Fries - Twice Fried

When FRIES - TWICE FRIED mode is selected and confirmed by pressing the SCROLL/SELECT knob,

1ST FRY/2ND FRY displays.

1.Select 1ST FRY by highlighting and pressing SCROLL/SELECT knob to confirm. 1ST FRY flashes to indicate it

is the selected option. Once the selection has been confirmed, the unselected option display turns off. After FRIES - TWICE FRIED and 1ST FRY have been selected, the fryer will automatically set the time and temperature.

NOTE

For FRIES - TWICE FRIED, FRESH is the only available option as frozen fries have been precooked.

2.Start the heating process by pushing the START/CANCEL button. The display will turn orange to indicate heating. FRIES - TWICE FRIED, FRESH, 1ST FRY, HEATING and the actual temperature of the oil will be displayed.

The deep fryer will now preheat the oil. Once the deep fryer has reached the correct temperature, the deep fryer will beep once to indicate it is ready to cook. PRESS TIMER will display.

3.Lower the basket of fresh fries into the oil and press the TIMER button. When the TIMER button is pressed, the timer will start to count down, and the cooking process begins.

NOTE

When cooking fries using the Twice Fried method, it is not recommended to cook with the

lid on due to the possible build up of excess condensation.

NOTE

The fryer is programmed to heat to the correct overshoot temperature because when the cooler fries are lowered into the oil, the temperature of the oil will fall. The overshoot temperature ensures that the fries cook at the optimal temperature, even after they initially cause the oil temperature to drop.

When the timer finishes counting down, the alarm will sound to signal the end of the cooking cycle. PRESS TIMER, FRIES - TWICE FRIED, 1ST FRY and FRESH, the time and temperature will be displayed.

4.Push the TIMER button to stop the alarm and raise the basket. The deep fryer will automatically begin to reheat. Once the deep fryer has reached the correct temperature, it is ready

to proceed.

NOTE

In FRIES - TWICE FRIED mode it is possible to adjust the timer and temperature once the timer has

started but it is not possible to switch between 1ST FRY and 2ND FRY.

At this point, the fryer is able to proceed to either the 2ND FRY or to another 1ST FRY of a second batch of fries, depending on the total quantity to be fried. FRIES - TWICE FRIED, FRESH, 1ST FRY, PRESS TIMER, the time and cooking temperature display.

NOTE

If a second batch of fries is to be cooked, we recommend to 1ST FRY both batches and then proceed to the 2ND FRY for both batches. This process means less heating and

cooling of oil, providing better results and is more time efficient.

PAgeCookingheaderwith.....your BREVILLE product

Proceeding to 2ND FRY

1.Empty the contents of the basket onto a plate lined with paper towel to cool slightly.

2.Push the SCROLL/SELECT knob. 1ST FRY starts to flash and

2ND FRY is displayed. Turn the SCROLL/SELECT knob to highlight 2ND FRY. 2ND FRY starts to flash to show it has been highlighted. Press the SCROLL/SELECT knob to confirm. 1ST FRY will now disappear. The

deep fryer will move to the heating stage until the correct temperature is reached. FRIES - TWICE FRIED,

FRESH, 2ND FRY, HEATING and the actual temperature of the oil will show.

When the oil has reached the correct temperature, PRESS TIMER will display.

3.Fill the basket with the 1st fried batch. Lower the basket into the deep fryer and press the TIMER button. PRESS TIMER will disappear. The timer will begin to count down. When the timer finishes counting down, the alarm will sound

to signal the end of the cooking cycle. PRESS TIMER displays.

4.Press the TIMER button and raise the basket. Allow to drain and cool, then turn out into a lined bowl.

Repeating 1ST FRY with new batch of fresh fries

1.Empty the contents of the basket onto a plate lined with paper towel to cool.

2.Follow the instructions for 1ST FRY above.

Custom Mode

The CUSTOM cooking mode has a default setting of 5:00 minutes and 320°F. This can be changed by turning the SCROLL/ SELECT knob to CUSTOM and then changing either the time or temperature or both. If the default settings in custom mode are changed, the deep fryer will remember the last settings that have been selected, even after being unplugged.

NOTE

If using the lid during and immediately after cooking, steam may rise through the filter vent openings in the lid. This is normal, however avoid touching this area during cooking

to prevent steam burns as the steam generated is at a high temperature.

As the basket gets very hot, only use the handle to hold or carry the basket for serving. Ensure the basket handle is locked into position.

Solid oil products, such as butter, margarine or animal fats of any kind should not be used in the deep fryer as they may overheat and cause a

fire hazard.

Water and oil do not mix – never add any water or other liquid to hot oil. Even small amounts of water will cause the oil to splatter.

The deep fryer will generate a lot of heat and steam during and after the cooking process. To prevent the risk of burns, do not touch or block the steam ventilation area on the lid.

Extreme caution must be used when the deep fryer is filled with hot oil or other liquid. Do not move the deep fryer during cooking and allow it to cool before removing oil.

COOKING TECHNIQUES

& TIPS

cooking techniques & Tips

Foods should be crisp when deep fried.

