Safety
requirements for
deep fat frying
IMPORTANT – As with any cooking appliance there could be some fire
risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying,
cooking utensils containing oil must not be left unattended (e.g. to
answer the telephone) on or in close proximity to the patterned
cooking areas.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate
heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full with fat or oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking
period.
4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food.
This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much,
resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into
the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause frothing
and spitting, if added too quickly.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or
fat.
8. Never allow excessive splashing of oil onto the hob.
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.
NEVER attempt to move the pan - burns and injuries are caused
almost invariably by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside
with it.
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
NEVER use a fire extinguisher to put out a pan fire, as the force of
the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over.
NEVER use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.
When smothering the flames DO ENSURE that you FACE and ARMS
are WELL PROTECTED from the flames to save you from becoming
hurt.
3. After the fire has been extinguished LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR
AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT.
4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade immediately.
