Cookworks Stainless Steel Deep Fryer - 3 Litres

The chips we cooked with the XJ-10302 turned out pretty evenly. The batches were all cooked through thoroughly, with dark, well-done skins and dense middles. If you like your chips to have a bit of stodge to them, you’d enjoy the chips we made with this fryer.

The fryer has sufficient capacity to cook two generous portions of chips. It must be said that the maximum capacity for chips, 600g, is quite low relative to the fryer’s maximum oil capacity of 3 litres. Plus, there’s not much leeway between the minimum and maximum oil capacities.

One downside in terms of safety and quality is that the lid and basket feel a bit rickety. As such, the XJ-10302 is perhaps not the ideal option for people who want to create the safest barrier they can between themselves and the oil in their fryer.

This is a particularly easy fryer to clean. All the components, including the frying bowl, can be taken apart and cleaned individually. The stainless steel body of the fryer is simple in design and wipes clean well.
