uses.
Never use lard or dripping as this may
cause overflowing, smoking or risk of
fire.
Important: Before each use, make holes
in the solid fat with a non-metallic
spatula in the bottom of the bowl, in
order to allow any water trapped under
the fat to escape in the form of steam.
Set the temperature selector to position
150°C to melt the fat.
PREPARING FOODS FOR FRYING
No matter what the recipe, food must be
perfectly dry : this will prevent
overflowing and extend the life of the oil.
When dishes include raw potatoes
(chips, crisps and potato straws), wash
them in cold water to get rid of the
starch. This will stop them from sticking
together. Dry them carefully and
thoroughly with paper kitchen towel.
When preparing frozen foods, before
cooking, remove any ice crystals on the
food by placing the frozen food in the
basket and gently shaking the basket
over the sink.
COOKING
Do not overfill the basket, or you will
cause the temperature of the hot oil to
drop too much, and this will make the
food greasy and soggy.
The capacity of your fryer is limited to:
- 1 kg of fresh chips
- 750 g of frozen chips
For best results, we advise that you use:
- 600 g of fresh chips
- 375 g of frozen chips
Do not leave your fryer heating
unnecessarily: your oil will last longer
this way.
Do not leave your cooked food in the
basket in the draining position for too
long, as the steam may soften them and
make them soggy.
Cleaning
Unplug your appliance and allow it to
cool down before handling it.
Clean the exterior of the fryer with a
damp cloth. Do not use an abrasive pad
or any abrasive or alcohol based
cleaning products.
Never immerse the appliance in water
and never wash it under running water.
Remove the lid. Wash the lid with hot
water with washing up liquid, rinse and
dry.
Never wash the lid in the dishwasher.
Wash the basket in the dishwasher or in
hot water with washing up liquid, rinse
and dry.
When you change the oil, take the
opportunity to clean your removable
bowl in the dishwasher or in hot water
with washing up liquid. Rinse and dry.
Never use a scouring pad, any metallic
object or scouring powder. You will risk
damaging the non-stick coating of the
bowl. Damage to the bowl by not
following these guidelines is not
covered in the guarantee.
Scratches inside the removable bowl or
brown marks on the exterior may
appear naturally if you use the
appliance frequently.
