Deep-frying

Foods can only be deep-fried in the pressure cooker without the lid!
To prevent burns caused by foaming or spattering oil, make sure that the pot you use is high enough.
• Fill the cooker at most half full ("½" marking) with fat.
• Heat the fat at medium. Do not overheat it.
• The right temperature for deep-frying has been reached if bubbles immediately form around the handle of a
wooden spoon when it is dipped in the hot fat.
• Never cover the cooker!
