2. Preparing the food

• Whatever the recipe used, the food must be perfectly dry: this will avoid overflowing and make the oil or fat last longer.
• When preparing potato-based food (chips, crisps, etc.), cut them up and then wash them in cold water to remove the starch. Dry them carefully. This will stop them sticking together.

3. Cooking

• Do not overfill the basket. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and make the food greasy.
• Do not keep the oil at high temperature for long periods. This will make it lose its properties.
• Set the temperature controller to the lowest temperature while waiting between two batches.
• Do not leave the cooked food in the basket in the draining position too long. The vapors could cause the food to lose its crispness and go soft.
• Frozenfood can be cooked in the basket without being defrosted.

4. After cooking

• Oil or fat can be left in the fryewith its basket and lid on. It will not lose its properties.
