TIPS
- Smaller foods usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger size foods.
- Shaking foods halfway through the cooking time improves the end result and can help prevent uneven cooking.
- Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. After adding a spoon of oil, fry the potatoes within a few minutes.
MAKING HOME-MADE CHIPS
For the best results, we advise to use frozen chips. If you want to make home- made chips, follow the steps below.
-
Choose a variety of potato recommended for making chips. Peel the potatoes and cut them into equal thickness chips.
-
Soak the potato chips in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes, drain them and dry them with a clean, highly absorbent tea towel. Then pat with paper kitchen towel. The chips must be thoroughly dry before cooking.
-
Pour 1 tablespoon of oil (vegetable, sunflower or olive) in a dry bowl, put the chips on top and mix until they are coated with oil.
-
Remove the chips from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that any excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Place the chips in the bowl.
Note: Do not tip the container of oil coated chips directly into the bowl in one go, otherwise excess oil will end up at the bottom of the bowl. -
Fry the chips according to the instructions in the section Cooking guide.
CLEANING
Clean the appliance after every use.
Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean
them, as this may damage the nonstick coating.
