Nigella: Yes I love my air fryer...but I don't use it to fry things!

But the domestic goddess does not fry food with it instead she cooks meat and fish, and has even developed a way of using it as a poacher.

The TV chef said: "I love my air fryer, but air fryer is such a stupid name as I want to fry in fat.

"An air fryer is not a fryer. I think of it as the microwave. It is like an AGA in crypt form because it is a very good conventional oven.

"I use it sometimes when I do pork belly slices, I cook sausages and chicken crackling."

Nigella, 64, added: "The thing is it is really good and sometimes I cook fish in it, but I turn it into a poacher then as I put liquid in the bottom.
