The minimum amount of oil or its absence at all - this is the technology for cooking products using a device such as the Redmond RAG-241 air grill. Grilled mackerel recipes, for example, do notrequire oil at all. Fatty meats can be cooked together with a side dish - potatoes or vegetables. To do this, they make a “pallet” with sides from the foil so that the vegetables absorb all the flavors.
If the recipe calls for stewed vegetables, they are prepared in an air grill and pre-baked. It turns out very tasty caviar, sauté or stew.
Few novice cooks, having purchased an air grill, know that it is possible to bake meat and vegetables in ceramic pots. But it is not only tasty, but also he althy food. In order to get a dish at the exit in this way, it is necessary to act as when cooking in an ordinary oven. Put the food in the pot and place it in the bowl on the wire rack.
Some booklets and brochures for the appliance indicate a function such as steam cooking. However, judging by the reviews, the Redmond RAG-241 aerogrill poorly copes with this function. It is better, of course, to entrust this to a slow cooker or a double boiler. In addition, it is inconvenient to heat up small portioned dishes in an air grill.
What else does this device do excellently? Sun-dried tomatoes are delicious and fragrant. Also, the convection oven does an excellent job of drying, for example, mushrooms or herbs. Many housewives use it to sterilize glass jars during the conservation period.
