Making home-made fries
Cleaning
10 Empty the contents into a bowl or onto a plate.
Caution
-
After the cooking process, the pan, the interior housing and the
ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the
Airfryer, steam may escape from the pan.
Note
-
To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift out the
ingredients.
-
Excess oil or rendered fat from the ingredients is collected on the bottom
of the pan.
-
Depending on the type of ingredients cooking, you may want to carefully
pour off any excess oil or rendered fat from the pan after each batch or
before shaking. Place the pan on a heat-resistant surface. Wear oven-safe
gloves to pour off excess oil or rendered fat. Return the pan into the
appliance.
-
When a batch of ingredients is ready, the Airfryer is instantly ready for
preparing another batch.
To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:
-
Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh, (slightly) floury
potatoes.
-
It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 500 g / 18 oz for an even result.
Larger quantities of fries tend to be less crispy than smaller portions.
1 Peel the potatoes and cut into fries (10x10 mm / 0.4x0.4 in thick).
2 Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.
3 Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper towel.
4 Pour one tablespoon of cooking oil into the bowl, put the sticks in the bowl
and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
5 Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a slotted kitchen utensil
so excess oil remains in the bowl.
Note
-
Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks in the pan at once to prevent
excess oil from going into the pan.
6 Put the sticks into the pan.
7 Fry the potato sticks and stir them 2-3 times during cooking.
Warning
-
Let the pan and the inside of the appliance cool down completely before
you start cleaning.
-
The pan has a non-stick coating. Do not use metal kitchen utensils or
abrasive cleaning materials as this may damage the non-stick coating.
Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil and fat from the bottom of the
pan after every use.
