Frying Guide - HOMCOM 800-172V70 Instruction Manual

● When placing the food into the basket, make sure it is as dry as possible. Do not add
water, ice or wet food – this may cause HOT OIL TO SPLATTER.
● When frying Frozen food, clear off any ice particles and thaw food thoroughly.
● Do not overfill the basket.
● Lower the basket of food into hot oil and cover the fryer with the lid.
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE CONTROL KNOB DURING THE FRYING PROCESS.
HOT STEAM MAY BE RELEASED AND CAUSE INJURY.
● When food has finished drying, remove the lid. Lift the basket slowly out of the hot oil
and place the basket on the drain support located on the back of the frying basket.
● After the excess oil has drained, place the food on a paper towel-lined baking sheet to
allow any remaining oil to drain away.
● If you are frying more than one load, ensure the oil reheats to the required temperature.
This chart is for reference only. Time and temperature should be adjusted accordingly to

touch the basket while it is still hot. Always use the handle.
4. After the excess oil has drained, place the food on a paper towel-lined baking sheet to
