The maximum amount of oil for this fryer is 4½ quarts and the minimum amount is 3¼ quarts. ♦ Use vegetable oil for deep frying, such as corn, sunflower, peanut or soybean.

Page 5: Frying Timetable
Helpful Hints for Deep Frying ● When using the fryer for the first time, a slight odor or light smoking may occur as manufacturing residue evaporates. This is normal during initial use. ● Before deep frying, always remove excess moisture or ice crystals from food by patting it dry with toweling. Moist foods may cause excess foaming, spattering, and/or overflow. ● Fry foods of equal size and thickness as they will fry more evenly and at the same speed. ● Do not fill the basket more than ⅔ full for most foods. For raw fries, do not fill basket more than ½ full. If too much food is fried at the same time, the food will not get crisp. ● At any time during the preheat cycle or when cooking, the temperature setting can be adjusted by simply pressing the Temp Set button to the desired temperature. ● For crisper foods, fry without the cover. ● For breading foods, use commercial breading, finely ground bread or cracker crumbs, corn meal, a mixture of corn meal and flour, pancake mix, or prepared bread mixes. - Page 6 Recipes Raw French Fries (Double Fry Method) Cut medium potatoes, peeled if desired, into ¼ to ½ inch thick strips. Place into large bowl and cover with hot, tap water. Soak potato strips for 15 minutes or until ready to fry. Rinse, drain, and pat dry with paper towels. Because raw fries contain a high percentage of moisture, extreme care must be used when deep frying.
