NOTE:
We recommend that you
use high quality cooking oil such as
peanut oil when deep frying.
Peanut oil can withstand many
frying cycles as well as high frying
temperature when cooking large
quantities of food
.
Step 1
Fill pan with liquid until half full.
WARNING:
Never fill the pan more than half way to allow room
for addition of food and to avoid hot liquid from
boiling over and causing severe burns. Do not place
an empty pan on heat source.
WARNING:
It will take approximately 5-10 minutes to preheat
your oil. Never leave oil unattended during preheating
or cooking process as it can ignite and hot oil is
extremely hazardous and should be monitored at all
times.
Step 2
Place pan with liquid on cooker or stove. Bring liquid to the
desired cooking temperature (325°-350°F for frying). For best
results, use a deep fry thermometer to check the temperature
of the liquid in pan. If oil begins to smoke, reduce heat to
avoid igniting the oil. Do not allow oil to exceed 400°F as it
can ignite.
Step 3
Use the strainer basket to
SLOWLY
lower food into pan to
avoid splashing hot liquid.
WARNING:
Frozen food should always be thawed completely
before placing in oil. Pat food dry before placing in
hot oil.
Step 4
Allow food to cook. When food is done, turn heat source off
and carefully remove food. Test food for doneness. Use
caution as food will be very hot.
WARNING:
Use extreme care when lifting basket out of pan or
off hang tab. Always steady the pan by gripping the
pan handle with one hand while
SLOWLY
lifting
basket up with the other to ensure pan and basket
are not stuck together. Failure to do so could create a
situation where you pull the pan off the burner spilling
the hot contents onto yourself or someone else.
Step 5
Always allow cooker, pan and liquid to cool completely before
handling.

WARNING:
Always remove the

SLOWLY
from pan
to allow hot liquid to drain. Lifting
strainer basket out of pan too
quickly will cause hot liquid to spray
out of basket and could result in
severe burns for anyone near the
pan.
