Product Information

Once golden, I removed the churros from the oil. The exterior was firm and crunchy, while inside, they were soft and slightly chewy. A few of the churros had singed slightly when they were initially dropped in, sinking to the bottom of the pan, but otherwise cooking was even and thorough.

Its strong and sturdy properties ensure a long-lasting appliance for your smaller cooking needsI piped pieces of warm churro dough directly into the oil – minus the basket – and left them to fry. This took around 12 minutes. While the dough cooked, the viewing window steamed up, and there was also steam emanating from the holes in the lid. As I couldn’t see how the churros were cooking, I had to lift the lid every few minutes. The lip at the side of the lid is a good idea for keeping the shape of the fryer compact, but in use I found that steam would rush out as the lid was lifted, requiring the need to wear oven gloves.

Lakeland Compact Electric Deep Fat Fryer 1.5 Litre

There’s no timer or on-off switch, and operation is controlled by a thermostatic dial, which goes up to 190ºC (with common frying temperatures of 150, 170 and 190ºC marked).You can fry by dropping food directly into the oil or by using its equally compact frying basket. This features a handle that can be folded in or detached for storage, and a hook so you can set it on the edge of the fryer to drain excess oil from the contents. 1.5 Litre Stainless Steel Fryer – What’s it like to use? There’s a reason why more expensive deep fat fryers, such as the Tefal FR804 OleoClean Pro, have removable oil tanks and pans – cleaning out a fixed one, even when it’s compact, is no fun. The VonShef model features a small notch around the rim of the pan, presumably to help oil pour out more smoothly when draining, but I found that it still dribbled and splashed over the worktop. As the lid is fixed, trying to empty the fryer involves holding it awkwardly to keep it open while pouring. Wiping out the majority of residual oil and food debris from the small pan then filling it with warm, soapy water to soak, was both time-consuming and messy. Next, I made chips from raw potatoes. After peeling, chipping and drying them, I piled the potatoes in the fry basket, and, following the advice in the instructions, submerged them into the oil while it was still cold. Then I set the dial to 170ºC. Or even What are the Top 10 affordable (best budget, best cheap, or even best expensive!!!) 1.5 Litre Deep Fat Fryer available? Etc. Admittedly, you’ll be able to get up to 20 uses out of the oil before having to empty and clean it out, so it’s not a job you’ll have to do every time you use the fryer. However, you may need to filter out leftover bits of food from the oil more regularly, so some way of pouring it out without drips would be a huge improvement. On the plus side, the basket is dishwasher-safe but the handle still required hand-washing. Should I buy VonShef 1.5L Deep Fat Fryer?
