– Use waxy potatoes. Young potatoes contain more water and therefore take longer
to cook and it is possible that they may not go as crispy.
– Wash the chopped-up potatoes with cold, clear water to remove any excess starch
in the potatoes.
IMPORTANT
: Then thoroughly dry the potatoes. The less moisture
is present, the crispier the chips will become.
– The thinner the potatoes are chopped up, the crispier they will become.
– If necessary, spray the uncooked potatoes with a little oil from the oil atomiser as
this will make them go crispier.
– Preboiled potatoes will cook more evenly! Cut the potatoes into small sticks and
preboil them for around
fi
ve minutes. This will prevent your chips from being crispy
on the outside but not fully cooked on the inside.
• With some food (e.g. chips, potato wedges etc.) it is advisable to mix the food around
from time to time to obtain an even cooking result. To do this, remove the drawer
from the device and shake the food about slightly to mix it all up. Then reinsert the
drawer and continue the cooking process.
