Ninja just super-sized its iconic glass air fryer — and it can do a lot more than just cook chips

• The Ninja Crispi Pro glass air fryer is now available in the UK for £249
• It’s a countertop version of the portable Ninja Crispi with extra features
• These include new Prove, Roast, and Dehydrate cooking modes

Ninja has just launched a new extra-large version of its portable glass air fryer, the Ninja Crispi. Unlike the original Crispi, which was a portable fryer for use on the move (at the office, a hotel room, or anywhere else with a plug socket), the new Ninja Crispi Pro lives in your kitchen where it can cook up family-sized meals. You can even use it to prepare a full Sunday roast without an oven.

Ninja is known for making some of the best air fryers around — including the top-rated Ninja Double Stack — and the Crispi Pro is another winner. It received a near-perfect four and a half stars out of five from our reviewer Karen Freeman when it launched in the US thanks to its “quick and effective cooking” that left vegetables tender and fries crisp.

“I made a dozen different foods, utilizing all of the different cooking modes, and everything I made came out delicious,” Karen wrote in her Ninja Crispi Pro review.

Like the original Crispi, the Crispi Pro cooks your food in non-toxic glass containers. These have removable lids, so you can also use them to store food before cooking and serve it once it’s done. The air fryer comes in two containers as standard (5.7 litres and 2.3 litres), so you can cook and crisp different portions, and other sizes are available to buy separately.

The glassware is dishwasher-safe, too, which is another feature our reviewer particularly appreciated, “so you know they are totally clean” and have heatproof handles so you can safely move them as soon as you’ve finished cooking.

The Ninja Crispi Pro has three new cooking modes that you won’t find on the original Crispi. These include a Prove setting, which provides gentle warmth for proving bread without deactivating the yeast, Roast, which you can use to cook a whole chicken, and Dehydrate for drying fruit or preparing jerky.
