Using your VersaCook in the Deep Fryer mode - continued

General cooking method

(For pre-cooked, crumbed, floured or wrapped food.)

1.Ensure the oil has reached the required temperature. Remove the lid, lift the basket and put it on the rest (3) so that it is not in contact with the oil.

2.Basket rest for raised position

Place the food, (should be as dry as possible) into the raised basket.

Note: The basket should always be in the raised position when it is to be filled with food.

3.Lower the basket into the pan.

4.Do not cook food with the lid on.

5.Once the food is cooked (see Deep Fryer Frying Times and Temperatures guide chart on page 8), place the basket on its raised position to drain for a few seconds.

6.Remove the basket and put the fried food on a plate covered with absorbent paper or kitchen towel.

7.When finished with the deep fryer, remove the plug from mains power.

8.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.Ensure the oil has reached the required temperature.

Note: Leave the basket in the down position.

2.Remove the lid of the fryer.

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.

You can now follow the instructions as given in the general cooking method, steps 4 - 8.
