Product Information

Next, I tested the most touted feature of the Speedi, its Speedi Meal function, using the recipe for turkey meatloaf with cheesy riced cauliflower from the accompanying booklet. The instructions were easy to follow, the food cooked in the half hour recommended in the recipe, and the meal turned out exactly as pictured. First and ALWAYS use the Ninja Speedi Guide and Recipe Book to get your feet wet while using the machine. This is going to always be my first suggestion. Cooking weeknight meals just got a whole lot speedier - and tastier - thanks to Ninja's innovative Speedi 10-in-1 Rapid Cooker. So much more than a regular multi-cooker, you can cook three different parts of your meal in ten different ways, in as little as 15 minutes* - just because you're short on time, doesn't mean you have to compromise on delicious, home-cooked meals. I was also impressed with how well it broiled. However, I found most of the other functions of minimal benefit. For baking, you’re better off using a conventional oven, and for searing and sautéing, a skillet. Default temperatures and times are suggested for each setting, but there are arrows to adjust both, which are clearly displayed and very responsive to touch. No double taps necessary to go up or down.

I was happy with the final result. The liquid from the kebabs drips through onto the rice a little, so just be aware that what you cook on top will slightly come through to the bottom layer. That shouldn’t be an issue, as it is one meal that you’re making. Everything I've cooked so far has followed the format of protein in the top (salmon was a favourite with the grown ups and done in just 8 minutes, a new record and no smell of fish afterwards) and then a carbohydrate like pasta, rice or bulgur wheat in the bottom but as my confidence has built I'm looking to branch out. At about 14 inches square and 12 inches high, the Ninja Speedi takes up a big chunk of countertop space. It fits below a cabinet when it’s closed but not with the lid raised. That means when you’re using it, you have to pull it forward. The main difference between the Ninja Speedi and the Ninja Foodi is that the Ninja Foodi has a pressure cooker function, which the Ninja Speedi does not. I've not switched my oven on in over a week saving a significant chunk in gas usage, we're all eating much more healthily and my husband and I spending considerably less time in the evening having to clean the kitchen.It steams a small portion of vegetables well but then so does a microwave. While it slow cooks, it doesn’t create the melt-in-your mouth results that you typically get from slow cooking. We took it function by function to see how each one performs. Here is a summary of our testing process, and what we thought of each function.

What's more, despite having made space for it in a cupboard the Speedi hasn't actually been put away since it arrived.We like to keep an 8-inch cake pan on hand along with some smaller pans so that we can do a variety of meals in the Ninja Speedi. What can you make in the Ninja Speedi? Slow Cook - Slowly cook food at a lower temperature for tender results - perfect for pulled pork, veggie chilli and more. Although the exterior gets warm on some functions, it always remains cool enough to touch without risking a burn. That’s a definite advantage for anyone working in tight kitchen spaces who wants a multipurpose machine like this on their counter. What we don’t like The commercial-looking design isn't an attractive countertop staple Speedi Meals - The perfect programme for cooking one-pot meals. Build your own Speedi Meal by choosing a base grain and layering with vegetables, meat or fish, and other flavours - this dedicated pre-set programme does the rest. For instance, one of my personal favorites is this Ninja Foodi Pumpkin Bread, it can easily be made in the Ninja Speedi with the Bake Function just as it was in the Ninja Foodi.

From the outside, the Ninja Speedi looks much like the company’s other air fryer/grill combination products, such as the Ninja AG651UK. In truth, the Speedi, despite the focus on its 15-minute meals, is a similar product in most regards. I also like the flexibility. One night, I used the bottom layer to cook rice. Towards the end of the cooking period, I added some pre-cooked onions, pepper and sliced steak, reheating them. Once finished, I removed half of the rice, and used that with a Thai green curry. In the Flanders house it's a definitely four thumbs up all round, with Ninja moving air fryer technology into a revolutionary new direction. Utilize your Ninja Speedi to make a variety of Ninja Speedi Recipes, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert! Any baking pans can be used in the Ninja Speedi that would normally be used in the oven as long as they fit the Ninja Speedi.With two children in the house, ours dinners tend to either be ready meals or several shades of beige. The underside of the lid gets dirty. To clean it, you run a steam cycle which loosens debris and makes it easier to wipe down. You can’t burn yourself on the exterior
