Jamie Oliver's air fryer cookbook is the one we've been waiting for – and it's half-price

Independent10-02-2025

Whether it's a dual-zone Ninja model or a budget buy from Aldi, the buzz around air fryers shows no signs of waning in 2025. And if you're short on recipe inspiration, Jamie Oliver has come to the rescue with his first-ever air fryer cookbook.
Following his hugely popular Channel 4 cooking show, the TV chef has not only launched a limited-edition air fryer in collaboration with Tefal but he's also released Easy Air Fryer (was £26, now £13, Amazon.co.uk),a book with advice on prepping, cooking and how to take your appliance to the next level.
Innovative recipes include sticky aubergine noodles and pear and blackberry crumble (yes, both sweet and savoury dishes can easily be rustled up in an air fryer), as well as teriyaki pork ribs, smoked haddock pakoras and meatballs.
With chapters spanning quick fixes, new classics, veg, salads, canapes, baking and puddings, there's inspiration for every meal time. And, as you'd expect, the recipes promise to be accessible and time-saving. Best of all, it steps away from the stereotypical beige food associated with air fryers.
The cookbook is out now and you can currently save 50 per cent on orders – here's how.
It's just been released but Easy Air Fryer is already on sale and currently half-price when ordering thanks to Amazon.
Helping you make the most of your air fryer, the book features 80 recipes, including everything from chilli con carne meatballs to falafel burgers, as well as tips and hacks for everything from quick midweek meals to indulgent weekend food.
'I hope the wide range of recipes here will inspire you to think a bit differently about your machine, whether you're an air fryer novice or in need of new ideas, let this book start you on your journey to new air fryer territory. You're going to love it!' said Jamie Oliver.

