COOKING GUIDE

HANDy HINTS

Food should be crisp when deep fried. If 

results are soggy, it’s because the oil isn’t 

hot enough. This can be attributed to one or 

more of the following:

• 

Not enough preheating time.

• 

Temperature chosen is too low.

• 

Too much food in the basket (do not fill 

basket more than two thirds full).

• 

Do not use solid frying oil, only use 

liquid oils.

• 

Use a good quality liquid oil. For best 

results we recommend oils listed.

• 

We do not recommend fats that 

deteriorate quickly such as lard or 

dripping.

• 

Oil can be re-used several times before 

it starts to break down (smoke-point 

decreases ie. The oil will burn at a lower 

temperature, fried food will be less 

crisp). Filter cooled oil through a fine 

sieve then store in an airtight container 

in a dark place. As oil will absorb 

food flavours, it’s a good idea to label 

container with type of food the oil was 

used for. For example you wouldn’t deep 

fry a dessert in oil previously used for 

cooking fish. A fine sieve can be a new 

chux cloth, paper coffee filter or clean 

cotton material.
