Frying non-frozen food
Never overfill the basket, as this may cause a sudden drop in the
temperature of the oil and thus greasier and less uniform frying.
Check that the food is sliced into thin, even pieces. If the slices are
too thick, the food will not be well cooked inside, despite its
appearance, while even slices will be perfectly cooked at the same
time. Carefully dry the food before immersing it in the oil or fat, to
avoid oil being sprayed; furthermore, wet food will be less crisp
after cooking (especially potatoes).
Foods with a high water content (fish, meat, vegetables) should be
crumbed before frying, making sure the excess flour or bread-
crumbs are removed before immersing the food in the oil.
When cooking food in batter, you should first immerse the basket
empty.Then, when the set temperature has been reached, immerse
the food directly in the hot oil to avoid the batter sticking to the
basket.
When referring to the following table, please keep in mind that the
cooking times and temperatures are approximate, and must be
adjusted according to the quantity of food and personal tastes.
