Kenwood MultiPro Go food processor

Best food processor

Star rating: 5/5

Despite its compact footprint, the 1.3L capacity of this Kenwood sits between a mini-chopper and a large food processor, making it an easy-to-store and practical addition to the cupboard. The powerful little motor dices, slices and grates, plus it comes with an express serve bowl attachment for processing ingredients directly into a bowl or pan.

It’s a fast and simple way to process fresh ingredients whatever the season, such as for courgette fritters, for blitzing fresh aromatics like ginger, turmeric and garlic to freeze in bulk, or for light dishes like this shredded greens salad.

KitchenAid K400 blender

Best blender

Star rating: 4.5/5

A glass-jug blender is an excellent kitchen assistant for helping make delicious soups, drinks, sauces and more. You have total control for adjusting the flavour and texture of recipes to your taste, while also adapting ingredients if you have dietary requirements. Plus they can save you money on shop-bought versions in the long run.

This blender’s glass jug has handy ml and oz measuring notches and is dishwasher-friendly on the top shelf. It’s perfect for blending hot soups and sauces as well as cold drinks.

Blenders are usually packed with power, making them superior to stick blenders for blitzing thicker ingredients. This unlocks recipes including acai bowls, nut butters like almond and sunflower, low-fat and low-sugar ‘nice’ creams like our quick banana ice cream, and no-cook green pasta sauces using fresh, fibrous ingredients.

Fridja F1900 juicer

Best juicer

Star rating: 4.5/5

Juicing can be a great way to use up any leftover seasonal fruit and veg, while controlling what goes into your juices to minimise sugar. Juicers can also save you money in the long-term over buying shop-bought cold-press juices. This Fridja model is one of the most affordable on the market and can even be used to make sorbet, ice cream and nut milks.

Ninja Speedi 10-in-1 rapid cooker

Best air fryer

Star rating: 4.5/5

Air fryers are effectively hyper-efficient mini ovens and can create a crisp exterior on food without the need for any oil. They’re a more economical way to cook small quantities than heating your traditional oven and could save you money on your electricity bills when used strategically.

They are usually multifunctional, so can save you storage space as well as money versus buying multiple appliances. This Ninja model has air-frying among its 10 cooking functions and has a nice contemporary look on the countertop.

Le Creuset Signature cast iron Grillit

Best cast-iron pan

Griddle pans are great at achieving delicious char lines and sealing in flavour, while allowing excess fat to drain off to the sides. This works particularly well when cooking meat, but works well with watery vegetables too. Non-stick or cast-iron griddle pans help to further reduce the oil required by building a non-stick patina over time.

With the right care, a cast-iron pan will last you a lifetime. The Grillet’s non-stick capabilities only improve with use. It’s oven-safe up to 250C and can be used in pizza ovens, on your BBQ or even over a campfire. It’s an investment piece but worth the money.

Habitat healthy eating salad spinner

Best salad spinner

Star rating: 3.5/5

Salad spinners aren’t just for salads, they’re also great for preparing soft fruits and fresh herbs, which are easily bruised. This one doubles as a practical salad bowl and a lidded storage container. It works like a spin dryer, whizzing water off from its contents using centrifugal force.
