This 480003 model is the cheaper alternative in the Morphy Richards line of health fryers. There are manual controls, instead of digital and it’s a smaller capacity too.

Smaller capacity

If you’re only cooking for 2-4 people most of the time then the smaller capacity model is the ideal choice.

Even cooking

The unit still uses Morphy Richards’ Rapid Air Technology which is just the fancy name given to how the air is heated and circulated. All you need to know is, food is cooked consistently with only a spoonful of oil needed. There’s no rotating paddle or bowl with this fryer, it doesn’t need one as even cooking is achieved by fans which do a great job of circulating the air around the food.

If you’re counting calories then this fryer only uses one spoonful of oil and it’s entirely up to you which cooking oil you decide to use. You’ll be amazed at how crispy and tasty the food comes out of this fryer. Morphy Richards really have done a great job.

Manual controls

Morphy Richards have arguably made this fryer for users who don’t want the complexity of digital controls. Both the timer and temperature settings are controlled by dials situated on the front of the unit. These are simple and easy to use which might suit some people more than others.

Recipes and instructions

In the box you’ll find an instruction booklet which includes some recipes to get you started. Morphy Richards also offer a free app called “Cook and Create” – available on the Apple App Store and Android Store. We’ve downloaded it and there are some fab looking recipes on there – take a look!

Morphy Richards Air fryer – introduction

No doubt you will have heard of the Morphy Richards brands before – it has been established in the UK since 1930’s with a reputation for supplying value for money household appliances.
This Morphy Richards 480001 health fryer has been available on the market since mid 2016 and is a popular choice in kitchens all over the UK.

Let’s take a closer look and see what the 480001 fryer has to offer.

In terms of appearance, this model is of similar look and feel to the Philips HD9220/20 except the Morphy Richards has a digital display, which controls the time and cooking settings.

Extra Large capacity

If family cooking is a requirement in your house then this fryer ticks that box. It has a 3 litre capacity which is sufficient for cooking for up to 4-5 people.

Even cooking

Rapid Air technology is the name given to the how air is circulated in this fryer. It might sound technical but it really is just the way air is circulated inside the fryer during cooking to ensure evenly cooked food. As this model doesn’t have a rotating paddle, even cooking is achieved by fans which do a great job of circulating the air around the food.

If you’re considering buying a health fryer because of a calorie controlled diet then this, along with all of the fryers we review only need one spoonful of cooking oil, for crispy and tasty food. This is great news if you’re looking to lose a few pounds as it means you can still enjoy fried food in your diet – just not the deep fried fatty kind!

Pre-sets for simple cooking

Morphy Richards have done something clever with this fryer – they’ve included pre-set cooking programmes so there’s no need for you to guess temperature and timer settings – it all done for you! Presets include pre-heat, defrost then cook, burgers, chicken, cakes.

A nice surprise!

This fryer has a defrost feature built in meaning you can cook food from frozen. This is the first fryer we’ve reviewed that has a defrost function, so this gets big thumbs up from us. Well done Morphy Richards!

Recipes and Instructions

There’s an instruction book included which has some recipes in it. For further recipes, there’s also a free mobile App called “Cook and Create” – available on the Apple App Store and Android Store. We’ve downloaded it and there are some fab looking recipes on there – take a look!

12hr timer delay

Another useful feature is the 12 hour timer delay. This means you can program the fryer to start cooking at a certain time, so you can come home, after work for example to perfectly cooked food, ready to serve. This is a great time saver, especially if you live a busy life where time is of the essence.

Touch screen display

The modern display is fully touch screen – just like a smart phone device. Simply touch the display to adjust the different settings. The controls are easy to see and use, however elderly users may get a little confused with the program settings.

What’s the difference between this 480001 model and the 480002 Morphy Richards health fryers?

The main unit is the same, but the 480002 comes with extra accessories, namely a cake tin and grill tray. You can find the 480002 model on Amazon here.

Non-stick

The non-stick coating on the basket is a nice feature which makes cleaning much easier after cooking. Not all fryers come with a non-sticking on the cooking basket/tray but we’re pleased to see it here on the Morphy Richards.

Cleaning up

You’ll be pleased to hear that the washable components can be washed in a dishwasher and the main unit can easily be cleaned with a damp cloth.

Buyer feedback

Lots of positive reviews on Amazon to report!

Some buyers expected a faster cooking time, comparing it to a deep fat fryer. Well, this is NOT a deep fat fryer of course and cooking times will be different. However, you are getting food cooked in a much healthier way, with way less saturated fat. Yes, food will take a few minutes longer than a deep fat fryer, but think of the fewer calories you’ll be consuming!

Buyers are very pleased with the even cooking this fryer does, as well as the capacity, which allows catering for 4-6 people depending on appetite.

It’s also ideal for rustling up quick meals for the kids – sausage and chips? No problem – ready in about 20 short minutes!

Buyer’s like the stylish look of the fryer, complementing kitchens and blending in well.
