Frying Tips
Frying Food
• To avoid condensation buildup on the
cover window - rub a little cooking oil
on window.
• Do not mix different oils or new and
old oil together.
Peel away outer skin of celery root. Slice celery root into ⅛-inch thick slices.
Cut these slices into ¼-inch wide strips to form fries. Place egg whites into a
shallow bowl. Dip celery root into egg whites then sprinkle with mushroom
rub.
WARNING: When frying foods, remove
the frying basket from the Somersize
Electronic Deep Fryer before filling with
frozen food because oil will spatter and
can cause burns.
WARNING: When frying frozen foods
such as French Fries, you should not
exceed 1.25 lb. (350 grams) or less.
Clean off any ice from frozen food prior to
frying. Failure to do so may cause fryer to
overflow when food is placed in oil.
CAUTION: Never plug in the control
panel when it is not assembled to the
fryer body. Do not immerse the control
panel, power cord or plug in water or any
other liquid.
• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil
used to fry food with protein, (such as
poultry, meat and fish) should not be
reused. When oil is used mainly to fry
potatoes and is filtered after each use,
it can be used up to 8 to 10 times, but
do not use the same oil for more than
6 months.
• Always replace all oil as soon as it
starts foaming when heated or when
color becomes dark or when it has a
rancid smell or taste or becomes
syrupy.
Place ⅓ of the celery root into Frying Basket and lower basket into hot oil.
Fry until golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all
celery root is cooked. Season with salt and pepper.
CAUTION: This unit should not be used
to boil water.
• Make sure that the food to be fried is
dry.
• Remove loose ice from frozen food
before frying.
• To cook evenly, pieces should be the
same size and thickness.
• Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Do not attempt to defeat
Detachable “Break Away”
Power Cord
the magnetic cord connection by
attempting to permanently attach the
power cord to the Somersize
Electronic Deep Fryer.
SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN
PRO/FATS AND VEGGIES - LEVEL ONE
Makes 4 servings
Your Somersize Electronic Deep Fryer
has been specifically designed with
your safety in mind. Your Somersize
Electronic Deep Fryer has a unique
detachable power supply cord. This
power supply cord is designed to
“Break Away” from the fryer in the event
that the power cord or fryer is
inadvertently pulled or tugged. This is
intended to prevent the tipping of the
appliance and hazardous spillage of hot
oil. It is NOT intended to disconnect the
fryer during normal use.
How To Reset the Deep Fryer
If for some reason the deep fryer stops
heating, the reason might be that the
safety reset switch has disconnected. To
reconnect the deep fryer, follow the
instructions below:
• Allow the deep fryer to cool
completely.
• Remove the control panel from the
unit.
This recipe can be made with any parts of the chicken, with or without
skin; but if you prefer breasts and thighs, make them boneless. They cook
faster and the coating doesn’t get too dark while the chicken cooks
thoroughly.
Prep time: 35 minutes
Cooking time: 24 minutes per batch
To connect the power cord - note the
instructions on the cord plug area -
“THIS SIDE UP”. Place cord into
opening - you will feel the magnetic pull.
Slide cord into slot until it connects.
(Fig. 10)
• Push the thermostat reset button
located on the back of the control
panel with the back of a ball point
pen. (Fig. 11) The unit will beep to
indicate that it has re-set.

pepper, and cayenne pepper in a shallow bowl. Place eggs into a
separate shallow bowl.
CAUTION: Do not use the “Break
Away” power cord to disconnect the
Somersize Electronic Deep Fryer.
Always disconnect plug from electrical
outlet first before removing the power
cord.
Dip chicken into egg then dredge in Bake ’n Fry mixture. Place chicken, a
few pieces at a time, into Frying Basket and lower basket into hot oil. Fry
until chicken is browned and cooked through, 10-24 minutes (depending
upon size of chicken pieces). Drain on paper towels.
WARNING: The “Break Away” power
cord is only for accidental
disconnection of the Somersize
Electronic Deep Fryer. It is not to be
removed during normal operation. If
the cord should be disconnected from
the unit during operation, the user
should immediately unplug the
power cord from the electrical wall
outlet before any attempt to reconnect
the magnetic cord back to the
Somersize Electronic Deep Fryer unit.
Do not come in contact with the
magnetic connection of the power
cord while it is plugged into electrical
wall outlet. Injury can occur.

I have always loved deep fried turkey, but it’s a lot of work to heat a
huge pot of oil and lower an entire turkey into it. Here’s a way get
crispy, delicious, turkey legs without the mess!
When has finger food tasted so good? You might want to make a double
batch; they disappear in a flash!
Prep time: 6 minutes
Prep time: 3 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 34-40 minutes
Peanut or vegetable oil for frying
Peanut or vegetable oil for frying
3 large artichokes (about 12 ounces each)
2 lemons, halved
Lemon wedges, for garnish
Sea salt to taste
4 small turkey drumsticks (turkey wings work well too)
2 tablespoons Somersize Tuscan Sea Salt Rub
or Somersize Holiday Turkey Seasoning
Preheat oil in the Somersize Electronic Deep Fryer to 350° F.
Preheat oil in the Somersize Electronic Deep Fryer to 350° F.
Rub turkey legs generously with sea salt rub or turkey seasoning.
Place 2 of the turkey legs into Frying Basket and lower into hot oil.
Fry until well browned, 17-20 minutes, depending upon size. Repeat
with remaining turkey legs. Drain (on paper towels) and allow to cool
for at least 5 minutes before serving.
Trim stems, leaving at least 1 inch of stem on the artichokes. Cut off top
1½ inches of the artichokes with a serrated knife. Snap off outer layers of
leaves until pale yellow leaves with pale green tips are exposed. Trim dark
green fibrous parts from base and sides of artichoke with a paring knife.
Rub cut surfaces of artichokes with lemon.
Trim thick sides off of the stems to expose pale inner stem. Cut off any
green tops of the leaves then cut artichoke lengthwise into quarters to
create 4 wedges. Cut out purple leaves and fuzzy choke. Rub cut surfaces
with lemon.
Pat artichokes dry with paper towels. Place half of the artichokes in Frying
Basket and lower into hot oil. Fry until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well
(on paper towels) and season with salt. Repeat with remaining artichokes.

Frito Misto is Italian for a mixed fried plate of food. I think it’s a perfect
appetizer for a weekend party or when your family gathers. A taste treat to

This classic Russian dish is perfect for Somersize entertaining. In the
traditional version the chicken is wrapped around chilled herbed butter, but I
love the extra flavor of Swiss cheese. Roll them a day in advance and chill,
for an easy dinner party.
