The finance expert has issued a warning to anyone who is using an air fryer instead of an oven - and a method to save money if you're cooking a turkey this Christmas.
Martin Lewis , the renowned money-saving guru, has issued a caution to those using air fryers as an alternative to ovens.
Detailing his 'rule of thumb' for appliance use while making dinner, he offered a straightforward guideline on how to make a cost effective decision. Continuing with his explanation, he added: "Then remember 1,000 watts is a Kilowatt. And you pay roughly 34p per Kw per hour." He also noted the energy variation during oven usage: "An oven isn't always using all the wattage as it's heating up and then topping up.
"But if you've got something small and simple in there, it's probably cheaper and that's where the microwave and also the air fryers tend to come into their own because they're better at cooking single objects."
