Making home-made fries

  •  Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
  • For best results, soak the potato sticks in water for 30 minutes.
  • Rinse the potato sticks thoroughly and dry them with paper towels.
  •  Pour 1/2 tablespoon of canola oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top, and mix until they are coated with oil.
  • Remove the sticks from the bowl with a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the Basket on top of the Trivet.

NOTE:
– Do not tilt the bowl to pour the potato sticks into the Basket. Transfer them with a kitchen utensil in smaller batches to prevent excess oil to be transferred.
– Air-fry the potato sticks according to the instructions above. Cooking time and temperature are required to be adjusted depending on the quantity.

HINTS AND TIPS

  • This appliance can be used to prepare many foods that can also be prepared in a traditional oven.
  •  Smaller food normally requires less cooking time than larger food.
  • It is recommended to cook defrosted food and cook from a refrigerated temperature to shorten the cooking time. Note: some foods do not require thawing, please refer to the specific cooking instructions for the food you are preparing.
  • It is recommended to use a meat thermometer to check the cooking progress.
  • For short cooking times, it is recommended to turn the Time Control Knob TIME 5 minutes past the required time and then turn it back to the required cooking time. This will ensure higher timer accuracy and that the timer will turn off once reaching 0.
  •  In the event of food flare-ups, do not remove the Basket; turn the Time Control Knob to 0 and unplug the appliance.
  • Wait at least 30 minutes before attempting to remove the Trivet from the Basket.
  • For evenly crispy food, we recommend shaking the food through the cooking process. Recipes with a shorter cooking time (<10 min) require at least one shake, halfway through the cooking process. Longer recipes (>10 min) require shaking 2-3 times through the cooking process. For best results, shake at least every 8 minutes.
  •  The optimal amount for cooking crispy fries is up to 0.8lb of sliced potatoes.
  • Use the pre-made dough to cook filled snacks quickly and easily. The pre-made dough also requires a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
  • Place a baking tin or oven-compatible dish in the Basket with Trivet if you want to bake a cake, quiche or if you want to fry fragile or filled ingredients.
  • You can also use the appliance to reheat food. Place food into the appliance, and then set the Temperature Control Knob around 290°F and the Time Control Knob
    to 10 minutes.
