5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1. Frying a Turkey

  1. Prepare Turkey: Ensure the turkey is completely thawed and pat it thoroughly dry with paper towels to remove all excess moisture. Inject with your preferred marinade and season the exterior.
  2. Preescalfeu l'oli: Plug the magnetic power cord into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Turn the temperature control dial to 375°F (190°C). The red 'POWER' light will illuminate. The green 'READY' light will turn on when the desired temperature is reached.
  3. Prepare Basket: For easier cleanup and to prevent sticking, lightly spray the chrome-wire basket with non-stick cooking spray.
  4. Lower Turkey: Carefully place the prepared turkey into the basket. Using the basket handle, slowly and gently lower the turkey into the hot oil. This slow process helps prevent oil from overflowing and reduces splattering.
  5. Temps de cocció: Fry the turkey for approximately 4 minutes per pound. Always cook poultry to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the breast.
  6. Rest Turkey: Once cooked, use the basket handle to lift the turkey and hook the basket onto the side clips of the fryer to allow excess oil to drain. Let the turkey rest for 20-45 minutes before carving to retain juices.