If results are soggy, the oil isn’t hot enough. This can be attributed to one or more of the following:

•Not enough preheating time

•Temperature too low

•Too much food in the basket

(do not fill more than two thirds full)

•Do not use solid frying oil, only use liquid oils

Use good quality liquid oil. For best results, use the below recommended oils

NOTE

If cooking large quantities of food (approx 1.25–1.75lbs), it is not recommended to cook with the lid on due to the possible build up of excess condensation.

The most suitable oils for deep frying include:

All oils have different smoke points. Smoke points are the point at which the fat begins to break down into visible gaseous products.

•The smoke point of different fats is determined by the free fatty acid content of the fat. Generally, the lower the free fatty acid content the more stable the fat and the higher the smoke point.

•Free fatty acid levels are generally lower in refined vegetable oils with a smoke point of around 445°F. Where as animal fats are around 375°F.

•The smoke point of a deep-frying fat is lowered every time it is used. Food particles are always left behind after cooking. This will also lower the smoke point of the fat.

•Suitable oils for deep frying include: Peanut oil, Vegetable oil, Canola oil, Safflower oil and Rice Bran oil. Olive oil is not recommended for deep frying due to its low smoke-point temperature. These oils are described below:

Peanut Oil

Peanut oil is obtained from the kernels of the ground nut or peanut. It has a delicate flavor, nutty odor and has a high smoke point. Peanut oil is high in mono-unsaturated oil and vitamin E.

Vegetable Oil

A general term that refers to a blend of oils extracted from various seeds and fruits. Vegetable oil has a very mild flavor and aroma. It is low in cholesterol and saturated fats.

Canola Oil

Made from seeds of the canola plant. It is relatively low in saturated fats, contains Omega 3 fatty acids and has a bland, neutral flavor.

SUNFlower Oil

The oil is extracted from the seeds of the sunflower plant. It is pale yellow in color with virtually no flavor. Sunflower oil is high in polyunsaturated fats and low in saturated fats.

SAFFLOWER OIL

Safflower oil is derived from the seeds of the safflower. It is strong in flavor, rich in color and has a high smoke point. Safflower oil is high in polyunsaturated fats and vitamin E.

NOTE

Do not overfill the basket. Large quantities of food may cause the Oil to bubble and overflow. Small batches of food cook much better and make operation of the Deep Fryer safer.

cooking techniques & Tips

Method for the perfect fries

1.Select any of the following oils: peanut oil, safflower, sunflower oil,

vegetable oil.

2.Use a starchy unwashed potato such as a Russet potato.

3.Wash and peel potatoes.

4.Cut into ¼ inch thick fries and place into a large bowl. Cover with cold water and juice of a lemon to prevent potatoes from browning.

5.When ready to use, drain and dry thoroughly with paper towel.

6.Fill deepfryer with 4 quarts of oil.

7.Set deepfryer to FRIES - TWICE FRIED/ FRESH setting.

8.Select 1ST FRY and press the START/CANCEL button to PREHEAT the oil.

9.Cook 1lb batches of fries at a time.

10.Place fries into basket and lower into hot oil. Press TIMER button. Cook until the alarm sound signals end of cooking cycle.

11.Remove fries from oil and drain on a tray lined with paper towel; refrigerate until cooled.

12.Continue this method until all the potatoes have been through the 1ST FRY.

13.Alternatively, to continue cooking fries directly onto 2ND FRY, leave blanched fries in basket and drain on basket hook.

14.Select FRIES - TWICE FRIED/ FRESH setting and choose 2ND FRY. Press START/CANCEL button to PREHEAT the oil and continue as below.

15.Place fries into basket and lower into hot oil. Press TIMER button. Cook until the alarm sound signals end of cooking cycle.

16.Remove fries from basket and drain onto a tray lined with paper towel.

17.Season with sea salt and serve immediately.

NOTE

Twice fried fries temperatures are based on 1lb load of fresh hand cut potato fries.

Types of potatoes that make the most succulent fries include the following:

Kennebec, Russet, Sweet and Purple.

When should I change the oil? What should I look for?

It is recommended to change the oil every week if deep fryer is used every day.

If using once or twice a week, the oil can be changed every three weeks.

There are distinct indicators that will show you when your oil is no longer deep frying effectively. These include:

•The surface of the oil will begin to foam once heated.

•Smoke will appear on the surface of the oil before the recommended deep frying temperatures are reached.

•Oils can develop an ‘off’ smell. This indicates that the oil has become rancid.

•The oil’s odor is that of the foods you have cooked eg. seafood.

•The oil will change in viscosity, that is, it will pour slowly and become thick with a syrupy appearance.

cookingPAge headtechniquesr. & Tips

Storage and preparation of used oil

Re-using your oil is best achieved if proper methods are used after and during cooking.

1. Never season or salt food before or during cooking as it will burn and discolor the oil. This in turn shortens the lifespan of your oil.

2. Cool oil completely before pouring through a coffee filter or cloth to remove food solids and debris.

3. Store in a sealed container either in the refrigerator or in a cool dark cupboard.

4. Repeat the filtering and cleaning process after each use.

5. Properly dispose of old used oil according to council requirements.
