Ninja’s new portable air fryer lets you cook a 2kg chicken in the office
Ninja, maker of some of the best air fryers, has unveiled a new machine that lets you cook and reheat food anywhere there’s an electrical outlet. The Ninja Crispi (following the same naming convention as the Foodi, Slushi and Creami) is a portable air fryer that allows you to prepare nuggets and fries in your kitchen, at your desk or wherever else you can plug it in. .
The Crispi cooking system consists of a set of specially designed glass containers, with a Power Pod that clicks into place on the top. Once connected, the Power Pod detects the size of the container (4qt or 6qt) and begins circulating superheated air to cook the food inside.
Each glass container also has a reusable lid, so you can whip up your prepared dishes or leftovers at lunchtime. No more soggy microwaved meals or plastic boxes. When you’re done, the entire system stacks up and takes up minimal space in your kitchen cupboard.
The world is your kitchen
The Crispi has four cooking modes (max crisp, bake, air fry, and crisp again), and according to Ninja, it can handle everything from light snacks to a 4-pound chicken. Keep in mind that it doesn’t have an odor-absorbing filter, so cooking a roast at your desk could make you quite unpopular unless you’re willing to share it.
The Crispi is available to order now for $159.99 (about £120 / AU$230) straight from Ninjaand will be available in major US stores later this fall. Looking for something more conventional? Our roundup of the best air fryers is packed with options if you prefer to limit cooking to your kitchen.
