By cooking the “TURBO” way, all you need is an electric outlet. Made of a filter, a built-in exhaust fan and a heating element, the Aroma Turbo Oven cooks food by turbinate hot air which revolves around the meat or products it cooks. With space provided around all sides and under the rack, food cooks uniformly and does not sit in its own grease.
