At 2.2 liters of oil (rapeseed oil), I have a bag of chips (750g) was charged as the fat was hot (190 degrees). Some chips have not been fully covered by oil even by shaking the basket. So with the fork in and stirred. I can not imagine for the life like there to swim 1.5 kilos of frozen food in fat. I doubt there but very tuned. The first dive of my fries, the fat rapidly cooled down to about 40 degrees. This is clear because the fries are frozen - ie raised and maintained the basket again until the fat was back to 190 degrees. Then the fries back in and waited a few minutes. Timer I do not need, I fry by eye. If the fries are golden brown then I'll get them out. 4 people took the taste test: properly. Crispy on the outside and soft inside. The fries were thick, thin I would not recommend here will dry quickly. The next day, fried fish. Again, properly and really tasty. Outside crunchy breading, soft on the inside.
I have the fat and let it cool again filled with a funnel in the oil bottles where it came from. Then put in the fridge. Grease pan just washed by hand, packed frying basket in the dishwasher.
Conclusion: This is the most expensive fryer I have ever had. The No Name products which I had earlier have as good fried. Only they needed more oil. I have consciously taken this model because the fryer requires only 2, 2 L. oil. After all, who has been like always fiddling with gallons of oil? - I do not in any case! The Moulinex gets me 4 stars. I prefer a star off because the fryer with 750g. seems to be busy.
