KopiYing, I've got an Electrolux one which costs us less than 60 bucks. Simple two knob thingy - grill/toast and temp; then one for time. Comes with a tray. I like it coz it's able to toast my stuffed mushrooms in 20 minutes flat and I don't have to wait for the oven to be heated like in the conventional kind.

Another brand that I would recommend is Philips. We are into our second unit. Its squarish interior allows me to grill 2 big chicken thigh simultaneously or a medium size pizza. Its same as the Electrolux design, with a crumbs tray, one knob for temp and one for time. Price also about the same as Electrolux.

That’s great! Hopefully I can finish my assignments asap then go town take a lot at these brands.

Recently learned a great tip for cooking fries without frying them.


Peeled and cut up potato into strips or wedges. Dry well with kitchen towel.
Whisk 2 egg whites with pepper/curry powder/5 spice powder and a tablespoon of veg oil.
coat cut potato with the mix and bake in hot (200 degrees C) oven for 12 to 20 mins (depending on the size of the wedges) and yummy fries without the oil.

Serve with a lower calories dip: Whisk low fat/no fat greek yoghut, finely chopped spring onions/chives, squeeze of lemon/lime. If you like it spicy, add a dash of chilli powder/mexican spice/cajun spice.
