Recommended Frying Temperatures The actual temperatures and times used for frying will depend on the type of equipment used, the throughput and oil recovery rate, the size of the pieces being fried, the nature and condition of the frying fat or oil and upon local taste. However, the following temperatures and times are offered as a guide. Frozen foods may take up to a minute longer than the times indicated. Items Suggested Temperatures Approximate Time °C °F (minutes) Potato Chips, straight through 188 370 4-5 Potato Chips, blanching 166 330 4-6 Potato Chips, Browning 191 375 2-3 Potato Chips, frozen, blanched 180 355 4-5 Fish (battered pieces) 188 370 3-5 Prawns and Scampi (battered) 177 350 3-5 Meat cutlets 177 350 3-6 Chicken Pieces 171 340 6-12 Sausages 177 350 1-2 Fruit Fritters 177 350 2-4 Vegetables 177 350 2-4 Onion Rings 177 350 2-4 Doughnuts 188 370 1-2 Choux paste 182 360 1-2
wow !
sounds like a bad initor and or a bad safety valve, i would replace the gas valve at the rear completely and while you have the gass off and disconnected see if your ignitor glows, even if it does glow it could still be bad it neeeds to draw enough amps to open the gas valve, be careful
Good luck with it. Im on a search for the same thing. I called mattel and they do not even have a clue what toy i am talking about. I only have the frency fry maker, hamburger snack maker, cookie maker and shake maker. im not much help but the french fries are just bread ran thur the machine with cinnamon and sugar mix sprinkled on them. lol would you be interested in selling the pcs you have? I wanted to give my daughter the whole set for her bday. and the other pcs are from my childhood [email protected]
It seems to me that if the fries always turn out to soggy what you need to do is to cook them at a higher temperature for a shorter period of time, I think they are sitting in the oil far to long hence the soggy result.
Oil darkens with use the oil food molecules burn when subjected to high prolonged heat.
When frying foods such as fish or chicken use the oil once.
Do not filter oil over to reuse. Storing the oil in the refrigerator
may extend the life of the oil, this should not be done ever. This
process of chilling the oil and then burning the oil to room
temperature causes excessive splattering furing the heat up.
Storing the covered oil in a cool dark place, for up to three
months. ( remember to check oil when you use for color, smell, or
excessive foaming. Throw out if there is signs of all the above.
This unit has a warranty for one year from the day of purchase.
Cooking:
When starting let unit reheat 7-10 minutes. This will get the heat
to desired temperature. Re4ady light will cycle on/off during frying as
temperature fluctuates due to food load.
Types of foods cooking: temperatures and time of cooking
Chicken strips 375 F. 5-8 minutes
Chicken pieces, bone-in 375 F. 15-20 minutes
Fish, battered 340 F. 8-10 minutes
French fries, frozen 375F. 3-5 minutes
F375F. 3-5 minutes
Onion rings 375 F. 3-5 minutes
Shrimp, breaded 375 F. 2-5 minutes
When frying frozen food if iced rub off lose as this can make the
temperature of oil cool down. Pre-cooked frozen food cooks faster and
does not come out oily.
I cannot wait to start cooking in mine as I got it for a christmas gift. Great recipes in the owners manual:
Apples fritters yum yum,beer batter for fish or chicken, deep fried
chicken , chicken Kiev, quick doughnut made from biscuits, add topping
of ground cinnamon and suger.
Place the oil tub in the housing, and put the control unit on the back of the housing with the heating element inside the oil tub. Put room temperature (not chilled) shortening and/or lard in the oil tub. (Solid fats make better french fries, IMO.) Put the unit where you aim to cook, on a clear expanse of counter, where no one will knock it off. You are about to make boiling oil, and the potential for injury is truly medieval. Attach the magnetic power cord to the back of the control unit, and position the unit with the front of the control unit, which is at the back of the oil tub, facing you. Plug it into the wall. The magnetic cord attachment is easily knocked off, which is a safety feature, so don't knock it. If it comes off, just put it back on and restart the unit. Push button at lower right of control unit that looks like a 0 and 1 superimposed on each other. This is the power button. Put the lid on the unit with the two slots on top of the lid facing towards the front of the unit where you are. These two slots are where the basket will sit, but you haven't used the basket yet. Adjust the temperture using the + and- buttons. 375 is good for french fries. Now wait until the red light goes out and the green light (I believe) stays on. Now it's up to temperature and you can cook. Put frozen or washed and patted-dry (with a towel) french fried potatoes or battered fish or whatever you want to cook in the wire basket. Quickly lower the basket into the oil and replace the lid: back edge goes down first, then front of lid last. Set the unit's timer if desired, or just use your own timer. It will beep at you when your time is up. When you're done, you can wash the basket by hand or in the dish washer and wipe the unit off with a warm soapy dish cloth. Wait until the oil is cool to room temp before attempting to put the unit in a cupboard. Very hazardous with large potential for mess otherwise!
