Solid fat

You can also use solid frying fat. In that case, extra precautions are necessary to prevent the fat from

spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.

1 If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.

2 Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.

3 Store the fryer with the resolidied fat still in it at room temperature.

4 If the fat gets very cold, it may start spattering when it melts. Punch some holes in the

resolidied fat with a fork to prevent this (Fig. 8).

Be careful not to damage the inner bowl with the fork.

, The power-on light in the on/off switch goes on.

3 Set the temperature control to the required temperature (Fig. 11).

For the required temperature, see the package of the food to be fried or the food table at the end

of this booklet.

, The temperature light is on.

Note: You can leave the basket in the fryer while the fryer heats up.

4 Wait until the temperature light goes on (this takes 10 to 15 minutes).

5 With the lid still on the fryer, lift the basket and place it on the bracket.

6 Take the lid off the fryer (Fig. 12).

7 Remove the basket from the bracket and put the food to be fried in the basket.

9 Put the lid on the fryer.

10 Lift the basket off the bracket and lower it into the oil or fat.

During frying, the temperature light comes on and goes out from time to time. This indicates that

the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the correct temperature.
