First use
Before cooking food in your deep fryer you should Follow the
cleaning instructions in the CARE AND CLEANING section to
clean the component parts and remove any manufacturing
residue.
NOTE: Never immerse the deep fryer in water for cleaning.
NOTE: When first used there may be a little smoke and a hot
smell from the deep fryer. This is normal and will subside with
further use.
Which food items can be cooked?
Many food items are suitable for deep-frying including meat,
fish, prawns, vegetables and fruit.
Preparing meat items
•
Meat items may include poultry cuts, meatballs,
sausages, crispy bacon etc. For best results, use boneless
meat or poultry, meat with bones may not cook
thoroughly close to the bone.
•
Meat may be cooked with no coating, battered, or rolled
in a seasoned coating.
Preparing fish
•
Clean, bone and fillet the fish as necessary.
•
The fish may be battered or coated with seasoned flour
before cooking.
Preparing vegetables
•
Wash, peel and slice the vegetables as required.
Experiment a little to find the best cuts for different
vegetables. Cutters are available that will easily cut
potatoes etc into chips.
•
Cut strips of vegetables may be battered if preferred.

whole bananas and slices of pineapple or apple make
great deep-fried fritters.