The secrets to looking as good as Liz Hurley at 60

'Mummy, actress, model, farmer, bikini designer': that's how Elizabeth Hurley describes herself on her Instagram bio, and who are we to contradict? Though if we may, we'd also like to add 'national institution who has been enlivening the news cycle since 1994, when she stole every front page in That black safety-pin Versace dress'. 'National institution' is not, one fears, a phrase that would find favour with the perennially youthful and ebullient Liz. It makes her sound venerable, yes, but also rather staid, something that Hurley is decidedly not. Everyone celebrates their 60th birthday in different ways, and Hurley seems to have chosen to mark hers by ageing backwards, though not in a Kris Jenner way. Yes, she's genetically blessed to be a quintessential English rose, but more compelling than her looks is her lust for life, and her enthusiasm for living it fully. Whether she's sauntering along a tropical beach in her self-designed bikini, fronting a new reality TV show (Channel 4's The Deceased), larking around with her lookalike son, Damian, or hard launching her new relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus, Hurley's joie de vivre is infectious. Here's how to be more Liz, whatever your age or relationship status. Don't be afraid of bold style choices If anyone subscribes to the notion that you can wear anything at 60, it's Hurley, whose glamorous, high-octane style has only amplified with age. If it's figure-hugging, bright and shows off her famous décolletage, she's on board. Her go-to designers are Versace, Valentino and Tom Ford-era Gucci, but when it comes to swimwear, she always wears Elizabeth Hurley Beach, the swimwear brand she launched in 2005. 'Elizabeth has a perfect eye for fashion,' says Mike Adler, who's been her stylist for red carpet events, tours and special projects since 2018. 'Her signature style always remains glamorous with ultra clean lines. A formal look centres around a brilliant cut, a bold, bright colour and a favourable neckline or deep plunge. She's always incredibly supportive of designers and their craft, and appreciative of being able to present with total confidence in the public eye. 'She's also sustainably aware, re-wearing iconic pieces from her own wardrobe. During our recent Oscars fitting, Elizabeth pulled out an incredible archive Versace gown, as appealing today as when she first wore it. Not only did the dress still fit like a glove – but in comparing the red carpet photo from 30 years ago, she looked even better now.' Avoid a high-UPF diet In January 2024, she detailed in an Instagram post how she avoids junk food, which she defined as 'anything that contains any ingredient that I don't have in my own kitchen'. Adding: 'My tastes are pretty simple – I don't drink weird green juices or anything like that. My mantra is: don't eat too much, too fast, too often or too late. Or, put another way, eat smaller meals, chew properly, ban snacking, and eat dinner earlier. This works for me.' She also ensures that fruit and vegetables take up half her plate with every meal. Crucially, she isn't abstemious, making a loaf of bread every day, and cakes on weekends. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Elizabeth Hurley (@elizabethhurley1) Get into the garden Ever the pragmatist, Hurley prefers walking in nature to sweating it out in a spin class. 'I don't go to the gym, but I do a lot of gardening...' she told The Telegraph last year. 'I don't really sit still very much.' Perhaps this is where we're going wrong. Forget cutting out carbs after 7pm: we simply need to rake more leaves and weed more. A fan of 'found fitness', she likes to incorporate exercise into her everyday routine, doing squats while she brushes her teeth to tone her legs, then walking her dogs for 20 minutes to get her blood pumping. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Elizabeth Hurley (@elizabethhurley1) Tweak the shade of your hair Like many women approaching 60 (or even 40), Hurley has lightened the dark brown tresses of her youth into a rich caramel bronde whose shade has largely remained consistent for decades. Warm, flattering and sun-kissed, it's coloured using a 'ring lighting' technique that frames the face with highlights, acting like a low-maintenance soft filter. How to get the look? 'Keeping those greys away can be a real chore, but adding a few very fine micro lights near the root and broader beach lights near the face, plus choosing a base colour that is natural and a shade or two lighter than one's own original colour is key to a flattering effect,' says the celebrity colourist Josh Wood. 'Adding gloss and shine is also important, as the texture of grey can be very wiry, so keeping the hair looking hydrated is paramount.' For those not in possession of Hurley's thick hair, help is but a hair extension away. Hadley Yates salon in London specialises in a full yet natural look. 'For a DIY solution I'd recommend the Curated Hair Extensions full-head clip-in, which come in 16in and 20in lengths and add instant volume,' Yates suggests. 'For maximum shine, Redken's Acidic Colour Gloss, £33, is an at-home treatment which locks in glass-like shine by sealing your cuticles and restoring the hair back to its healthiest PH.' Moisturiser, moisturiser, moisturiser 'The one thing I swear by is moisturiser – and lots of it,' she told Woman & Home magazine. 'I'll moisturise my face about six times a day and my neck about 10 times a day.' Her favourites include La Mer, £135, and Estée Lauder's Advance Night Repair serum, £55, which she's been using religiously ever since becoming an Estée Lauder spokesperson in the mid-Nineties. For her body, she favours Clinique's Deep Comfort moisturiser (£39). While she's open about her skincare routine, she's not on the record as having had any extra help. 'Facially, Liz appears refreshed and natural,' notes Dr Manav Bawa, a cosmetic doctor and medical director at Time Clinic on behalf of Allergan Aesthetics. 'Subtle signs might suggest she's had light Botox treatments, dermal fillers like Juvederm to restore facial volume, and possibly skin boosters or injectable hydrators to hydrate and tighten the skin.' He suggests that those looking to replicate Hurley's glow at home should focus on products featuring vitamin C and retinol. Treatment-wise, they could also try biostimulation and regenerative treatments such as HarmonyCa to enhance the skin's own healing and renewal processes. 'These approaches can help maintain a rejuvenated, naturally fresh appearance without the risk of looking 'done'.' Body-wise, Hurley's even-toned skin could be achieved with the help of medical-grade microneedling with radiofrequency or laser skin tightening, which can stimulate collagen production and improve elasticity. 'Regular exfoliation and the use of active body skincare, such as glycolic acid lotions, also help maintain a youthful, luminous skin tone at home, although the most powerful product in Liz's skincare arsenal is likely a high-quality broad-spectrum SPF,' says Bawa. Make the effort with your make-up 'Actors and models must spend the equivalent of years in the make-up chair,' Hurley posted on Instagram. Unlike many women in the public eye, she's honest about the time it takes to reach Peak Liz, acknowledging that there's no quick fix. 'I work for a cosmetic company, I work for fashion companies, I have my own fashion company, I'm in high definition on massive cinema screens,' she once said. 'So it's my business to make more effort ... of course I do, it's my bread and butter.' Hurley's not averse to wearing a full face of make-up, and really carries it off. Her trademark look – a smoky eye composed of black kohl liner, shimmering grey eyeshadow, soft pink blush and shiny pale pink lip gloss – is part Hollywood siren, part Brit on a big night out. A close friend of Trinny Woodall for over 30 years (she calls her 'Trinster'), it's likely she uses Trinny London's Eye2Eye cream-based colour in Chalice (£20), and her Line2Define smudge-proof eyeliner in Shahrose (£24). Hurley also has the distinction of having a lipstick named after her and formulated in her honour: Estée Lauder's Elizabeth Hurley Pink 391 Rouge Cristal. It's sadly discontinued, though if you have $98 (£72) to spare, there's one currently for sale on eBay. Liz Hurley's 10 most memorable style moments By Jessica Burrell

