Black Tefal Optigrill

A new year means people all over the world are making New Year’s resolutions to eat healthier, exercise more and generally take better care of their health.

One way to make the healthy eating part easier is by grilling your food – lean cuts of meat or even vegetables can be grilled with no effort with the Tefal Optigrill, a product which has been sitting on my kitchen counter top since I was sent one for review last June. I’ve been using my Optigrill grill regularly ever since, and as I’m currently trying to shift the few extra pounds put on in 2014 I use it even more.

Tefal Optigrill ChickenOne of my current favourite dishes is to marinade some chicken breasts in a little olive oil mixed with Chipotle seasoning, press the on button on my Optigrill, wait for it to beep that it’s ready, plonk the marinated chicken breasts on the tray, close the lid and wait. Served sliced with some protein-rich quinoa and a generous helping of steamed vegetables it’s a perfect, filling, low calorie meal.

Besides cooking meat perfectly it’s super easy to clean; just wait for the Optigrill to cool, disassemble the cooking plates and put them in the dishwasher along with the drip tray. No fuss!

The Tefal Optigrill uses “Automatic Sensor Cooking” technology which immediately detects the number of items placed on the grill and their thickness, and adjusts the temperature and cooking time automatically.  An indicator light allows you to monitor your cooking directly: Blue then green at the start of cooking, then yellow when the food is rare, orange when it is medium and red if you like your food well-done.

  • 6 cooking programmes (red meat, poultry, fish, sausages, hamburgers and sandwiches/panini or bacon) to automatically adapt the temperature to each type of food and cook it perfectly.
  • 2 cooking modes: one for frozen food, plus a manual mode that lets you cook anything the way you want.
  • 600cm2 cooking surface (capacity 2 to 4 people), with non-stick die-cast aluminium plates.
  • Large juice tray and 7° angled plates to ensure the cooking juices run off.

The Tefal Optigrill now comes in a gorgeous, sleek black colour, and I am delighted to announce that they have offered one of my readers the chance to win one!

    I cook a nice steak for my fella to butter him up – then remind him he ‘promised’ me I could get another dog

    All sorts, I have a baby about to be weaned, a toddler, a fussy husband and I’m trying to follow a diet plan, so any extra help in the kitchen would be appreciated! A healthy fry up sounds nice .. & toasted sandwiches 🙂

    What wouldn’t I cook in it?!!…..I think I’d get a lot of use out of this, I would certainly cook chicken breasts, salmon fillets, steak, bacon, sausages…..you name it, I think I’d cook it in the Tefal Optigrill!!

    I’d make some of my famous chorizo burgers and grill those so they were at least slightly good for me but with all the same taste! With a bit of chipotle mayo.

    gluten free beef burgers purely for me, so nothing else will contaminate my food. And the others can eat gluten free as well!

    Vegetarian items. I let my husband have sole use of my George Foreman grill as he is a meat eater, so would have more fat. I would love something like this

    I’d start with 1/4lb beefburgers but quickly move to chicken fillets and steaks – this grill would open up healthy cooking for us!

    A lovely juicy fillet steak or a succulent salmon fillet with accompanying vegetables…..mouth is just watering thinking about it and just think how healthy i would be.

    Salmon. I eat a lot of it and usually cook it in the oven so would be nice to try it cooked differently

    I would cook courgette, peppers, aubergine and halloumi to have with some Greek yogurt, one of my favourite meals ☺

    I always have an issue with cooking steak just how others like it, This really would solve this problem for me. Personally i am a lover of fish so this would give me the chance to experiment a little more without the risk of ruining it

    I would cook steak so I can cook it to everyones individual tastes. My son likes it medium and husband well done. I always struggle to cook meat as I am a vegetarian and not a confident meat cooker, this could save me time and make me queen of the kitchen and not poison anyone!

    A great way to kick off my post-baby health kick! I’d grill chicken with parma ham and soft cheese/pesto filling, alongside home made mustardy beef burgers for the children.

    It would have to be grilled King Prawns with a lovely chilli, garlic and oregano sauce and fresh crusty bread. Delicious.

    I would use it to cook lots of things like sausages bacon, fish fingers waffles toasties, I used to use mine all the time until it broke its a much healthier way of cooking for my children and the taste is still just as nice xxxx

  539. Gill Thomas says

    It would probably be sausages as the kids would nag and nag me to try it out for the m first !!!, then steak with haloumi for us oldies. Hehehe !

    A cheese toastie, to see if it sticks. I have had a few grills in my time, and if cheese sticks.. then it wont last long

    It’s great to make sausages on this grill, you see all the fat dripping off leaving health(ier) sausages left behind. Why diet when you can cook healthier? I hope I win this!

    ooh – a mix of mushrooms, peppers, onions, aubergine and courgettes with garlic and balsamic vinegar – to eat hot with couscous or rice, and any left over for a wrap the following day 😀

    I would use it to cook whole mackerel stuffed with a lovely spicy sambal of chillies, dried prawns,garlic, shallots and balachan.

    It would have to be some nice grilled Mackerel – one of those foods that are tasty, but also good for you.
    ….Although, some nice crispy bacon would also be a good choice.

  679. Edward Guerreiro says

    I really enjoy a good steak, so that would have to be the first thing I tried.

    I would also really love to see how lamb shish kebabs came out. I have a feeling that, while they wouldn’t be as good as those cooked over charcoal, this device would cook them much better then they come out under the grill.

    Reply

  726. Tracey Kifford says

    I would use this for LOTS of different things – but I reckon it would make mean lamb skewers, with peppers and onion, marinaded in lemon and rosemary, and then served with flatbreads, chilli sauce and yoghurt – yum!

  755. Gemma says

    Hmm I would grill lots of different things like steaks, chicken, paninis, and sausage and bacon for that essential morning fry up every now and then! Love these grills would enjoy using it all the time.

    I would be grilling veggies to go with everything as well as quick dinners of chicken breasts or burgers of all kinds (lots of mince to use up)

    I’d start with toasted sandwiches or paninis to get to grips with it and once sure I couldn’t cock it up I’d work my way through everything it was capable of! I’d love one!

    Chicken marinated in paprika, cut into strips, skewered with peppers and red onion – slap it on the grill and it’ll be awesome!

    I’m trying to cook healthier family meals this year and I hate cooking burgers and sausages because of the fat! This would mean I can reduce our fatty intake of these meals!

    I’ve been without a kitchen for 9 months now getting by with a BBQ and slow cooker, so the first in a long list of snacks/dinners I miss is good old cheese on toast! I’ll start with the basics and build up!

    i think I would grill a lovely Tuna steak that I’d marinated in soy, rice wine, fish sauce, lime, chilli, spring onion and coriander.

    I think I would start to cook with this grill, by trying chicken. I’m trying to get all my family to rat healthy. But I’m sure a winner will be steak on a Saturday night. It looks stylish too so it won’t be put in a cupboard.

    There would be so much I could use this for, but first I think I would cook chicken breast marinaded in a peri peri sauce
