You wanted a second book and here is it! Poppy Cooks: The Actually Delicious Air Fryer Cookbook.

I am honestly still not over the fact I have not one, but TWO COOKBOOKS! Thank you so much to everyone who loved my first book, Poppy Cooks: The Food You Need, and hopefully you’ll feel the same about this one hehe…

Ok, so what’s different about this book?

This cookbook features 100 recipes that are easy, fool-proof and basically give you the tools to make a three course dinner (if you wanted to) all in the Air Fryer. It covers everything from meat, fish to sweet treats, sides and obviously spuds. It wouldn’t be a Poppy Cooks book without a section dedicated to our carby fave. 

Why Air Fryers?

Firsty, I love my air fryer. Secondly, I owe it all to my Mom (thanks again, Mom). Ever the trendsetter, she became an air fryer convert back in 2018 during a kitchen renovation after losing access to her oven and stove. After being impressed by the speed, ease and most importantly, less mess and washing up, I naturally had to test it out and see what all the fuss was about. Now, despite being a chef and a clean freak in a professional kitchen, when I’m at home I’m very much a ‘leave the washing up til the next morning’ kinda gal. It’s my toxic trait and I never learn. UNTIL NOW. Oh yes, goodbye to the morning panic clean because I AM CHANGED. Cleaning is so easy, that I actually don’t dread it anymore haha. 

The beauty of an air fryer is that you can cook everything in one basket/tray and as we’re all busy, we want easy, we want something convenient but still super tasty. Whether you’re whipping up some honey-glazed carrots or roasting a chicken, you don’t lose any of the flavour – everything is still absolutely delicious! One of the questions I ALWAYS get asked on my channels is how to cook different meats and how to perfect oven favourites, so this book is my answer! You’ll find chips, chicken wings, toasties, Mac and cheese, ser-lutty brownies and so much more. I can’t rave about the brownies enough (they include a cookie dough layer, sandwich biscuit layer, gooey brownie layer and lashings of white chocolate sauce – because it clearly wasn’t already chocolat-y enough). I’ll stop now. I just really really liked these.