Noel Edmonds devastated over horror disease as he makes TV comeback

After leaving the UK, Noel Edmonds has delved into his passion for farming. But despite his experience on his own farm, he's haunted by the foot and mouth disease outbreak in 2001. Noel Edmonds was personally affected by the deadly outbreak of foot and mouth disease back in 2001. He's been the face of Channel 4 's Deal Or No Deal, a fixture on Top Of The Pops and one of the most recognisable names in British television. Now, at the age of 76, Noel Edmonds is embarking on a new adventure – and he's filmed it all for ITV. ‌ The presenter first settled in Auckland, New Zealand 's busiest city, but it wasn't quite the serene escape he had hoped for. Craving stillness, he and his wife Liz eventually bought land in Ngatimoti, at the top of South Island. 'The Tasman region is stunning,' Noel says. 'Nelson is our nearest city, though it feels more like a large town. We're very happy here.' ‌ Essex-born Noel's love of the land stems from childhood and his memories of summers spent in Carlisle with his Aunt Muriel. His enthusiasm later developed into a passion for ethical farming. 'When my career took off and I could afford a nice house, I bought one with 10 acres. I later bought more land, and by the late 70s or early 80s, I'd started farming,' he says. After the devastation of the 2001 foot and mouth disease outbreak in Devon, which paralysed the farming industry, Noel became an advocate for animal welfare. 'It means treating livestock with respect,' Noel says. "One of the core principles of ethical farming is respect for livestock. My passion and determination partly comes from my experience in Devon in 2001, during the foot and mouth disease (FMD) outbreak. That year taught me a lot - especially relevant to recent years with flu outbreaks and government responses to major health issues." Luxury hotel offering Elemis spa treatment with a free £101 beauty gift In Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure, Noel lifts the lid on his life down under in New Zealand. Noel and his wife Liz made the move in 2019, and it was as instinctive as it was life-changing. ‌ 'Our first holiday was to New Zealand, and it was a fantastic trip,' he remembers. 'We stayed in a couple of luxury lodges, but also in B&Bs and farm stays. We began to understand the Kiwi way of life. We returned to the UK thinking this could be our future.' Things rapidly unfolded. The end of Deal Or No Deal – after an extraordinary 3,000 episodes – marked the end of one chapter and the beginning of another for Noel. Looking back, he says, 'It was a punishing schedule but a fabulous period of my life. Without Deal, I wouldn't have met Liz.' Noel and Liz have also launched a hospitality business with a vineyard, pub, restaurant and a supermarket. But for his new show, the focus shifts towards something even more ambitious. ‌ The couple want to create New Zealand's first energy garden – a pioneering project that blends biodiversity, community and sustainability into one regenerative living space. In the series, Noel will tackle hands-on challenges, meet inspirational locals and try to navigate day-to-day life in some seriously wild weather. 'The weather here has an attitude,' Noel says. 'Oh, and earthquakes. We've had three.' But he's made friends for life. 'We've been lucky. We've met some incredible people and they've welcomed us. They're glad we came. We're grateful to be here.'

Beth, review: a baffling and muddled sci-fi drama about race and IVF

Beth is Channel 4's first 'digital original drama'. What does this mean? Your guess is as good as mine. But it's being shown as a 45-minute programme on regular television and in 15-minute mini-episodes on YouTube. 'Truly groundbreaking,' says the man from Channel 4. Hmm. The thinking seems to be that young people with chronically short attention spans watch YouTube, and Channel 4 needs young people. In which case, they've made a baffling choice of subject, because does anyone under the age of 30 want to watch a stifling drama about a couple going through IVF? It's billed as a sci-fi thriller, which piques the interest a bit. Think of it as an undercooked episode of Black Mirror. Joe and Molly (Nicholas Pinnock and Abbey Lee) have been trying for a baby. They've had multiple rounds of fertility treatment and multiple miscarriages. Now at the end of the road, they're told by their doctor that there is a chance they could conceive naturally. 'Once you remove the stress and strain, miracles can happen. That's the irony with IVF,' he explains. He also puts his hand on Molly's knee in the consulting room, which we are invited to find a bit suspicious. Is there something going on between those two? When Molly does get pregnant, and the baby arrives – white and bearing no resemblance to Joe – the question hanging in the air is: who's the father? We skip from the labour room to a few years later. You may be wondering where the sci-fi element kicks in, and the answer is about five minutes from the end. The big reveal is bizarre. Until then, though, it is just a little bit odd. Molly's mother becomes unnaturally freaked out by a child's drawing. There is some business with a wall clock. As for the title, I still have no idea who Beth is. Film-maker Uzo Oleh has a background in high-end fashion photography and he has crafted something that looks beautiful, not least because Lee is a model who has appeared on the cover of Vogue. As an entry into television writing and directing, it's a promising start, but too hung up on the visuals. The tone is arty. The casting is a problem, because while the talented Pinnock acts like a regular guy invested with a full range of human emotions, Lee is at an icy remove even in scenes where she's supposed to be full of warmth. At times, as Molly and Joe wear their expensive clothes in a tasteful apartment, a couple supposedly in love but displaying about as much emotional connection as Nick Robinson and Emma Barnett on the Today programme, it reminded me of Eyes Wide Shut. It helps to watch it twice, once you've seen the twist. But when the emphasis is on the convenience of 15-minute instalments, will anybody have the time to do that?
