Making small changes to the way you cook you can really make a difference to the energy bill. Research by energy supplier Utilita shows that households reliant on oven cooking could save up to £ per year by switching to more energy-efficient cooking methods. In other words, use the right appliance for the task — this will depend on what you're cooking and how many you are cooking for.

They are often much more energy efficient than using an oven as they cook food much more quickly - often in half the time," she says. In the consumer insights tracker at the Food Standards Agency more than six in ten of us are using cheaper cooking methods such as using a microwave , air fryer or slow cooker to reduce energy bills and save money.

However, predictions for the following winter months, from January to March, currently suggest that the price cap will then rise again over the colder period," says Natalie.

With this in mind, what practical steps can we all take when cooking to cut back on energy costs? Read on for answers to some commonly asked questions about energy efficient cooking. If you'd like more great money reads, SIGN UP HERE for our fortnightly Financially Fabulous newsletter!

SIGN UP. One of the biggest energy drains in your home is the oven. Energy company Utilita suggests an electric oven can add as much as £ to your energy bills per year. And emergency home and boiler cover company Hometree estimate the cost of using the oven at £1 an hour.

If you have a microwave, slow cooker or air fryer, you could switch to one of these depending on the task and save money.

For instance Air fryers are like mini convection ovens the name is a bit of a misnomer so are speedier to heat up and cook, which means they work out cheaper. Typical usage cost is around 6p, according to the EST.

Typical cost per use for a conventional oven is 24p. Typical cost per use is 4p. Designed to cook food slowly over longer periods, expect typical usage to be around 23p. The oven will always be the mainstay of preparing family meals and there are tactics to use that will avoid wasting energy.

Rather than switching the oven on several times a day, plan your cooking schedule carefully. Slide in a traybake as you pull out a main meal and you can avoid pre-heating the oven twice. Residual heat is energy which would otherwise be wasted but can be useful. You can use it to warm food, potentially saving energy.

In some circumstances, you might also be able to use the residual heat to finish cooking food, or to save energy by not pre-heating the oven. Home cooked meals are a great opportunity to cook in bulk. Use the hob just once for a big pan of chilli or curry, then freeze cooled leftovers to eat later or use as a base for another meal.

Once cooked and cooled, portion the meals up and freeze them. Slow cookers save us money and hands-on time in the kitchen, and they are also a gift for batch cooking. Try to use the low heat setting as much as possible.

These can be perfect for work lunches or speedy suppers. Look out for reductions in the fresh vegetable section of your supermarket for batch soup recipes.

Slow-cooked meals often mean using a cheaper cut of meat, too. Pork shoulder is often a cheaper cut of meat and can be used in pulled pork burgers, stirred into a jar of your favourite pasta sauce for a quick and easy ragu.

Or even spiced up and served with nachos, topped with melted cheese and jalapenos. Your labelled tubs or bags of batch-cooked meals can be defrosted in the fridge and re-heated in the microwave - no need to use the oven! A microwave costs approximately 14p per day to run, compared to an oven which costs 87p.

To save more energy, leave the meal to defrost before putting it in the microwave. It pays to be organised: take food out of the freezer the night before and leave to defrost in the fridge overnight or until it is thawed.

A well-stocked freezer runs better than one which is empty. Defrost your freezer whenever you see ice building up, and avoid leaving the fridge or freezer door open longer than necessary. In a word, yes.

Utilita research puts the average annual cost of using the microwave at just £ Soups, stews with small pieces of meat or no meat at all , and even risottos are all good options for microwave cookery.

My favourite thing to do in a microwave however is jacket potatoes, as it massively speeds up the cooking time. A simple homemade oat cookie, flapjack or a cake that lasts in a tin for a few days will satisfy a sweet tooth. Cut into small pieces so it lasts longer and is cost effective.

Pop a stalk in a container of fresh water in a sunny spot in the kitchen and, with any luck, the stalk should reshoot with micro lettuce leaves after four to five days — that's enough to put in a sandwich.

This works especially well with the living lettuces that are sold with their roots. Use a blender or food processor to whizz up banana ice cream using sliced and frozen overripe banana, chop herbs for freezing or turn some never-going-to-ripen tomatoes into a purée which you can also freeze.

Knowing what is in your freezer, fridge and store cupboard will ensure you let nothing go to waste or end up buying anything in duplicate, which is a waste of money.

Make sure you know the difference between best-before and use-by dates. Use-by dates indicate a period when food is no longer safe to eat and should always be adhered to. They're usually found on perishable goods and it may be dangerous to consume them past that date.

Best-before dates indicate the optimum quality of an ingredient — the items are safe to consume past this date but may not be in peak condition. Cook Smart is a supportive campaign developed by BBC Good Food to bring together knowledge and ideas on how to help everyone eat well on a budget.

