Jamie Oliver's air fryer mint choc chip whoopie pie recipe
The Big Lunch – an annual event encouraging communities to come together to share lunch – is back on June 7 and 8. This year, celebrity chefs like Jamie Oliver, Mary Berry, Rick Stein and Tom Kerridge are supporting the campaign to encourage more of us to come together through food. Advertisement A YouGov survey has found that one in seven UK adults (14%) never cook a completely new recipe, so The Big Lunch Recipe Search aims to find the nation's favourite dishes to inspire more of us to cook. Here's a Jamie Oliver recipe for some baking inspiration. Mint choc chip whoopie pies Hands on: 10 minutes, plus chilling Cook: 37 minutes Ingredients: (Serves 8) 1-drawer air fryer 1 x 145g bar of mint Aero 150g full-fat cream cheese 85g unsalted butter 200g self-raising flour 100g caster sugar 3tbsp cocoa powder ½tsp bicarbonate of soda 100g milk or dark chocolate chips 2 medium free-range eggs Advertisement Mint choc chip whoopie pies (David Loftus/PA) Method: 1. To make the filling, snap 120g of Aero into a heatproof bowl and melt in the air fryer for three minutes at 170°C, then stir until smooth and mix in the cream cheese. Cover and leave to firm up in the fridge for at least one hour. 2. Melt the butter in a heatproof bowl for four minutes at 170°C. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa and bicarbonate of soda, then stir through the chocolate chips, mix in the melted butter, then the eggs, until the mixture is well combined. With wet hands, roll into 16 balls and place on a lined baking sheet, pushing them down slightly to flatten. 3. Line the air-fryer shelf with greaseproof paper. Transfer four to six cookies into the drawer, making sure there's a one centimetre gap between them. Cook for 10 minutes at 170°C (12 minutes from chilled or 15 minutes from frozen) then, using the paper to help you, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool, and repeat. 4. Once the cookies are completely cool, sandwich them with the filling, crumbling up the leftover Aero to sprinkle into each one, before sandwiching. Advertisement Get ahead: If not cooking straight away, cover the raw cookies and keep in the fridge for up to two days, or the freezer for up to three months, ready to cook to order! Or, once cooked, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, stashing the filling in the fridge, ready to assemble.

Jamie Oliver shares his three air fryer recipes to try this weekend
Air frying has completely changed the speed and convenience for home cooking – and Jamie Oliver loves it too. 'Without question, it's a super useful piece of cooking equipment,' says the 49-year-old chef, whose latest cookbook is Easy Air Fryer. 'Oven chips are magnificent in the air fryer, but there's so much more to it than that. I wanted to go beyond the usual. 'The air fryer is really useful if you have a family, with kids turning up at different times of the day. Because, let's face it, the idea of the whole family sitting together at the table only happens about twice a week – so, when you have children coming back from after-school clubs hungry, you can bang something in the air fryer and have it on the table in no time at all.' Here are three recipes to try. Posh fish and chips Hands on: 22 minutesCook: 30 minutes2-drawer air fryer Ingredients: (Serves 2) 500g potatoesOlive oil1 free-range egg½tsp smoked paprika10g Parmesan cheese1 thick slice of seeded wholemeal bread (40g)2 x 130g salmon fillets, skin on, scaled, pin-boned, from sustainable sources1tbsp plain flour1 x 340g jar of baby cornichons160g frozen peas2 sprigs of mint Method: 1. Scrub the potatoes, chop lengthways into two centimetre-wedges, place in the large air-fryer drawer, toss with one tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, and arrange in a single layer. Cook for 30 minutes at 200°C, or until golden and cooked through, shaking halfway. 2. Beat the egg, paprika and a little seasoning in a shallow bowl. Finely grate the Parmesan into a food processor, tear in the bread, add one tablespoon of oil and blitz into fine crumbs, then spread across a plate. 3. Dust the salmon with the flour, then dip into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off. Coat in the breadcrumbs, spending a bit of time really patting them on. Evenly space in the small drawer and cook for 10 minutes at 200°C, or until golden and just cooked through. 4. Meanwhile, to make a gherkin ketchup, empty the jar of cornichons, and half their juice, into the food processor and blitz until smooth. Spoon out two portions, then pour the rest back into the jar and pop it in the fridge for future meals, where it will keep happily for up to two weeks. 5. Cook the peas for four minutes in boiling salted water, then drain, reserving a little cooking water. Tip them into the food processor (there's no need to clean it), pick in the mint leaves and blitz, loosening with splashes of reserved water, if needed, then season to perfection and cover to keep warm. 6. Serve up the fish and chips with the minty peas and gherkin ketchup.

Remove the shelf from the air-fryer drawer and go in with the sugar, soy and vinegar, along with 300 millilitres of water. Peel and finely grate in the ginger and garlic, add the cornflour and mix to combine, then replace the shelf. 2. Rub the rack of ribs with a little olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then place it on the shelf (cut it in half to help it fit, if needed). Cook for 50 minutes at 160°C, or until the meat is tender and starting to get gnarly. 3. Use tongs to carefully remove the shelf, tipping the ribs into the sauce, then turn the ribs to coat. Cook for another five minutes at 200°C, or until the sauce sets and darkens on the ribs and the surrounding sauce thickens, too. 4. Slice up the ribs, then trim, finely slice and scatter over the spring onions. Pour the remaining sauce into a bowl, for dunking. Great served with sticky rice and zingy seasonal greens.

Mix together and cook for 40 minutes at 180°C, or until the fruit has softened, stirring halfway. 2. Meanwhile, place the oats in a bowl, cube up and add the remaining butter, then rub together with your thumbs and fingertips. Add the sugar and cinnamon, scrunch in the cornflakes, and mix well. 3. Scatter the crumble mixture over the fruit and cook for another 10 minutes at 180°C, or until golden and bubbling, then dish up straight from the drawer. Great with custard, crème fraîche or ice cream.
