45076 rev1 22/3/07 08:52 Page 3

2244
Morphy Richards may cause
fire, electric shock or injury.
• Always dry food before frying
eg. chips which are too wet can
cause the hot oil to froth
excessively.
• Never pour oil out of the fryer
with the bowl in position.
Children
• Never allow a child to operate
this appliance. Teach children to
be aware of dangers in the
kitchen, warn them of the

Removal of the
control panel
1Lift up the fryer body at the front
as shown and pull out the
control panel G.
2Replace by locating the control

fully in.
3Once the control panel is in
place route the mains cable to
the side or out of the back,
whichever is convenient.
Replacing the oil tank

and lift out the panel. The mesh
filter can be left to soak in hot
soapy water to clean. Allow to
drain and dry before replacing
I.
Filling with oil
Pour oil into the tank up to the
maximum level indicated
(approx. 3.1 litres of oil).
Lightly smear the inside of the
viewing window with the oil to
inhibit any condensation which
could reduce visibility.
Use good quality liquid
vegetable oil, see ‘Getting the
best from your fryer’ on page 6.
COOKING
WARNING: Never operate
the fryer without oil in the
oil tank.
1Lower the basket (if required)
and close the lid.
2Plug into the mains and switch
the power on at the socket.
3The red power light and green
temperature light will illuminate.
4Set the variable temperature
control to the required setting
see ‘frying times and
temperature section’ on page
9/10.
5The fryer is now pre-heating the
oil, the green temperature light
may go out and come back on
once or twice during pre-heat.
This is normal. After approx. 15
minutes the oil will be at the
correct temperature.
6Lift the lid.
• Do not over fill the basket when
frying, the food must be covered
with the bubbling hot oil,
depending on the size and
shape of the food to be cooked.
There are two methods of
cooking in your fryer, one
general method for most food
types and another for home
battered products.
General cooking
method (with the basket)
1Place the basket in the raised
position. The basket should
always be in the raised position
when it is to be filled with food.
2Place the food, which should be
dry as possible, into the raised
basket. When frying frozen food,
avoid adding ice particles to the
hot oil. Remove the basket from
the fryer, add the frozen food
and shake the basket to remove
excess ice and frost. The oil
temperature and oil life
expectancy will be improved.
3Lower the basket onto the
basket rest ‚.

4Lower the lid (to prevent spitting
of hot oil).
5Lower the basket to the frying
position.
• You can observe the cooking
process by raising the lid or
looking through the viewing
window to observe progress.
6When the food is cooked, raise
the lid, lift the basket out of the
oil, give it a shake, and place it
in its raised rest position for a
few seconds to drain.
7Lift the basket out and shake
the fried food into a dish with oil
absorbing kitchen paper.
8After use, disconnect from the
mains supply and allow to cool.
Wipe any spilt oil from the fryer
body.
Cooking home-
battered foods
(without the basket)
This method allows for the fact
that if wet batter is placed in the
basket prior to cooking the food
may stick.
1Leave the basket fully
submerged in the oil.
2Dip food in the batter until it is
evenly coated and allow to drain
for a moment to remove excess
batter.
• To check that the oil is hot
enough for your battered food,
drop a drip of batter into the oil.
If the oil is hot enough the batter
should immediately rise to the
surface but should not smoke. If
this action causes any smoke
then the temperature is too high
and should be reduced.
3Once evenly coated, carefully
lower your battered food into the
hot oil and allow to ‘seal’ for
about 30 seconds before
turning. See table on page 9/10
for frying times and quantities of
food per fry.
4Fry until batter is golden brown
and the food inside is cooked
but not dried out.
WARNING: Take care as the
oil may spit as the food is
added.

GETTING THE BEST
FROM YOUR FRYER
Oil
• Always ensure that you use
good quality oil for deep frying.
We recommend liquid vegetable
oils, alternatively use corn,
groundnut or rapeseed oil. Avoid
mixing oils of different types and
quality.
• Solid fat (lard) and solid oil can
be used, this should be first
melted in a pan until softened,
then carefully transferred into
the fryer tank.
• Change the oil when it becomes
brown or cloudy in colour,
usually after frying 15 times.
IMPORTANT: Do not switch the
fryer on until the fryer tank is
filled with oil or solid oil or lard.
Cooking tips
• Your food must always be
completely dry in order to avoid
overflowing, to prolong the use
of the oil and to give a crispier
finish to the food.
• Pieces of food should be of the
same size and thickness.
• As a general guide pre-cooked
foods need a higher cooking
temperature than raw foods.
• Do not overload the basket as it
may cause a drop of
temperature that may leave the
food greasy.
• Cook your food thoroughly.
Remember that your food may
begin to turn golden brown
before it is cooked through.
• Avoid leaving food to drain for
too long in the basket as the
food may become soft and lose
its crunchiness.
• Select your cooking utensils
with care. Do not use utensils
that may melt. When using metal
utensils, take care not to
damage the non-stick coating of
the bowl.
• All foodstuffs contain moisture.
When lowered into the hot oil
the water turns to steam. Most
of the steam escapes
harmlessly through the lid vent,
but trapped steam may escape
when opening the lid - so care is
needed.
Chips
• Old potatoes are ideal for
making chips.Your chips should
be evenly sized so that they
cook evenly. They should be
rinsed in a colander under a
cold tap and dried using a
kitchen towel or absorbent
paper. For best results fry your
chips for 10-12 minutes; shaking
the basket at intervals to ensure
chips get an overall browning.
• For best results, we recommend
no more than 900g of frozen
chips or 1.2kg of fresh chips are
fried per batch.

EMPTYING,
CLEANING &
STORING
WARNING: Cleaning should
only be carried out with the
plug removed from the
socket. The fryer should
have completely cooled.
Allow 3 hours for cooling.
1Remove the lid.
2Remove the basket.
3Take the oil storage container
and remove the lid, ensuring the
filter is left in.
4Lift out the tank Jand carefully
pour the oil from the corner of
the tank, Kinto the oil storage
container.
• Once the oil is in the storage
container screw the lid back on.
5Wash the lid, basket, handle,
ladle and the inside of the tank
by hand with hot soapy water.
• The lid can be washed in a
dishwasher.
• The basket and tank should
NOT be washed in a
dishwasher.
6Clean the body of the fryer with
a warm moistened cloth,
washing up liquid can be used.
WARNING: Never immerse
the control panel in water,
if required remove any
stains with a moistened
cloth.
7Dry all parts of your fryer
thoroughly and reassemble all
parts with the max and min at
the back of the oil tank. Refer to
the ‘Assembly Sequence’ on
page 4.
• The outside of the tank is not
non-stick coated, if care is
taken, it is unlikely to become
dirty. If oil does drip down the
exterior when the oil is being
emptied out, make sure that it is
hand washed thoroughly. The
exterior may appear
discoloured, this is quite normal
and will not detract from the
performance of the fryer.
8Place the basket back into the
tank, then the oil storage
container and ladle L. This
allows for efficient storage.
