TABLE OF COOKING TIMES
The cooking times are a guide only. They may vary depending on the size of the food, individual pre-
ferences and the voltage.
For crispier homemade chips, fry in two stages (see cooking table below for recommended times.)
Fry during the first stage at 320°F/160°C, then raise the basket, increase the temperature to
374°F/190°C, wait for the temperature indicator light to turn green, then lower the basket again.
When frying battered food or doughnuts, fry without the basket in place to avoid sticking.
Tips
- When frying battered foods, take great care when handling the food. Heat-safe tongs or slotted
spoons are recommended.
- Avoid dropping foods into the hot oil. Gradually lower food to avoid splashing of hot oil.
