Table of cooking times

For best results and to prevent overflowing, use the traditional French method of frying hand made French fries:

-first frying at 170°C*

-let them rest until they are slightly cooled

-second frying at 190°C*.

The cooking times are a guide only. They may vary depending on the size of the food, the amount of food, individual preferences, and the voltage.
