OPERATION - T ips and directions
•
Make sure that the food is thoroughly dry before you fry it. Moist products can cause severe splashing
of the hot oil or liquid fat.
•
Remove as much ice as possible from frozen food; this will prevent splashing.
•
Do not fry oven-ready chips.
•
Do not fry potatoes that have been stored for too long, or are beginning to develop shoots.
•
Do not put too much food in the frying basket at one time.
•
You will need to coat some foods with batter or breadcrumbs before you fry them. You can prepare
your own breadcrumbs by crumbling toast or rusks.
•
Filter the oil or liquid fat at regular intervals to remove any breadcrumbs and particles of food.
•
Take extreme care when filling and emptying the deep fryer, and when opening and closing the lid.
The inside of the lid and the bowl are both very hot; the hot vapours and splashes of liquid fat or oil
can also cause burns.
