted the mesh basket to square up to fit my air fryer, makes it easier to get stuff out lol
Hello i keep the silver trays meat pie’s come in and oil them up then crack an egg and cook for 2:30 minutes then turn over with a SOUP spoon and cook for another :30 seconds...love it. P.a love the channel 👍
I've had my air fryer for about a fortnight now (Uten 6.5L). Love it!!! I look at things differently now when food shopping - can I do that in the AF? The bacon you dislike we refer to as peely wally bacon up here in chilly Jockland. Never tried what you did there. I've cooked the bacon crispy before snapping in half and adding it to a puff pastry square (edges folded up) and added an egg on top. Thanks for the vid.
If you are determined to only use the air fryer, may I suggest using a silicone fairy cake case to pour the egg into instead of straight on the bread. The bacon & egg on 200⁰C takes about 7-8mins, though the egg sets with more height than normal so needs squashing/spreading. Using a microwave poacher only takes about 1m40s and is nicer.
You can't beat an egg and bacon sarnie. It always brings back memories of coming back from a patrol in the early hours, going to the cookhouse where the duty cook would knock out a load of them. Nothing ever tasted so good.
Ooohhh lovely! Been wondering about the eggs in an air fryer! I usually microwave my bacon then chuck it in the air fryer to crisp up 🤤🤤🤤 right off to sort myself out a bacon butty 🥪😁😁😁 cheers Gareth x
Think I'd do the bacon in the air fryer, but the egg in a small frying pan. I also love the fatty bit nice and crispy, can't stand pale floppy fat on my bacon. Cheers for giving it a go and showing us Gareth, got to try these things haven't you.
Congratulations m8, proper food at last! LOL I'm going to have a go. The only thing I'd change is leave out the red sauce and put some pepper on the egg.
I've not watched all this video yet but I would break the egg in a glass and scoop out the yoke and add a little of the white. You've given me a great idea 💡 thankyou.. I'm going to try it now actually! Love your videos always interesting and I always watch till the end of them 👍 p.s I also like my bacon 🥓 like that 🥓 feckin yum
I always cook my bacon in the air fryer, I hate fat so I normally cut it all off but if it's crispy like yours Gareth I could eat a bit of it. I can't get away with doing eggs in the air fryer, they get a skin on the top. If I'm doing a fry up in the air fryer I poach the eggs in the microwave. But you can't beat a fried egg. What I like about the air fryer is it's so easy to clean compared to the hob. Anyway your sandwich was spot on. You'll have to do a few more cookery ones.
Before I got used to your accent I had hard time understanding what you say from time to time. Now when I watch you regulary I don't have such problems and I feel I have learned something new. Thank you so much for being here and there you really make my lunch time better!
A useful tutorial in what not to do! I would be inclined to whisk up the egg and cook that in the microwave, then blitz the bacon in the air fryer. At least, it wouldn't take as long as your offering! 😋
good fun vid as usual. ive only got a little budget air fryer but will give it a go as tastier than the 90 sec rustlers i usually rely on in the fridge for when just have to eat something lol
I have not used my air fryer yet, but I shall not be remaking that fella! And the 2 sauce crusade....? 😄 Keep the vids coming, hope you make some pennies from these?
I always do bacon in the Nija , I drape the rashers over the crisper basket , 170° for about 9 mins. Never even thought about doing eggs in it. I always dry fry the eggs.
Nice experiment pal.... will try that on the weekend. But instead of slippage juice, bacon goes great with mango chutney (honestly), not sure chutney would work with the egg though. So... bacon butty with mango chutney in a toasted bun.... Oh yes !
Reminds me of an old microwave dish. Take a bread roll, cut of the top and scoop out the bread. Crack an egg in it, top with cheese. mushroom bacon etc then put the top back on. Microwave for a minute.
Wrong kitchen device, you should have done it in the microwave putting the egg in microwaveable egg cup prick the egg put lid on it batches of 10-20 seconds 30 -40 seconds will cook with a soft egg bacon in the air fryer is fine but you could use browning dish for that.
Hi Gareth ! Can you do a comparison video of Donner Kebab meat ? Most supermarkets (including Farmfoods, Iceland and Asda) sell packs of Donner meat. Cheers.
Did you have a few beers last night Gareth? That’s the kind of thing my husband would end up making to get his quick fix carbs down him lol. Great video btw!
Oh no, you made me want one too. I'm now off to the kitchen to blast some bacon in my air fryer, but I'll cook my egg in my mini egg frying pan. Never thought to use both sauces together though, that's just greeeeedy!
That bacon looks like Butcher's bacon, thick and yummy. I've also tried eggs in the air fryer a couple of times and mainly failed so sticking to the tried and trusted Ninja Foodie frying pan.

Don’t think Gordon Ramsey is afraid of you taking over as top celebrity chef😂 but to us lot you’re our favourite chef, I was in stitches watching this, funny while being serious 😂
I've done this under a grill with decent results but air fryer is a newy on me. Props You're not getting that cold again are ya or was this first thing in the morning?
If that egg had been runny it would have been on Gareth's t shirt and floor.🤣 That looked delicious by the way going to try it in our air fryer,I've never tried to cook egg or toast bread in it .

That was no yolk!
Red and brown sauce together? Would never have been allowed in some places I have lived in in my lifetime! One or the other!
@@BaldFoodieGuy 😝, nice one Gaz, looks cracking that ! Good job I had a Maccy's 5 chicken select meal before I got home hehe !!

