BREvILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETy FIRST
At Breville we are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with
the safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition we ask that you exercise
a degree of care when using any electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
•
Solid oil products, such as butter,
margarine or animal fats of any kind
should not be used in the deep fryer
as they may overheat and cause a fire
hazard.
Do not touch hot surfaces.
At no time should the deep fryer be left
unattended when in use.
The deep fryer will generate a lot of heat
and steam during and after the cooking
process. To prevent the risk of burns, do
not touch or block the steam ventilation
area on the lid. Remove lid to reduce
condensation build up.
Take care when opening the lid. This
product generate heat and steam at
high temperatures, which will escape
immediately when the lid is opened.
Avoid touching hot surfaces.
Do not place anything on top of the deep
fryer when the lid is closed, when in use
and when stored.
Always switch the deep fryer off at the
power outlet, then unplug and allow to
cool, if appliance is not in use, before
cleaning, before attempting to move the
appliance, disassembling, assembling
and when storing the appliance.

STEP 1 BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove lid from the deep fryer by grasping
the handle on top and lift off.
Remove any promotional materials and
packaging materials before use. Wash the
lid, removable inner bowl, stainless steel

from the deep fryer. Extend and lock the
basket handle into position by squeezing the
two handle prongs together, pull back and
lock behind the two wire supports extending
from edge of basket.
1. Place the deep fryer on a dry, level
surface. Ensure the deep fryer is not too

Foods should be crisp when deep fried.
If results are soggy, the oil isn’t hot enough.
This can be attributed to one or more of the
following:
PEANUT OIL
Peanut oil is obtained from the kernels
of the ground nut or peanut. It has a
delicate flavour, nutty odour and has a high
smoke point. Peanut oil is high in mono-
unsaturated oil and vitamin E.
•
•
•
Not enough preheating time
Temperature too low
Too much food in the basket (do not fill
more than two thirds full)

results, use the below recommended oils.
The most suitable oil for deep frying
include:
CANOLA OIL
All oils have different smoke points.
Smoke points are the point at which the fat
begins to break down into visible gaseous
products..
Made from seeds of the canola plant. It is
relatively low in saturated fats, contains
Omega 3 fatty acids and has a bland, neutral
flavour.
•
The smoke point of different fats is
determined by the free fatty acid content
of the fat. Generally, the lower the free
fatty acid content the more stable the fat
and the higher the smoke point.
SAFFLOWER OIL
The oil is extracted from the seeds of the
sunflower plant. It is pale yellow in colour
with virtually no flavour Sunflower oil is
high in polyunsaturated fats and low in
saturated fats.
•
•
Free fatty acid levels are generally lower
in refined vegetable oils with a smoke
point of around 230˚C. Where as animal
fats are around 190˚C.
The smoke point of a deep-frying fat
is lowered every time it is used. Food
particles are always left behind after
cooking will also lower the smoke point
of the fat.
RICE BRAN OIL
The oil is extracted from the germ and husk
of rice. It has a mild, nutty flavour and high
smoke point. It is high in vitamin E and
antioxidants.
•
Suitable oils for deep frying include:
Peanut oil, Vegetable oil, Canola oil,
Safflower oil and Rice Bran oil. Olive
oil is not recommended for deep frying
due to its low smoke-point temperature.
These oils are described below:

Method for the perfect chip
When should I change the oil? What
should I look for?
1. Peel and cut potatoes into an even 1cm
It is recommended to change the oil every
week if deep fryer is used every day.
thickness.
2. Soak in cold water overnight, changing
the water 2 or 3 times to remove the
starch.
If using once or twice a week, the oil can be
changed every three weeks.
There are distinct indicators that will show
you when your oil is no longer deep frying
effectively. These include:
3. Drain and dry thoroughly with paper
towel.
4. Preheat oil 130°C.
•
The surface of the oil will begin to foam
once heated.
Smoke will appear on the surface of the
oil before the recommended deep frying
temperatures are reached.
5. Fry in small batches (500g) for
5 minutes or until potatoes are cooked
but not coloured.
•
6. Remove and drain on paper towel.
Spread out chips to a single layer and
cool in refrigerator for 30-60 minutes or
until cold.
•
•
•
Oils can develop an ‘off’ smell. This
indicates that the oil has become rancid.
The oil’s odor is that of the foods you
have cooked eg seafood.
The oil will change in viscosity, that is, it
will pour slowly and become thick with a
syrupy appearance.
7. Increase oil to 190°C.
8. Fry in small batches (500g) for
6 minutes or until crisp and golden.
Remove and drain on paper towel.
Storage and preparation of used oil
9. Season with sea salt flakes.
Re-using your oil is best achieved if proper
methods are used after and during cooking.
Types of potatoes that make the most
succulent chip include the following:
1. Never season or salt food before or
during cooking as it will burn and
discolour the oil. This in turn shortens
the lifespan of your oil.
Bintje
Kennebec
Red rascal
Sebago
2. Cool oil completely before pouring
through a coffee filter or cloth to remove
food solids and debris.
Russet
King Edward
3. Store in a sealed container either in the
refrigerator or in a cool dark cupboard.
4. Repeat the filtering and cleaning process
after each use.
5. Properly dispose of old used oil

4. Punch risen dough and tip back onto a
floured surface, knead again for
5 minutes so that the dough is smooth
and very elastic.
5. Roll out dough to approximately 1 ½cm
thick. Use a 9cm round cutter to cut out
circles. Use a 3cm round cutter to cut
holes from the centre of the rounds to
make rings. Place rings onto a baking
tray lined with non-stick paper. Knead
remaining dough and repeat with cutters
until dough has been used up. Set aside
for 10-15 minutes or until risen.
