The Cookworks Health Fryer, Model No. DF7003T-CB, is a versatile kitchen appliance designed for household and indoor use, offering a healthier alternative to traditional frying methods. This health fryer allows users to enjoy fried foods with a lower fat content, and can also be used for baking and roasting various snacks that would typically be prepared in an electric fan oven. Its design emphasizes ease of use, safety, and convenient maintenance, making it a practical addition to any kitchen.
The primary function of the Cookworks Health Fryer is to cook food using hot air circulation, which mimics the results of deep frying but with significantly less oil. This process, often referred to as "air frying," allows for the preparation of crispy and flavorful dishes, from homemade fries and potato wedges to fish, chicken, meat, and even baked goods like cup cakes. The appliance features a heating element and a fan that circulates hot air around the food placed in the frying basket, ensuring even cooking and browning.
The fryer operates with a digital display and touch panel controls, allowing users to set precise cooking temperatures and times. It includes a temperature icon, time icon, heating indicator, fan indicator, power indicator, and adjustment pads for increasing or decreasing settings. A mode pad allows switching between temperature and time settings, while a start/pause pad controls the cooking process. The appliance is equipped with a removable frying basket and bowl, which are essential for holding food during cooking and facilitating easy removal and cleaning.
Before first use, it is crucial to familiarize oneself with the fryer's components and assembly. The protective cardboard underneath the bowl and between the bowl and basket must be removed, and all parts should be cleaned as per the cleaning instructions.
To operate, the fully assembled fryer should be placed on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials and surfaces susceptible to steam damage. Adequate ventilation (minimum 10cm clearance around the appliance) is necessary. The power cable should be fully unwound and plugged into an earthed 220V-240V AC, 50Hz supply.
Preheating the fryer for 5 minutes is recommended before use. After pressing the POWER pad to activate the display, the MODE pad is used to select temperature or time settings. The adjustment (+/-) pads allow users to set the desired cooking temperature (e.g., 180°C for cake, 200°C for fries) and time (e.g., 5 minutes for preheating). Once settings are chosen, the START/PAUSE pad initiates the cooking process, illuminating the heating and fan indicators.
Food should be placed into the frying basket, taking care not to overfill it. It is recommended not to fill beyond 2/3 full for most foods, with a maximum of 500g of chips. Leaving sufficient space between items allows hot air to circulate effectively. The frying bowl and basket assembly is then refitted into the fryer.
During cooking, the heating indicator will illuminate when the fryer is heating and extinguish when the required temperature is reached, relighting as needed to maintain temperature. For many foods, it is advisable to remove the bowl halfway through the cooking time to shake or turn the food, ensuring even cooking. The fryer automatically switches off when the bowl is removed and resumes operation when it is refitted.
Once the set cooking time is complete, five bleeps will sound, and the fryer will switch off. Users should check if the food is cooked; if not, the bowl and basket can be refitted, and additional cooking time can be set. After cooking, the basket is removed from the bowl, and the contents are emptied onto a plate or serving bowl.
General cooking advice includes:
Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and safe operation of the Cookworks Health Fryer. Cleaning should be performed after each use, once the appliance has cooled completely (at least 3 hours).
The appliance is designed for easy disassembly of the frying bowl and basket. The basket release button, protected by a plastic cover, allows for separation of the basket from the bowl. To refit, align the handle with the slot in the bowl until a click is heard, indicating it is securely engaged.
