Frying
(All models)
The frypan is ideal for shallow or dry frying.
Deep frying is not particularly suitable as
the frypan has shallow sides and a greater
surfacearea,whichresultsinheatlossand
the possible overflow of oil.
Pan frying:Suitableforeggs,omelettes,
bacon,sausages,steaksandchickenpieces.
Preheat to settings 5-6 with a little oil to add
flavour. Non-stick cooking surfaces do not
require a large amount of oil. Steaks should
only be turned once during cooking.
Shallow frying: Suitable for vegetable pieces
e.groastpumpkinandpotato,andcrumbed
food. Preheat on settings 6-8 with sufficient
oil so that the food is half immersed. Cook
food with the lid off.
Sautéeing: Preheat on settings 5-6 with a
little oil to add flavour.
Stir frying:Foodiscookedquickly,overahigh
heat and vegetables retain their flavour and
crispness.Forbestresultsandevencooking,
cutfoodintoevensized,smallerpieces.
1. Preheat the frypan on settings 8-9 with a
little oil.
2. Slice meat into strips. Coat meat in a little
oil and stir-fry in batches until browned.
This prevents meat from stewing.
3.Addvegetablesandseasoning,stirring
continuously. Vegetables which take longer
tocook,suchascarrots,shouldbecooked
first,addingtheotheringredientslater.
Cook until the vegetables are crisp.
Return the meat back into the pan when
the vegetables are almost cooked. The lid
can be in position in the last few minutes
of cooking.
