DEEP FRY Kettle Only
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury: 1) Position multi-cooker well back from edge of counter or table. Do
not let cord hang or drape over edge of counter or table within reach of children. 2) Do not add water or wet
foods to cooking oil. Even small amounts of water will cause oil to spatter.
Remove the cover for all deep frying. Never use any cover while oil is heating or while deep frying foods in
this unit.
Use only a good reliable standard brand of vegetable oil or all-purpose shortening for deep frying. Deep
frying foods in butter, margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is not recommended because of lower smoking
temperatures.
Use 8 cups of oil or shortening. This allows for oil displacement and promotes even frying.
Remove excess moisture from moist foods by blotting with paper toweling before deep frying. Moist foods
cause excessive foaming and spattering. Set heat control at 400
° and preheat oil for 20 minutes. Place food in
steam/fry basket. Lower into heated oil. Fry until food is well browned. Lift steam/fry basket and using drain
hook, hook basket onto multi-cooker rim to drain.
Do not overload basket. Too many items lower the oil temperature causing food to absorb oil and/or cook
improperly. Fry similar sized items for even browning and doneness.
Place uniform size pieces in a single layer on the bottom of the steam/fry basket. Smaller amounts cook
faster.
Oil can be reused several times but must be strained after each use. Cool the oil completely then strain it
through a sieve, wire strainer, double layers of cheesecloth, or a filter-lined funnel. Place the strained oil in a
container labeled with date and type of food cooked. Store oil in cool, dark place.
Use caution when deep frying flour tortillas. Flour tortillas contain air bubbles. During deep frying, oil can
become trapped within these bubbles. If not properly drained the bubbles can burst and cause burns. Therefore,
after deep frying tortillas, carefully raise them out of the cooking oil, but not out of the multi-cooker and allow
oil to drain from the tortilla for approximately 30 seconds.