I’ve been thinking about eggs in the ninja but not tried it yet….maybe I should on my days off now!!!
This has given me an idea for homemade french bread pizza with egg all done on one level in the air fryer.
This is proper exciting stuff….😃👍
Eggcellent 🤣👍

I have a halogen type air fryer and it's by far the quickest and easiest way to cook bacon!! 🥓
i also went out and bought a deep fat fryer pan and mesh basket, got rid of the pan i just wanted the mesh basket to square up to fit my air fryer, makes it easier to get stuff out lol
Keep experimenting Gareth! I always look forward to seeing what the mad lad's getting up to🤪
More to come!
After this I am sticking to the frying pan version .
Thanks for the experiment.

Great idea!!
Are you sure you’ve got enough bacon Gareth?😂👍
Haha was thinking that 🤣👍👍
Sure was a lot of bacon! You don't get that amount in a McDonald's Bacon and Egg McMuffin. However, you do get a slice of cheese.
Good idea and a great vlog to watch Gaz, but I think I'll stick to the old-fashioned way of frying the egg in a pan 👍
Haha cheers pal

Hi Gareth i find making a nest out of the bacon helps, crack egg into it. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the tip!
Bacon n egg ' mmmm what a combo 🥓🥚👍
The best
Nothing better than a bacon butty. Cheers Gareth. Happy weekend.😀👍
You got that right! You too
This is brilliant👏. We use the airfryer a lot but have never done this. Will definitely give it a go👍
Hope you enjoy
Where did you get your cups? That's a good cup for tea!
Will have to ask
Congratulations m8, proper food at last! LOL I'm going to have a go. The only thing I'd change is leave out the red sauce and put some pepper on the egg.
Sounds great!
I’ve just subscribed! Enjoyed that video…. Can’t beat an Egg 🍳 and bacon 🥓 cob!! ….. Smithy
Thank you kindly
Lovely crispy bacon 😋😋
Thank you 😋
Can't believe you mixed the brown with the red but looks a cracking Saturday morning breakfast. I'll try that myself in the morn good job chef 👨🍳
Yes try it. Game changer
Well done and thanks for your efforts.
That was a really interesting video, hope this is the first of many more experiment videos.
More to come!
Excellent...looking forward to them Gareth.
Looks Good from here 👍
I hope your cold wear’s off quickly
Yeah, you made that work well my friend xx

The Ninja is certainly versatile, without a shadow of a doubt!!
Good luck Gareth! I'm at the beginning of the video looking forward to a cooking disaster! 😁👍

Spot-on lad, BTW My Mrs loves a bit of slippage juice
looked awesome and now you can make it faster and better in future 🙂
Going to have to look into getting an air fryer ..... you seem to be able to cook lots on it xx
Go for it 👌👌
Just reminded me of a neighbour who has noisy hens in the back garden. When i complained i got eggs thrown at the windows.😀🐓🐓

I had a mate that used to make egg butties in a sandwich toaster!! Kx
Yes they are great
'Slippage Juice' 🤣🤣🤣 Genius!

A great eggsperiment by the mad professor 😂………

Love this guy. Nice relaxing voice😊
Thank you kindly!
Afternoon Gaz not a bad idea keep up with the great videos 👏👏👍👍
Thanks 👍
Looks decent... I'm hungry now lol
Cut the bun so it's thicker on the bottom, and then scoop out a little of the bread in the bottom bit. Your egg will stay in then.
Cheers pal will do
Best in a frying pan or a grill egg and bacon brown sauce good video as usual 😁😁😁
That egg on a roll gave me the fear. If i see any clear bit id be boaking up 😁
I've always been undecided when choosing between tomato sauce and brown sauce on my bacon roll. Nice one Gaz, have both.
Definitely I can't win either way so put them both on, still can't win 🤣🤣👍
Tomato sauce on bacon, brown sauce on sausage. And no-one will ever notice if you refill an HP bottle with Bramwell’s from Aldi 😉
I always do bacon in the Nija , I drape the rashers over the crisper basket , 170° for about 9 mins. Never even thought about doing eggs in it. I always dry fry the eggs.

To be fair mate, I’m amazed the bacon was done before the egg! My ninja dual would set that egg rock hard in that time!
Yes I was a bit shocked
Fantastic!

Well watched yar crispy bacon vid and this 1 because wife just bought a ninja lol,so hoping for some geed food,Awe the best Ally
Nice one Ally have fun experimenting
A leave that to the wife m8,hope you and yours are well
That looks soo good 👍
Thank you 😋
Can’t beat a bacon and egg butty, and this was a good experiment but I shall continue to pan fry eggs.
Naw,I'll stick with frying pan----good experiment though Gaz'.
Try it again on bake. Air crisp uses the top element. Bake uses the bottom element. The bacon stopped the heat getting to the egg.
Cheers I didn't know there was a bottom element lol thank you
Is there any end to this man's talents?😎
Haha
That bacon looks like Butcher's bacon, thick and yummy. I've also tried eggs in the air fryer a couple of times and mainly failed so sticking to the tried and trusted Ninja Foodie frying pan.
No wasn't butchers bacon was from Tesco
@@BaldFoodieGuy I will look out for some.
Mmm that looks good

Have fun Fred.
Haha brilliant 👏 🤣. Captain
Cheers Captain 👍👍
Good idea mate, bit of fine tuning on the placement of ingredients heat of air fryer and you’ll have that done in about 8-9 mins.
I bought an air fryer based on all the hype surrounding them. Tried it. Absolutely rubbish. Most of the food wasn't cooked in the center.
