Cooking With The Stars viewers were left outraged as they complained over the latest ITV challenge.
The show sees eight celebrities paired with a professional chef, who acts as their mentor.
Fans of the cookery show raged ‘are you joking’ as the six remaining stars attempted to cook roast beef and a Yorkshire pudding in an air fryer.
While air fryers have become a popular household appliance in recent years, viewers were not impressed and argued that using them didn’t qualify as cooking.
Flocking to social media, one penned: ‘Banging stuff in an air fryer isn’t cooking. #cookingwiththestars.’
‘Bring on the battle of the Air fryers #CookingWithTheStars.’; ‘F*****g air frying? Are you joking.’

‘Nope, #cookingwiththestars I don’t think roast beef & Yorkshire pudding is an air fryer thing.
‘How are you going to get a decent gravy?’
‘Taking the absolute p*** now – air fryers?!’
The show, which first aired back in 2021, is hosted by Emma Willis and Tom Allen.
There have been 24 episodes across four series since then.
The show sees famous faces battle it out to cook the tastiest dish and whoever lands in the bottom two will have to fight it out.
Whoever loses the blind tasting judgment from the professional chefs is voted out.
Speaking ahead of her hosting stint earlier this month, Emma previously said: ‘I’m absolutely delighted to be back in the kitchen for another series of Cooking With The Stars.
‘Every year our celebrities throw themselves into it, and this new line-up is no exception.
