Description of Tower Deep Fat Fryer with a 3 Litre
The Tower Deep Fat Fryer has a 3 Litre capacity, which is perfect for cooking large quantities of food at once. The adjustable temperature control allows for precise cooking, ensuring perfectly fried food every time. The cool-touch exterior makes it safe to handle, even while cooking. The fryer also comes with a basket for easy food removal and draining. Its compact design makes it easy to store in any kitchen.
How to Use
Filter system: The lid is fitted with a permanent filter system, which collects drops of oil from the steam as it passes through the filter. The filter should be replaced after approximately 60 uses.
- Viewing window: Coat the inner face of the viewing window with the oil to prevent condensation forming and to enable cooking process to be checked.
- Thermostat and indicator light: The thermostat is calibrated in steps marked, 130°C, 150°C, 170°C, and 190°C, which offers you the best temperature to suit the food to be fried.
- Temperature light The temperature light will light automatically while the temperature keeps rising and go out when the set temperature is reached.
- Power light: Will light automatically when the appliance is plugged in.
Fryer basket with folding handle: The folding handle on the fryer basket allows you to raise and lower the basket whilst the lid is closed. When the basket is first lowered in to the fryer and the lid is down, pull the switch on the handle down. This will allow you to pull the handle down fully and fit it into place on the body of the fryer.
Auto Open: The specially designed lid release button helps you to open the lid of the fryer easily and safely. Push the button for the fryer lid to automatically open. This keeps your hands safely out of the way as steam escapes from the Deep Fat Fryer.

TIPS
- Certain vegetables, such as potatoes will not require a coating as they form a natural skin around themselves. However, most meat and fish will require a batter or breading.
- Gently lower food into the oil.
- Don’t overfill the fryer. It’s better to fry in batches.
- Take into account the type of food you are cooking when selecting a frying temperature. Generally, pre-cooked food will require a higher temperature and less cooking time than raw food.
- CAUTION: Certain foods may begin to turn golden brown before they are fully cooked. Always check the food is fully cooked before serving.
Oil
- Always start with clean oil. To keep your oil clean, strain out any food remnants after use, and replace the oil completely after 8 - 10 uses.
- Suitable oils to use in your fryer include vegetable, sunflower, sesame, groundnut, corn, soy, hazelnut and rapeseed.
- Peanut oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil and canola oil are the best choices as they have ‘high smoke points’. This means they don’t break down at deep frying temperatures.
- If you use the same oil for frying repeatedly, the temperature at which the smoke point occurs is lowered. This happens less in rapeseed and sunflower oils.
- Avoid using olive oil, butter or margarine in your fryer as they are unsuitable for cooking at such high temperatures.
- Different oils have different tastes to them. Canola oil tastes fairly neutral, hazelnut oil has a distinctive taste, light sesame oil has a nutty flavour which is especially good for frying, and rapeseed oil is a popular choice with a light and delicate taste. Peanut oil doesn’t absorb or transfer flavours, making it good for cooking – however, its smoking point is lower than that of corn or safflower oil.
- Almond, avocado and cottonseed oil are also great to fry with, although they are harder to find and more expensive.
- Rapeseed oil is also a healthy choice as it has less unhealthy saturated fat than all other cooking oils, along with being a rich source in vitamin E.
- Change the oil in your fryer after every 8 – 10 uses. When you do change the oil, never pour it down the drain. Dispose of it safely according to the guidelines of your local council.
- Do not attempt to empty or change the oil when the machine or oil is still hot. Allow to cool completely before cleaning or moving. When the oil is cool, remove the oil tank and tip and pour to empty.
