Oil and fat
Never mix different types of oil or fat and never add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.
We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat. Preferably use vegetable oil or fat that is rich in
unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid), such as soy oil, peanut oil, maize oil or sunflower oil.
Because oil and fat lose their favourable properties rather quickly, you have to change the oil or fat
regularly (after 10-12 times).
Always change the oil or fat if it starts foaming when it is heated, if it has a strong smell or taste or if
it turns dark and/or syrupy.
cool zone
During frying, loose food particles collect on the bottom of the inner bowl. As the heating element
has been placed some distance above the bottom of the inner bowl and primarily heats the oil or
fat above it, the oil or fat between the bottom of the inner bowl and the heating element remains
relatively cool (cool zone). This prevents the food particles that end up in this zone from burning,
increasing the number of times you can re-use the oil or fat.
solid fat
You can also use solid frying fat. In that case, extra precautions are necessary to prevent the fat from
spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.
1 If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
 Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
 Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in it at room temperature.
 If the fat gets very cold, it may start spattering when it melts. Punch some holes in the
resolidified fat with a fork to prevent this (Fig. 7).
Be careful not to damage the inner bowl with the fork.
