b) Cooking Guide
The table below provides guidelines for cooking food that is normally fried. All the food is fried
with the oil at MAX level.
The maximum capacity of the basket is 1,5 kg but for excellent results we recommend that you
do not exceed the weight recommended in the table below.

It is important to take into account which food you want to fry in order to determine the
appropriate temperature. Use the guideline information in the table below, the advice of the
manufacturer and your own decision to guide you.
Do not overload the basket. This will reduce the oil temperature and your food will be greasier
and less crunchy.
