Care and cleaning Cleaning should only be carried out when the fryer is switched off and the plug removed from the socket. Your fryer should have completely cooled. You can either put the lid into the dishwasher or into hot soapy water and let it soak there for 5-10 minutes.
The perfect chip • For perfect fries and wedges, old potatoes are ideal. The potato should be of a low starch, waxy variety i.e. chats, new potato or desiree potatoes. • Make sure that the chips are cut to even size to guarantee even cooking.
Recipes For perfect batter 1.Always shift all dry ingredients, then add liquids. Mix until smooth. 2.Keep your batter as cold as possible (it will be crisper) 3.Coat food in seasoned flour before batter, the batter will stick to the food better. 4.Fry until golden brown.
