Breville Halo Health Fryer, 1 Kg, 1200 Watt - White

Product Information

Although it has a relatively generous capacity, it does perform best if it is not over-crowded and everything is on one level along the bottom. This model cooks 28% faster than the previous Halo model, and there’s a dual heat function, non-stick rotating bowl and tilt mechanism too for evenly cooked food every time. Most air-fryers are multifunctional but not all extend their practicality to usable baking functions. Such a shame as I have had Breville air fryers for 12+ years and have always loved them, but this model is dire.

Breville Halo 5.5L digital air fryer review - Review | BBC

Built with eight presets (steak, chicken wings, seafood, fish, pizza, chips, bake, vegetables), its sync function adds convenience and was effective when cooking different dishes at the same time – we tried this with salmon (10 mins at 180C) and chicken breast (20 mins at 180C). While it's not quite as good at air frying as other ovens I've tested, it more than makes up for this with its impressive range of functions and smart controls. However, the timer will immediately start again once the drawer is closed so it requires very little effort on your part. Whether you want to upgrade to a newer model, or your air-fryer has reached the end of its life, knowing how and where to dispose of your appliance is important to avoid creating more e-waste.Chips for two people were evenly browned using the preset having been pre-tossed in 1 tbsp of oil, although they were not super crisp.

For example I start the fries and after about 11 minutes, i add the bacon so they will both be ready at the same time. I've tested each and every one of the best air fryers in our guide, so I tried out the Breville Halo Rotisserie Air Fryer to see if it's up-to-scratch. The control panel glitches out, the timer changes of its own accord and then the whole control panel becomes unresponsive. When we review air-fryers, each model goes through several tests: making chips, roasting chicken, grilling halloumi and aubergine, and even baking cake, where possible, to test all functions. Of course, times of cooking may vary depending of the quantity but I easily open, take a look and shake it.That said, there was no need to turn over my food midway through the cooking process because the wire mesh allows the hot air to circulate around the bacon and chicken entirely. Hugely versatile, they work by circulating hot air to create a ‘fried’ finish on food, using little to no oil. Some of our fryers had up to nine pre-set programmes for popular foods like chips and, bizarrely, shrimps.
