Preparing your Kenwood Fryer for Use
Check that your Fryer is disconnected from the electricity
supply. Wash the basket in hot sudsy water and wipe dry
thoroughly. Wipe the interior, exterior surfaces and lid with a
damp cloth plug a little washing up liquid. Dry thoroughly.
Your Kenwood Fryer is now ready for use.
THE FRYER MUST NOT BE
IMMERSED IN WATER
Note
Your fryer has a cord storage wrap on the rear. To prevent
unwanted cord trailing across the worktop, unwrap cord to
connect to the nearest power point, and for safety, anchor
the cord in the special cleat. When not in use all the cable
can be easily wrapped around storage cleat.
Using your Kenwood Fryer
1.
Open the lid - see diagrams.
2.
Remove the basket and pour in about 1 litre of oil into
the bowl. The level must be between the max and min
marks (Fig. 1). If a solid fat is to be used, place 1kg into
the bowl and allow to melt on the lowest setting.
3.
Put the basket back into the fryer and lower into the oil.
Close lid.
4.
Plug in at the mains and set thermostat to required
temperature (see cooking guide). The indicator light will
go out when the set temperature is reached.
5.
Open the lid - see diagrams. Lift the basket out of the oil
and locate in the draining slot at the front of the bowl
(Fig. 2).
6.
Place the food to be fried (which should be as dry as
possible) in the basket. Slowly immerse the basket in the
oil and close the lid (see diagrams).
7.
After the expected cooking time, open lid and lift the basket
out of the oil. Shake the basket over the oil if necessary.
8.
Turn out the contents of the basket onto absorbent
paper before serving to absorb excess grease and retain
crispness.
9.
At end of cooking session, turn the thermostat off,
unplug from mains and allow to cool.
Note:
During use, the basket may become tarnished. This
will not affect the quality of either the food or the oil and can
be removed by cleaning.
We would recommend the use of a good quality oil for deep
frying, such as Corn Oil or Groundnut Oil. A good quality solid
fat may also be used. Other oils may be used if they are
specifically recommended by the manufacturer for deep
frying. Never mix different oils or fats and do not use butter or
margarine.
