Place the food, which should be
as dry as possible, into the
raised basket. When frying
frozen food, avoid adding ice
particles to the hot oil. Remove
the basket from the fryer, add
the frozen food and shake the
basket to remove excess ice and
frost. The oil temperature and oil
life expectancy will be improved.

Lower the basket onto the
basket rest ‚.

the lid, lift the basket out of the
oil, give it a shake, and place it
in it's raised rest position for one
minute to drain.

battered foods
basket in lowered position)
This method allows for the fact
that if wet batter is placed in the
basket prior to cooking, the food
may stick.
1
Leave the basket in the down
position.
2
Coat the raw food in the batter
and allow it to drain slightly to
get rid of the excess coating.
3
Very carefully, slowly lower the
coated food into the hot oil,
using a suitable implement or
tongs. This allows the batter to
become solid and prevents it
sealing to the mesh of the
basket.
