This new book offers nutritious and budget-friendly recipes aiming to reduce the amount of energy by using the air fryer instead of the oven and/or grill. In tests carried out by Which? using an air fryer costs from a third to half less than using an electric oven. The popularity of air fryers looks set to last, and why not with its amazing list of benefits not just to the household budget, but for the time-poor cook too. Using an air fryer drastically cuts down on cooking times, making these recipes fantastic for anyone cooking in a hurry too.  The recipes in this book cater for a wide range of tastes and needs, exploring ideas for using tins, jars and cartons, cooking from frozen, using up leftovers, using cheaper cuts of meat, grains and pulses, vegetable-based dishes and much more. Jenny Tschieshe’s first book taught us that an air fryer doesn’t just have to be for beige food. Now it’s time to take things a step further by focusing on making the most of your air fryer in terms of keeping your energy and food costs as low as possible.  Product Information:  • ISBN:  9781788795524 • Author: Jenny Tschiesche • Publisher:  Ryland Peters & Small • Format:  Hardback • Pages:  144 • Dimensions: 19.05 x 1.78 x 23.5 cm

An eye-opening investigation into the science, economics, history and production of ultra-processed food. It's not you, it's the food.

Find out why exercise and willpower can't save us, and what UPF is really doing to our bodies, our health, our weight, and the planet (hint: nothing good).
