They found the pressure cooker was both the cheapest and quickest way of roasting it, taking 32 minutes and costing a tiny lip - 28p cheaper than the electric oven. But unlike the oven, it fell short on getting achieving one of the highlights of the Christmas roast - the brown, crispy skin.The air fryer also cooked the chicken's skin nicely but gave perfect tender meat, all for just 18p and in underan hour. Additionally, if you ditched the oven and used an air fryer for every Sunday roast for the rest of the year, using the gadget would equate to an annual saving of £11.The testers did note that the chicken cooked in the electric oven was also a little dry, meaning the air fryer came out on top over all other appliances.The cost savings will soon be lost if you have to cook more than one batch though, so it's still better to use your oven if you're cooking large quantities.However, the slow cooker received a bonus point for requiring less handson attention, and was therefore the most convenient.1.
