Cooking Appliances

For a small kitchen, look for versatile appliances that can do more than one job, such as an air fryer, mini oven or microwave. Compact rice cookers, sandwich makers and grills are also useful if you want quick meals without taking up much worktop space. Check the dimensions before buying and consider models with removable parts for easy storage.

An air fryer is best for crisping chips, vegetables, chicken and snacks with less oil. A mini oven is more flexible for baking, roasting and reheating larger items, while a microwave is ideal for speed, defrosting and simple reheating. If you cook a wide variety of meals, think about the appliance you will use most often day to day.

For one or two people, a smaller 1.5 to 3 litre cooker is usually enough. Families often prefer 4 to 6 litres, especially for batch cooking soups, stews, chilli or pulled meats. If you like freezing portions, choosing a slightly larger capacity can be more practical.

Most non-stick grills, air fryer baskets and sandwich maker plates are designed to wipe clean more easily than standard metal surfaces. Let the appliance cool before cleaning, and avoid abrasive scourers that can damage the coating. Removable trays, baskets and plates are especially helpful if you want faster washing up.
