And with so many of us wanting to ditch our ovens in favour of cheaper and more energy-efficient methods amid the sky-high cost of energy bills, it's no surprise people are looking at alternative ways to achieve perfect roasties without using an oven. One woman shared her genius method online in a viral video in which she used an air fryer to cook her potatoes, which has now become a common method for cheaper cooking, as the appliances use far less energy than a standard oven. Demi Hammill said she had seen the "hack" elsewhere and decided to try it out for herself - and managed to get crispy potatoes in just 20 minutes. Demi coated her potatoes with garlic and rosemary ( @demihammillx/TikTok) And after a 20-minute air fry, they came out so crispy ( @demihammillx/TikTok) Demi started with a tin of peeled new potatoes, which she drained and put into a bowl alongside a sprinkle of rosemary, garlic, and some flour to help them crisp up. She then gave the mixture a good stir and tipped the potatoes into her air fryer, before cooking them for 20 minutes. And when she took the potatoes out, they looked just like a roast potato you would do in the oven - but she'd saved time and money by doing them in her air fryer. Many commenters on the video - which was posted to Demi's @demihammillx TikTok account - were amazed by the hack, but Demi did have a few people call her method a "sin", as they disagreed with her decision to use tinned potatoes instead of fresh ones. One person said: "The number of negative comments I'm seeing ... if you don't like it, don't try it! It looks banging!" While another added: "Definitely going to try this!"){kind=link}
