Temu has airfyer trays and silicone muffin trays really cheap as well

I'm not a fan of trays when I cook a whole chicken or drumsticks & wings. It ends up soggy. Vegies are okay though plus chicken breasts etc because they don't take as long to cook.

I've never used trays before , I just purchased some on temu. Usually we cook straight in the draw. I do use silicone muffin trays though if I make them in the airfryer.

I've never used any trays either. I did see them in Coles -brown paper and silicone. Will have to try your muffin recipe you posted for the air fryer. Will need to buy silicone ones for it. Thanks.

Let me know how you go with the trays from Temu if you cook chicken pieces ie. drumsticks or wings.

I have bought so many kitchen accessories since moving to Perth, we have run out of room! We even had to buy two standalone kitchen pantries from Freedom Furniture to satisfy my cooking addiction. Everything from a Kenwood food processor to a Baccarat mandolin slicer!

So no air fryer for Debra and myself....

Mine are KitchenAid or Tefal.. LOL! We're redoing our kitchen, one step at a time and planning at least 6 of the kitchen rolling carts to put all my implements on! It's tiresome to do it right now, bloody heat wave, but our house literally became our house recently.. my father-in-law passed unexpectedly and my mother-in-law is in a care home after a leg amputation and health problems *sigh* Sooo .. busy busy busy!

btw.. PLEASE make a will! My father-in-law passed without making one despite my husband and I and our sister-in-law urging him to make one. It's been a mess and the lawyers my husband hired are freaking irritating! Mum wanted Jason to be the Executor, but they said she has to be and if not, then the oldest son (who was mutually disowned years ago) would be. Hubs is pretty much doing it anyway, explaining things to Mum. We're hoping things will be settled by next month..

Sorry for the swerve there. I've made it my mission to tell people they need to make wills I know it's hard to think about. My husband and I made wills when I applied for permanent residence, the basic kind. Once Dad's estate is settled we'll be fairly well of. But we'd rather have Dad back

Then you are missing out on something very amazing

Nothing like trying to make me feel guilty for buying a place with a small kitchen, eh?

The balcony is much, much bigger than the kitchen. Perhaps I should purchase a large weatherproof pantry to put on the balcony for kitchenware.

My sons balcony was huge . He used to fry all his chips out there. He won't use an airfryer he uses a deep fryer.
He recently moved back home and now fries his chips outside
My older son came for dinner on Sunday and he even asked why he doesn't airfry his chips. He replied 'no way' he wasn't and won't try them in the airfryer

Are you able to add floating shelves, even in your laundry . Then you can store electrical on it.

I keep mine in the cupboard as well

I have 4 air fryers, also keep 2 in the cupboard, a 4lt and a 9lt, I've also got 2x28lt air fryers. One I keep on a bench top in the sunroom (adjacent to our kitchen). The fourth one has a rotisserie included which we use in our caravan placing it out under the awning when in use as I don't like inbuilt ovens in the caravan because they heat up the inside too much in the summer time.

My “laundry” is in the main bathroom.

Veg has a deep fryer for his chips.

The individual storage room for this apartment is 20 stories below. Plenty of room but a nuisance having to take the lift to retrieve kitchenware.

When I bought this apartment 2.5 yrs ago, I was living alone and don’t like cooking, so a small kitchen suited me.

But I’m not moving. Too many good aspects about this place. Especially location.

Do you run a restaurant?

And I thought I was bad

No, just love cooking and the older I get I try to find the easy recipes and/or the easiest way of cooking and the Air Fryers do the trick for for me.

Do you find the rotisserie a bugger to clean? I cook a whole chicken or roast meat in my air fryer without a rotisserie - turn over half way.

I love the whole idea of things cooking quicker especially when we're away in the caravan, but I admit that the rotisserie can be a bugger at times. I only use it when we're "onsite" somewhere that way I can use the laundry to give it a GOOD SCRUB out. After firstly removing the chicken or whatever I place the rotisserie into a container of hot soapy water and let it soak while we're eating then when I feel like it an hour or two later of soaking I'll take it to the laundry for it's dunking. I'll admit also that depending on what I'm cooking I too just place it in the tray and turn over halfway, depending on how I feel. Good luck with your clean-ups.

Sounds the perfect plan that you do using the laundry "onsite".
I have a Tefal. I soak the plate with the holes, and wipe out the basket with paper towels before washing. I don't want to tip fat dripping down the sink.