Autumn and winter, typically mean more hot dinners and nothing beats a warming dish for making you feel cosy on a cold or dreary day. But with the cost of electricity and gas rocketing, how can you make these meals with as least cost as possible?

As you can see from this table from Utilita, back in , there are considerable financial savings to be had in changing the way we cook. If unit prices have changed, for the better or worse! we will still see the same relative savings. And saving CO2 emissions at the same time. I already own a microwave and a very old slow-cooker that has seen many years of use.

I borrowed an air fryer from my mum for this experiment and tried to use these three methods of cooking as much as possible to create our usual family dinners, as opposed to my electric cooker and hob. I used to use my oven and hob to cook most meals, with the microwave mostly used for reheating.

The slow cooker tended to be saved for casseroles and stews and used only occasionally. Cooking the accompaniments like rice in the microwave and pasta in a saucepan on the hob towards the end of the cooking process meant that we had our usual meal at a much reduced cost.

Soups worked out really well, so easy to prepare and leave on low for around 6 hours. The house smelt amazing all day and meal times felt more organised too with the preparation taking place in the morning! I also cooked using the air fryer -fell in love with it immediately!

It takes just a minute or two to warm up and I cooked so many different types of roast root vegetables, and courgettes, squashes etc. So much quicker and crispier than using the oven and using much less oil too.

Grilled chicken, chips and also jacket potatoes were also a great success. Anyway, put it this way- I will be getting one for myself when my mum asks for hers back!

Here's a list of some of my air fryer dishes in the last few weeks:. I was able to create a couple of simple complete meals using the air fryer in a fraction of the time it would have taken in an oven.

I did invest a while ago in a microwaveable sauce pan and used it for veggies to accompany our meals, it worked really well for most vegetables.

It was quick and mess free. I already owned a microwave rice cooker, so we used that and it's quicker than cooking rice on the hob.

We also tried mug cakes and cookies and these were reasonable if not quite as nice as oven baked. Cooking in the oven is expensive because it's so big and you have to heat up the whole oven structure and the air and shelving inside - that requires a lot of energy to get it to a high enough temperature to cook in.

An air fryer is so much smaller and quicker to heat up but it has the limitation of being small. I recommend saving the use of your oven for when you are going to be cooking a lot of food that will take up space.

And make sure to make the most of the space and the time it is on. In our Green Guide we recommended:. When you have the oven turned on, fill every shelf. Sweet potato and carrot peelings can be crisped up when you have the oven on for cooking dinner! They make a tasty snack with a bit of oil and salt in place of packets of crisps, or if you have chickens feed them plain cooked peelings.

If you only have one thing to heat up, use your microwave instead — it uses significantly less electricity than heating your oven. When using your oven, set the timer for 5 minutes before the cooking time and turn the oven off. It takes a long time for ovens to cool so it will carry on cooking.

After cooking, fill your dirty baking trays or cooking dishes with soapy water and return to the oven — they will clean themselves and steam clean the inside of your oven — with no elbow grease.

icon-X Close menu. Cleaning Products. Home Accessories. This information should be on the label or any manual that came with your appliance. For example: a microwave may have a power rating of W and you may run it for three minutes.

Of course, when it comes to more specific appliances — slow cookers, pressure cookers, soup makers and so on — comparing energy use is fairly meaningless.

A good general rule, when shopping for new kit, is to look for the best energy rating for the size of kit you need. Another key point to consider is that rapidly rising energy prices means past calculations as to how much an appliance costs to run are fast becoming outdated.

A smart meter tells you how much your appliances cost in pounds and pence accurate to your tariff and the current price of energy, thereby enabling you to monitor which appliance is costing you the most so you can minimise your use of it. The following guide should be a useful primer for cooking as efficiently as possible going forward, but there is something you can do right now that will have a real tangible impact, says Welling: turn your appliances off at the wall — even your oven and microwave, if you can be bothered.

This is because no energy is wasted heating the space around the pan. Also worth bearing in mind — from a cost and waste perspective — is that if you change to induction, you'll have the upfront cost of replacing all your pans and pots with induction compatible ones.

The same rule applies to ovens as to hobs: gas is cheaper than electric but electric is more efficient. Slow cookers are making a comeback — and with good reason, says Welling.

These counter-top appliances are effectively miniature fan ovens but can potentially save you time, money on your energy bills and space in the kitchen thanks to the versatility of functions and cooking efficiency.

The compact size means they're quicker to heat up than traditional ovens and can circulate hot air more efficiently around food.

The result is dinner cooked quicker. For particular dishes, air fryers can save you having to switch on your gas oven at all. Discover our full collection of air fryer recipes. Read our reviews of the best air fryers and the best air fryer accessories.
