With KFC I find it's easiest to cut out the middle man and simply flush it straight down the loo. KFC, the meal you regret even before you eat it (except for the chips and gravy).

KFC makes a great laxative...

The chips and gravy are worse than the chicken....And the chicken ain't real good either...

KFC comes out of the air fryer better than when you get it at the shop. The skin is actually crispy cause it hasn’t been sitting in a hot box for half an hour before you bought it.
I have to agree, the best way to reheat KFC and pizza is with an air fryer.
@Immortality ,i can see this thread and the coffee thread running there coarse quite quickly, maybe its worth merging them and creating "The Ultimate Household Appliance's" thread, at least there won't be a need for heaps of threads for each household appliance.

Makita may not make an air fryer but they are making one of these Makita Microwave that i won't be able to stop myself from buying

She wanted one of those benchtop air-fryers, because the oven is slow (?), and I knew nothing about them.
Seemed a waste of money to me, so I said so at the store. Just another gadget to find room for, that achieved very little.
Nek minnit ........... I'm forking out for a new wall oven and cooktop. o_O

Well, the new oven and cooktop have been installed, and the first air-fryer experience was frozen fish'n'chips and a pie.
Went by the owners manual for time and temp, which could have been a couple of minutes longer, but a better result than I am used to with the old oven.
She is happy experimenting. Today she is cooking some sort of pie/pizza/omelette thing for lunch.

Haven’t done a frozen pie but for cold pies I microwave it for 50 seconds to take the chill off it and slightly warm the filling then into the air fryer basket 180 for 5 minutes. Bakery fresh.

The pie wasn't frozen when put in. It was bought frozen from a bakery, an then defrosted overnight in the fridge.
I don't think the air-fryer shelf would handle it from frozen. Likely to be burned outside and cold inside.

Frozen pies, 3:30 in the microwave, 3:00 in a preheated air fryer.
