3. Insert the plug into a 230-240 volt power
outlet and turn the power on by using the
on/off switch.
Note: Do not connect the fryer to the
electricity supply if there is no oil or fat
in the tank.
4. Adjust the control dial to the desired
temperature that you wish to cook the
food. The red indicator light will
illuminate and the heating element will
begin heating the oil. When the oil has
reached the required temperature, the
light will go out. The fryer is now ready to
cook.
5. Place the food (which should be as dry as
possible) for deep frying, into the basket.
Note: The basket should always be filled
with food whilst resting on the bench top.
Remove the lid, lift the basket and put it
on the rest ➃so that it is not in contact
with the oil.
6. Replace the lid. With the lid on lift the
basket of the rest position and lower the
basket into the tank.
7. When the food is cooked (see time guide
chart on page 10), place the basket in its
raised position to drain. Turn the
temperature knob to the lowest setting.
8. Once the food is drained thoroughly, lift
the lid, remove the basket with food and
replace the lid
. Put the fried food on a
plate covered with absorbent paper or
kitchen towel.
9. When finished with fryer, switch the
power off and remove the plug from main
power.
10.Clean the fryer only after the oil is
completely cooled down.
Cooking home battered food
This method allows for the fact that if wet
batter is placed in the basket prior to
cooking the food may stick to the basket.
This method of cooking requires extreme
care.
1.Follow the instructions as given in the
general cooking method, steps 1-4.
2.Place the basket inside the tank
in the down position.
3.Coat the food in batter and allow it to
drain slightly to get rid of the excess
coating.
4.Very carefully, slowly lower the coated food
into the hot oil, using a suitable implement
or tongs. This allows the batter to become
solid and prevents it sealing to the mesh of
the basket.
Note: Remember to take care as the oil
may spit as the food is added.
5.You may choose to cook with the lid in
place or without it.
You can now follow the instructions as
given in the general cooking method, steps
7-10.
