FROZEN FOOD

• 

Frozen food cools oil quickly, so fry a single layer at a time.

• 

Shake off excess ice or water before adding the food to the oil.

• 

Keep the pieces apart, or they’ll stick together.

• 

Use the highest temperature setting, and lower the basket slowly into the oil to reduce 
foaming.

• 

When cooking pre-packed foods, follow any guidelines on the package or label.

Fish – frozen

You may fry pre-coated fish – follow the directions on the package.
