• Do not use metal utensils with the crisper drawer and tray, this will damage the non-stick coating, use heat resistant plastic or wooden utensils if you need to turn your food.

• When checking ingredients, place the crisper drawer on a heat resistant surface.

• Temperatures and timings can be altered during the cooking cycle if your food needs longer.

A GUIDE TO INGREDIENTS AND HINTS AND TIPS

• Not suitable for sausages with very high fat content. Hot oil can spit onto the heating element and cause the appliance to smoke.
• You can cook snacks that would normally be cooked in an oven in the Dual Air Fryer.
• You can use the Dual Air Fryer to reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for 10 minutes.
• Cut food into even sizes for even cooking

CHIPS
We recommend Maris Piper and King Edward potatoes for making chips. Store them in a dark cellar or in a cool cupboard away from light.

When you have peeled your potatoes, wash them thoroughly before cutting, and wash again once they have been cut – this will remove the starch.

Dry the chips using a highly absorbent clean tea towel or kitchen towel.

For crisper chips, coat your chips in oil and cook within a few minutes.

PLEASE NOTE: This is an oil free fryer that works on hot air DO NOT fill the crisper drawer with oil or any other liquid.

The thinner the chips, the crispier they will be. The thicker the chips, the fluffier on the inside they will be.

Change the cooking time according to the thickness of your chips. If you prefer chips to be crispy, try cooking for a couple more minutes.

To add a different taste to your chips, you can coat them in different types of oil.

You can also cook frozen chips in the Dual Air Fryer, as they are pre-cooked there is no need to add oil.

Olive oil cooking spray

Temperature: 200°C. Time: 7 minutes.

In a medium bowl, combine the courgette, Parmesan, egg, salt and pepper and mix until combined.

Mix in the garlic and chopped spring onion, then fold in the breadcrumbs.

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into the palm of your hand. Roll into a ball, then flatten into a pancake about 6mm thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Place the fritters in the basket of the Dual Air Fryer, leaving space between each one.

Spray on all sides with olive oil cooking spray.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is the Dual Air Fryer not working?

Check that the appliance is plugged in and switched on at the socket and the power light is illuminated. You may not have set the timer, set the timer key to the required preparation time. The Dual Air Fryer has overheat protection. If the inner temperature has exceeded a safe working temperature of 380°C there is a fault and the fuse has cut out. Contact the Lakeland customer care team.

Why is my food not cooked properly?

There may be too much food in the basket – check the recommended amount on the table on page 17. Alternatively, put smaller batches into the Dual Air Fryer – this will ensure food is cooked more evenly. The temperature may be too low, increase the cooking temperature. The cooking time may not be long enough, cook for another 5 minutes.

Why is the food cooked unevenly?

Some foods, such as chips and nuggets, need to be shaken half-way through cooking.

Why are the home-made chips not crispy?

Ensure you use the right type of potato (some give better results). When preparing the chips, make sure they are the same size, wash and dry them before putting in the Dual Air Fryer to remove the starch and lightly coat with oil to obtain a crisper result.

Why will the crisper drawer not slide into the Dual Air Fryer?

The crisper drawer is overfilled – remove some of the food and make sure it is not filled beyond half full. The crisper drawer may not be placed into the cooking cavity correctly. Push the crisper drawer into the cooking cavity until you hear it click.

Why is there excess steam coming out of the Dual Air Fryer?

RECYCLING YOUR ELECTRICALS

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires UK distributors to maximize separate collection and environmentally friendly processing of WEEE.

UK distributors (including retailers) are required to provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge.

As a responsible retailer, we have met these requirements by offering all customers buying new electrical and electronic equipment free take-back of their old electricals on a like-for-like basis.
