3. To fry without the frying basket:
Carefully lower or slide the food directly into the frying bowl. Always use utensils to do this.
Hot oil can cause scalding!
Never drop or tip food into the bowl.
Never put your hand or other body parts into the hot oil.
Always keep hands and face away from rising steam or spitting oil.
Use a slotted spoon or a slotted fish slice to remove the food from the oil. Drain on kitchen paper or
on a drip tray.
Before removing oil from your fryer always switch off, unplug and allow the oil to cool
completely.
1. You will need a slotted spoon, a suitable tray or large plate, kitchen paper, a funnel or jug with a
pouring lip, muslin (if reusing the oil), and the original oil bottle you saved earlier!
2. If you've thrown it away, any suitable sized bottle with a lid will do.
3. Using a slotted spoon, skim off any food scraps floating on the surface of the oil.
4. Remove the basket from the fryer (if used) and place on kitchen paper to drain.
5. Line the drip tray with kitchen paper.
6. Then, carefully, and with the appliance unplugged, remove the control unit as described on part
'To Disassemble before cleaning', and place the element on the drip tray.
7. Next, place the oil bottle in the sink, remove its cap and place the funnel in the top. If you wish to
reuse the oil, line the funnel with a piece of muslin to act as a filter.
8. With the rounded edge of the fryer facing away from you, grip the rim of the removable frying
bowl with both hands and carefully lift it out and clear of the body. Take it over to the sink and
pour the oil from the rounded end of the bowl slowly into the bottle through the funnel.
Alternatively, pour the oil into a jug with a pouring lip and use this to transfer the oil into the
bottle.
9. When all the oil has been poured into the bottle, remove the funnel (discard the muslin, if used),
and replace the bottle cap. The oil
cleanly.
10. You can now clean the fryer— see part "Caring for and cleaning your appliance"
Always dispose of the oil in an environmentally safe way. Never pour the oil into drains. Contact your
recycling centre for advice on the disposal of the oil
can now either be stored for reuse, or discarded safely and
