Table
In the table below is indicated what types of food
can be prepared with the fryer and what
temperature and preparation times should be
chosen. The table also indicates the maximum
quantity per preparation. You may deviate a little
from these instructions, depending on the
quantities to be prepared and on your personal
taste.
If you find different instructions (for the same
quantities!) on the packaging of the food, follow
these.
French fries
To obtain the nicest and most crispy French fries:
• Use not too new potatoes.
• Cut the potatoes first to thick slices and then to
sticks. Rinse the sticks in a colander under the
cold water tap: this will prevent the sticks from
adhering to one another while frying. Dry the
sticks using e.g. kitchen paper.

• French fries should be prepared in two steps:
- firstly at 160 °C (320 °F), during 8-10
minutes.
- secondly at 190 °C (374 °F), during 2-4
minutes.
During the second step shake the frying basket
at small intervals; then the French fries will get
a fine overall browning.
Deep frozen food
Food from your deep freezer or from the freezer
compartment of your fridge (-16 to -18 °C or -1 to
3 °F) will cool down the oil/fat vastly when lowered
into it, so that too much oil/fat may be absorbed.
• For that reason, do not put too big portions into
the fryer.
• Let the fryer regain optimum frying temperature
before you prepare a portion of deep frozen
food (approx. 15 minutes).
Set the temperature knob to the frying temp-
erature indications on the packaging of the
deep frozen food. If these indications are not
given, set the knob to the highest temperature
(190 °C or 374 °F).
These instructions are also valid for certain
types of food which require careful preparation,
such as meat croquettes.
