Practical Advice - Hyundai DF 256S Instruction Manual

USE YOUR DEEP FRYER
NOTE: Never turn on the fryer with an empty OIL RESERVOIR. Always use your fryer on a flat,
heat resistant surface. Plug the cord into the outlet.
INTRODUCING THE OIL OR FAT
1) Open the top lid.
2) Lift the basket using the handle.
3) Place approximately 2,5 liters of oil or 1,2 kg of hard fat into the fryer body (the level must
always be between the two marks on the oil container wall).
4) If you use blocks of fat, cut them into pieces before placing them in the body.
5) Set switch of the temperature controller to 140 °C (the red Indicator light comes on). To melt
the fat needs roughly 8 minutes.
6) Never attempt to melt fat in the basket.
COOKING
1) Plug in the fryer.
2) Set the temperature controller to the desired temperature depending on what you are going to
cook, the indicator "POWER" comes on.
3) When the indicator "POWER" goes out (after approx. 5-7 minutes) the fryer has reached the
corresponding temperature. Open the top lid.
4) Attach the handle into basket.
5) Put the food in the basket.
6) Lower the basket into the oil slowly; watching the oil level and foam in order to keep them from
reaching the fringe of the oil container confirming the oil level is appropriate. Detach the hand-
le. Close the lid.
7) When the food is cooked, turn anticlockwise the temperature controller to the position "OFF";
the indicator "POWER" goes out. Unplug the fryer or shut the power socket. Open the lid. At-
tach the handle to basket's support (at the top of the basket's body), raise the basket and drain
the oil.
8) When cooking, the temperature controller will heat or stop heating according to the set tempe-
rature; the "POWER" indicator light will flicker.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

1. Oils and fats
• Always use oil and fats which can withstand high temperature.
• Do not mix different types of oil or fat.
• Change the oil or fat when it becomes brown after cooking.
2. Preparing the food
• Whatever the recipe used, the food must be perfectly dry: this will avoid overflowing and make
the oil or fat last longer.
• When preparing potato-based food (chips, crisps, etc.), cut them up and then wash them in cold
water to remove the starch. Dry them carefully. This will stop them sticking together.
3. Cooking
• Do not overfill the basket. This will cause the oil temperature dropping and make the food grea-
sy.
• Do not keep the oil at high temperature for long periods. This will make it lose its properties.
• Set the temperature controller to the lowest temperature while waiting between two batches.
