USE

CAUTIONS FOR FRYING

Only oil or vegetable fat should be used for frying.

Amount of oil / fat min. 2 - max. 2.5 l.

Avoid mixing different types of oil / fat. It is important
to fry at the right temperature for good results.
· Temperature too low: the food to be fried cooks

too slowly and absorbs oil / fat.

· Temperature too high: the food forms a dark

crust too quickly and the inside is not cooked.

· Do not use the fryer cover when cooking.
Almost all foods can be fried, e.g. chicken, fish, meat,
vegetables, fruit, potatoes. Watery products are less
suitable.

Dry the food to be fried well before cooking, shake off
any excess flour, press down bread-crumbs well.
If you intend to fry large quantities at any one time, it
is wise to remove the basket after a few minutes, so
that the oil can return quickly to its initial temperature.
In this way food fried will be more crispy.
The oil must be changed when food no longer
becomes crispy (even when the temperature is
adjusted correctly) or when the oil turns slightly dark-
coloured.

HOW TO FRY

First of all set the desired temperature and wait until
the oil has reached this temperature.
Put the frying basket into the oil with the food to be
fried. When frying is done, lift the basket and shake it
lightly to drain off the excess oil.
Hook the basket on the hanging device to drain the
remaining oil.

IMPORTANT ADVICE

-

Before frying for the first time,

wash the fryer

kettle and basket with a sponge and soap and
water (or use a product available on the market).

- Dry and polish with a clean dry cloth.
- Never leave the fryer unattended while in

operation.

- As the surface of the fryer becomes hot during

operation, children must be kept at a safe
distance.

- Do not put plastic cutlery in the hot oil.
- Change dirty oil immediately as it is easily

inflammable.

Warning!
At no time should the oil come in contact with
water.
If in spite of all precautions taken the fryer
should accidentally catch fire:

· Switch off the fryer (or pull out the plug).
· Remove the basket.
· Cover it with the lid provided.

Never put out a fire with water!

- Do not place easily inflammable or deformable

objects directly under the fryer.

- Make sure that the power cables of electric

appliances do not come in contact with the hot
fryer.
