A mum has told of the terrifying moment her air fryer burst into flames while cooking her daughter some bacon.
Rebecca Sim said the incident could have resulted in her whole kitchen being burnt down after she noticed a strong burning plastic smell originating from the appliance.
The 52-year-old switched on the one-year-old Tower appliance to cook her daughter some bacon when the smell quickly escalated to an 'inferno' as she unplugged it and threw it outside.
