Overview

A home cook who fries regularly gets an immersed-element fryer with a lid, two baskets and a removable oil pot. Food goes into the hot oil and comes out with the lid closed, which limits splatter. A breakaway cord pulls free if it is tugged.

Lowering and lifting food with the lid shut is the reason to look at this fryer, because the oil stays contained during frying. The removable pot makes washing less awkward. Confirm the temperature range and any timer with the maker before counting on precise settings.

Who it's for

A kitchen with spare counter space and a regular need for fried food in modest batches suits this fryer. Cooks who want a stated temperature range or a digital timer should look elsewhere, since neither is described.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Lid allows covered lowering and lifting
  • Removable oil pot for washing
  • Two baskets included
  • Breakaway cord detaches if pulled
Cons
  • Temperature range not listed
  • Oil volume limits large batches
  • Takes noticeable counter space

Performance notes

Frying quality depends on how well the heating element holds the oil at the chosen temperature once cold food goes in. A submerged element heats the oil directly, so there is no wall between the heat and the oil. Smaller batches limit the temperature drop and give more even browning.
