@Martin Canty May I ask how you air fry the chicken thighs and can you do that with drumsticks? I have an under utilised Actifry and Holgen oven here. I fry diced chicken in the Actifry but that is about it.
 
Today:

B- 1x wholemeal toast with butter. Skinny latte
L- starter - baked Brie with chutney, main - lobster and crab fish cakes with asparagus & a mint pea sauce, dessert - mini chocolate brownie. A glass of prosecco to celebrate birth of Nathaniel.
D- McDonald’s - cheese burger & nuggets.

Options at hospital are limited! So we went out for lunch to do something happy with our other son & my mum.

The rock are extremely hot so is the iron plate. I have no idea how they do it. The eggs turn to omelette ery fast indeed. Just a thought, Maybe heat a skillet with pebbles on to a very high temp os a gas ring. Just a thought I am no chef.
 
Dinner time plain omelette and chicken wrap for tea snack was reeses peanut butter cup

Click to expand...
You can do just about anything in the air fryer, in this instance I set the temperature to 375 (which seems to work well for chicken) & fry until the breading is a golden brown (I still double check with a thermometer). Bone-in cuts might take a little longer & "fry" at 350 to prevent the breading or coating burning.
Last night we had company & I did some pre-made Jalapeno Poppers for appetizers & I used the instructions on the box for regular frying
