COOKING TIMES
The cooking times are given as a rough guide and may vary depending on the seasonality of
the food, its size, the quantities used and individual tastes, as well as the voltage. The amount
of oil indicated may be increased depending on your taste and needs. If you want crisper chips,
you can add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

* Freshly harvested potatoes may require a longer cooking time to obtain a crisper more golden
brown result.
** For best results we recommend using frozen chips without any wheat flour batter coating
as they tend to give less crisp results and the batter may fall off during cooking (check the
ingredient list on the packet for details).
Meat- poultry
To add a little flavour to your meat, don’t hesitate to mix spices in with the oil (paprika, curry,
mixed herbs, thyme, bay leaf, etc).
