TIPS
• Smaller foods usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger size foods.
• A larger amount of food only requires a slightly longer cooking time, a smaller amount of
food only requires a slightly shorter cooking time.
• Shaking smaller size 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.
• Do not cook extremely greasy foods in the Easy Fry.
• Snacks that can be cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the Easy Fry.
• The optimal recommended quantity for cooking fries is 700 grams.
• Use ready made puff and shortcrust pastry to make filled snacks quickly and easily.
• Place an oven dish in the Easy Fry bowl if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want
to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients. You can use an oven dish in silicon, stainless
steel, glass, terracotta.
• You can also use the Easy Fry to reheat food. To reheat food, set the temperature to 160°C
for up to 10 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.
1. Choose a variety of potato recommended for making chips. Peel the potatoes and cut them
into equal thickness chips.
2. 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.
3. Pour ½ tablespoon of oil (vegetable, sunflower or olive) in a dry bowl, put the chips on top
and mix until they are coated with oil.
4. Remove the chips from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that any excess oil
