Chip Frying
The recommended load for each batch is 2 ¼ kg (5 lbs.) for each basket. This will fill the basket about
2/3 rd full and it is important that this load should not be exceeded.
Fish Frying
Cook fish by free floating them. Seven or eight 100g pieces in the 300 Fryer or 12 - 14 pieces in the 600
Fryer may be cooked at one time. Slide the fish into the pan slowly to avoid splashing of the oil or fat
and to prevent the fish sinking and sticking to the base of the pan.
