Go get cooking

Does exactly what it says – bake, roast, steam, air fry, slow cook and so much more. If you need to save time or have a smaller kitchen, these mutli-functional appliances can help you cook any culinary creation.

Start by picking a size (in litres) to suit how many you’re cooking for. Pop in your ingredients and select the right setting to sear, fry or slow cook your food. Leave it to do all the work and tuck in once it’s ready.

All your classic recipes, all from one pot:

• Buttermilk roast chicken
• Banana bread
• Vegetarian sausage, butternut and red pepper stew

If you’re looking for one pot, homemade meals – opt for a slow cooker. Perfect for beginners, big families or people on the go; it’ll save you time and stress worrying about dinner whilst you go about your day.

Add your prepped ingredients to the pot (which is easily removable and dishwasher proof too), set the temperature and leave it to do its thing. You can set timers or leave it on a low heat, even when you’re not there.

Impress your guests (and yourselves) with these slow cooker recipes:

• Vegan curry
• Upside-down pear cake
• Beef chilli

The newest go-to appliance in any kitchen. Not only are they easy to use, they cook food faster and drain away excess fat for healthier meals. The durable plates are dishwasher safe and their compact size fits any space.

Easily adjust the temperature to suit your food, lift the lid and place your food on the grill, or straight onto the hot plate. You can toast, grill or sear anything from meat to veg and keep turning until cooked through.

So many things, including our list of the best grilled recipes:

• Full English breakfast
• Succulent grilled chicken
• Toasted sandwiches 

Fryers are a great kitchen accessory. They're faster than cooking on the hob, their lids make them safe to use and they create less mess when cooking. Opt for the classic deep fat fryer or the air (health) fryer, which uses less oil.

With multiple pre-set programmes, it couldn’t be easier to cook your food at the touch of a button. For extra-ease, look for fryers with cooking compartments, meaning you can cook two dishes at once.

Recreate some of your favourite dishes with these fryer recipes:

• Crispy fried chicken drumsticks
• Crispy coated fingers
• Cauliflower samosas 

Choose between blenders or hand-held blenders, to breakdown and whizz together ingredients into smooth sauces or pastes. The different blades can create different consistencies, saving you aching arms.

For softer ingredients, pop them into a bowl and use a hand-held blender to quickly blitz them together. For harder foods, fix one of the multiple blades and cover the attached bowl. Adjust the speed and let it get to work.
