Cooking Guide - TEFAL EASY FRY & GRILL EY501 Manual

Note: If you want, you can also let the appliance preheat without any food inside. In
this case, turn the timer knob to more than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up
light goes out (after approx. 3 minutes). Then fill the bowl and turn the timer knob to
the required cooking time (see Cooking Guide for timings).
• The timer starts counting down the set cooking time.
• The heating-up light goes on.
• During the hot air frying process, the heating-up light goes on and off from time to time.
This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to thermostatically maintain
the set temperature.
• Excess oil from the food is collected in the bottom of the bowl.
8. Some foods require shaking halfway through the cooking time (see section 'Cooking
Guide'). To shake the food, pull the bowl out of the appliance by the handle and shake it.
Then slide the bowl back into the appliance.
Tip: You can set the timer to half of the cooking time, and when the timer sounds shake the
ingredients. Then set the timer again for the remaining cooking time.
9. When you hear the timer sound, the cooking time set has finished. Pull the bowl out of the
appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn the timer control
knob to 0.
10. Check if the food is ready.
If the food is not ready yet, simply slide the bowl back into the appliance and set the timer
for a few extra minutes.
11. When the food is cooked, take out the bowl. To remove food, use a pair of tongs to lift the
food out of the bowl.
Caution: When you turn the bowl, be careful of any excess oil collected at the bottom of the
bowl that may leak onto the food and of the grid may fall down.
After hot air frying, the bowl, the grid and the food are very hot. Depending on the type of
food cooked in the appliance, be careful as steam may escape from the bowl.

of food.
