MAKING HOME MADE FRIES:
For the best results, we advise to use pre-baked fries. If you want to make home-made fries,
follow the steps below:
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and
dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the sticks
are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil
stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the rolling cage.
5. Fit the rolling cage inside the air fryer.
6. Cook the fries for 10 – 16 mins at 200 Degrees.
ROTISSERIE:
•When the rotisserie stick is fitted inside the slots in the middle of the air fryer, pressing
the ROTISSERIE button will rotate the rotisserie stick.
•The rotisserie fork is a great way to cook a roast chicken inside the air fryer as it allows
even circulation and thorough cooking.
•Fitting the rolling cage onto the rotisserie stick is a great way to cook hot chips, popcorn
chicken and other smaller fried type of foods.
•Press the ROTISSERIE button to activate the rotation of the rotisserie stick/rolling cage.
•Press the ROTISSERIE button to stop the rotation.
Note: The total weight of a chicken/meat cooked using the rotisserie stick should not exceed
1.2 kg, as the rotation will scrape the drip tray in the bottom of the air fryer. Please use the
mesh basket if cooking a large chicken. Bind the legs and wings of the chicken with cooking
string.

TIPS:
• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.
• Large quantities of food only require a slightly longer cooking time than smaller quantities.
• Flipping or turning smaller sized foods halfway through the cooking process ensures that all
the pieces are evenly fried.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil on fresh potatoes is suggested for a crispier result. When adding
a little oil, do so just before cooking.
• Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the air fryer.
• Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires
a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
• Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires
a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
• Place an oven safe baking tin or dish (not included) inside the air fryer when baking a cake
or a quiche. A tin or dish is also suggested when cooking fragile or filled foods.
