Product Information

The displays of some also included useful frying times for different foods. Ease of emptying used oil Whether you choose a deep-fat fryer or an air fryer is likely to come down to what's most important to you – getting the authentic deep-fried crispy coating on your food, or enjoying fried treats with less fat. We tested how long the deep-fat fryers took to get to 170°C as this is a normal temperature used for cooking from frozen. Built-in filter prevents cooking smells being released from food as you fry, keeping your kitchen odour-free Cons: Expensive compared with deep-fat fryers, results are more comparable to oven-cooked chips than fried chips.

Oil is never easy to shift. Some deep-fat fryers make it easier by incorporating removable dishwasher-safe baskets, lids or oil tanks that you can wash by hand in warm, soapy water.Often quite basic-looking machines with a large basin for the oil and a wire basket to hold the food. The oil is heated up and food is cooked by being submerged in the hot oil. The fryer keeps the oil at the correct temperature until the food is cooked.

Air fryers use a small amount of oil, and hot air, to cook food. They first appeared around 10 years ago, with the launch of the Tefal Actifry, and are a popular alternative to deep-fat fryers.

Your deep-fat fryer's instruction manual will recommend which oils are suitable for your specific fryer, but these usually include vegetable, sunflower, sesame, groundnut, corn, soy, hazelnut and rapeseed oil. Lifting system with folding handle lets you lift the frying basket out of the oil without opening the lid for safer handling Thanks to its non-slip feet this deep fat fryer stays still and secure on your countertop for a safe cooking environment The easiest-to-use deep-fat fryers had clearly labelled controls, which were well-placed and moved smoothly.
