Try to make Lava Cake from Philips App
I completely followed the recipes. I had all ingredients in my kitchen, and the method is very easy as well. I divided the cake mixture to 4 ramekins, but I tried only 1 at first. The recipe says the cooking time is 5 minutes. I thought it's too short, but followed it. After 5 minutes, open the Airfryer... it looks cooked! I scoop it, the top is baked well, and gooey inside! Maybe little bit sweet for me, but I liked it!
But I wanted to stock in freezer rest of cakes for having as lunch/morning tea later, so I set for 12 minutes for rest of 3 cakes. I think 10 minutes might be enough because it was little bit dry, but it's like normal chocolate cake:)
I'm not sure it will bake like oven if I use whole tin, but I think it works in small cups.
We totally love Airfryer, especially cooking frozen food. Easy to use, no mess, and importantly, we can cut off oil intake.
Thanks again for giving me an opportunity to test the Airfryer!!

Comparing with the Philips XL Airfryer
So in conclusion, truely my dream airfryer would be a combination of the two machines. I would like the capacity of the XL, the digital display, temperature and time setting could be by dials just with a bit more spacing between measures, but I really like being able to see the time remaining from across the room. I love the easy clean features of the TurboStar, and think that in the long run, there will be less reported problems with smoking etc than with the XL model.

reheat leftover food
I placed baking paper in the basket, (then I don't need to wash basket later!lol) put the chicken, and set 140c for 20min. It's quicker to reheat in the microwave, but crumbs are getting soggy. It may take same length to reheat in the oven, but I need to preheat the oven first.
The chicken in Airfryer is just like as reheat in the oven. Still crunchy outside, and reheat & still juicy inside, but I could save time cuz I don't need to preheat!
Airfryer is good for not only cooking, but also reheat leftover foods!

crispy outside, juicy inside
The instruction of the packet suggest to use oven, but when we followed the instruction and used oven, it wasn't successful. It was cooked inside, but not crunchy outside. My husband likes crunchy and crispy outside, so we usually cooked it with deep fryer. But yes, after cooking buffalo chicken wings in deep fryer, the oil is getting dirty, and getting too oily!
I put some chicken wings in the basket, and set 180c for 15 minutes. While cooking the chicken, the white smoke (not stinky smoke, just like steam) came from the back! After the beep sound, open the bascket... wow! it looked it was cooked in the deep fryer. It looked crunchy outside and still sizzling.
It cooked perfection! Hot and juicy inside, and crispy outside. My husband said it should cook 5 more minutes because he likes really crunchy, but it was enough for me.
No mess, don't need to worry about changing oil. And I was surprised some fat (oil) come from chicken!
Thanks again for choosing me to try the wonderful products. Now it sits on the bench every day!

RESTAURANT QUALITY FOOD, AT HOME!!
Within the first week of cooking using the Philips Viva TurboStar Airfryer I received the greatest compliment my husband has ever given me over something I've made - "This is restaurant quality food" he said!!

No oil, but still crispy
But the basket goes very hot, so I wonder where to put the basket on...
And I also thought it's more convenient if it has a "cancel" button.

Amazing for specific food only
We have managed to cook chicken breasts well as well but only if they are battered rather than plain.
We have done a lot of research and there doesn't seem to be many recipes to accommodate other foods as of yet.
