MJ’s Diner owner Noel Davis said: “Over 12.5 million households are using air fryers, and after a discussion with my family in which they were championing air fryers and how many times a week they use them – I just suddenly thought we have the perfect products, the development and distribution network, and the contacts to launch this and with much success.

“We’ve ensured that we have selected some top British ‘fakeaway’ favourites in the range and included everything individuals need, so the gravy comes in its own sachet, as does the salt and pepper seasoning, and after just 15 minutes cooking time many of them are ready to enjoy! The range is a no-brainer for time-poor Brits. It’s cheaper, quicker, healthier, and far higher quality than ordering in – every time.”
