RECIPES
Follow basic user instructions when making these recipes in deep fryer.
Raw Fries
3-4 medium potatoes, peeled, if desired
1. Cut each potato into 3/8-inch strips. Place in large bowl, cover with cold water. Allow to
soak 15 minutes, or until ready to fry, to remove surface starch.
2. Rinse; drain and dry thoroughly with paper toweling before adding to basket.
3. To cook, choose either the double fry or single fry method from below.
Double Fry
1. Fill fryer with oil to MAX level. Preheat covered fryer with basket lowered, until
temperature light goes out.
2. Lift basket to drain position; add raw fries. Do not add more than 1 pound of raw fries to
basket to prevent boil-over when basket is lowered.
3. Slowly lower basket. Secure cover onto fryer and cook 2 to 3 minutes until fries are
cooked through, but not browned.
4. Lift basket to drain position; allow oil to heat until temperature light goes out.
5. Slowly lower basket. Secure cover onto fryer and cook 6 to 8 minutes or until fries are
brown and crisp.
6. When fries are done, lift basket to drain position to allow excess oil to drain off. Empty
fries onto paper toweling to finish draining before serving. Season as desired. Makes 4
servings.
Single Fry
1. Fill fryer with oil to MAX level. Preheat covered fryer with basket lowered, until
