cooking chips

Always use your fryer on a stable, secure, dry and level surface. Allow adequate space above and on all sides for air circulation. Do not allow the appliance to touch any flammable material during use (such as curtains or wall coverings). Care is required when using the appliance on surfaces that may be damaged by heat. The use of an insulated pad is recommended.

Your Halo fryer can be used to cook fresh or frozen chips, however, for the healthiest option, we suggest you try our perfect homemade chips on page 17.

Cooking chips uses the paddle to ensure even cooking. Foods such as mushrooms, diced potatoes, etc. can also be cooked using the paddle.

1. Press the lid release button and open the lid. 2. Fit the removable bowl then fit the paddle onto the spindle in the bowl. 3. Add the chips to the bowl. Distribute the chips evenly over the bottom of the bowl and

dont exceed the MAX indicator line on the bowl. 4. Add the recommended quantity of oil to the chips using the cooking oil measure.

Spread the oil evenly over the chips. Please refer to our cooking popular, convenience and frozen foods guide on page 14-15.

5. Close the lid and plug your fryer into a suitable mains supply and switch the socket on. Your fryer will beep, the display will light up blue and after a second or two will show 00.

Use the TIME button to enter the desired cooking time in minutes. If you keep your finger on the TIME button, the time will increase quickly. When you are near the desired time, make single presses of the button.

If you make a mistake press and hold the on/off button until your fryer beeps and the display once again shows 00. Re-enter the time as described above.

6. Press the on/off button and the display will turn orange, the halogen heater will illuminate and the fan will start. The timer will start to count down in minutes until 1 minute remains when it will count down in seconds.

7. When the cooking time has ended, your fryer will beep and the halogen heater will turn off. The fan will continue running until you open the lid.

Notes During cooking, you may open the lid at any time by pressing the lid release button. Doing this will switch off the halogen heater and the fan but the timer will continue to count down. Closing the lid will restart cooking. If you have had the lid open for some time, you may need compensate with additional cooking time after the original time has elapsed.

During cooking, the halogen heater will switch on and off from time to time. This is normal and allows your Halo Health Fryer to maintain an even cooking temperature.

guide to potatoes

There is nothing quite like a plate of homemade chipsespecially with your Halo Health Fryer doing all the hard work for you.

Did you know there are hundreds of varieties of potatoes grown around the world with about 80 different varieties grown commercially in the UK. Potatoes are usually divided into two cateorgories:

Floury potatoes These are generally lighter in colour, with a drier feel, perfect for homemade chips and jacket potatoes. Well known varieties are King Edward, Maris Piper and Rooster.

Waxy potatoes These are moist, firm and translucent and hold their shape wellgreat in salads. Examples of these include Charlotte and Jersey Royals

When choosing potatoes for our recipes, its worth buying the right type to achieve the best results. Many potatoes can be used for a variety of purposes. For example, the King Edward potato can be used for both homemade chips and our Dauphinoise recipe.

Usage Variety Homemade chips, cajun-style potatoes, roast potatoes

Maris Piper, King Edward, Sante, Rooster, Romano

Dauphinoise Charlotte, Desiree Jacket potatoes Maris Piper, King Edward

Beef and Caramelized Red Onion Burgers (Makes 4) 400g of good quality minced beef 1 small red onion, finely chopped 1 teaspoon of brown sugar 1 teapoon of dried mixed herbs 1 egg, beaten Handful of coriander leaves, chopped

To serve Bread rolls, cheese slices, sliced tomatoes, lettuce and ketchup

1. Remove the paddle from your Halo Health Fryer and insert the rack at its low height so the food is furthest away from the halogen heater.

2. In a frying pan gently saut the chopped red onion on a low/medium heat with the olive oil and brown sugar for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

3. Work the mince together in a bowl with the caramelized onions and the beaten egg. You want to combine the mixture so that all the ingredients are mixed but dont make it too mushy and soft.

4. Stir in the chopped coriander and the dried herbs. Season to taste. 5. Take a handful of the mixture and form it into a burger shape. The mixture should

make about 4 burgers. The thicker they are, the longer they will take to cook through. 6. Lay each burger on a board that has been covered in cling film and then cover them. 7. Put them in the fridge to chill for approximately 1 hour. This will help them to maintain

their shape while cooking. 8. When you are ready to cook the burgers, place them on the grill rack. 9. Cook for 8 minutes on one side then turn them over with a spatula, being careful as

your fryer will be hot. Cook them for a further 8-9 minutes until they are thoroughly cooked through

10. Serve the burgers on the bread rolls with cheese, tomato, lettuce and ketchup.

1. Remove the paddle from your Halo Health Fryer. 2. Pour the cream into a saucepan. If you are using a vanilla pod split it lengthways and

scrape the seeds into the cream. Then chop the pod into small pieces and add to the cream. Alternatively, pour in the vanilla extract.

4. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks together in a bowl until they are frothy and then whisk in the sugar.

5. Pour the cream into the eggs and sugar whisking constantly. This will slightly cook the eggs and the mixture will thicken somewhat.

Sponge recipe This quick all-in-one sponge cake recipe is suitable for a 25cm sponge or it will make 6-8 individual cupcakes or buns.

100g softened butter or margarine 100g castor sugar 2 eggs Few drops of vanilla essence 100g Self raising flour teaspoon baking powder

1. Place the ingredients into a bowl and using a hand mixer whisk all the ingredients together until a light creamy mixture is achieved.

2. Remove the paddle from your Halo Health Fryer and line the base of the bowl with baking parchment. Cut a hole in the centre of the parchment large enough to fit over the paddle drive spindle (approx. 40 mm).

3. Using a spatula, spread the cake mixture over the base of the bowl ensuring the mixture reaches the sides. Even out the mixture to ensure the cake rises evenly during baking.

4. Place the bowl inside your Halo Health Fryer and set the timer for 15 minutes. Press the on button.

5. At the end of the cooking time, remove the bowl carefully using the handle attachment.

6. Place the bowl onto a wire cooling rack for 5 minutes to cool. Turn the bowl over and the sponge will easily turn out. Peel off the baking parchment and leave to cool for a further 30 minutes.

7. This single layer sponge can be topped with cream and berries, or repeat the above steps to make another sponge for a Victoria Sandwich cake.

Fillings

Whipped cream, seedless raspberry jam, butter icing filling, fresh or frozen berries are all perfect ingredients which can be used for this light, golden sponge.

Individual Cup cakes 1. Prepare the recipe above. Fill 6-8 silicone cupcake moulds full with the cake

mixture. 2. Remove the paddle from your Halo Health Fryer. 3. Place the filled moulds inside the removable bowl, close the lid and set the timer for

10 minutes. 4. Once cooked, carefully remove the bowl, placing it onto a cooling wire. After 5

minutes remove the cakes from the bowl and cool for a further 15 minutes before decorating.

Halo Sponge Recipe Guidelines This recipe will make a 25cm sponge perfect for cutting into shapes and decorating for mini cake bites and decorated cakes, or for the base of a homemade fruit trifle.

Alternatively, double the mixture and make two sponges, which can then be filled and decorated.

When making a large sponge cake, always line the bottom of the bowl of your Halo Health Fryer with baking parchment. This will ensure the cake turns out perfectly each time. Cut a small hole in the centre of the parchment so that the parchment fits over the paddle drive spindle.

Because of the paddle drive spindle, any cakes you make will naturally have a hole in their centrebut dont worry because this can be filled with berries or fruits during decorating.

IMPORTANT: Always remove the paddle before making a cake.

No pre-heating is required; your Halo Health Fryer will cook the sponge in 12 15 minutes.

Do not attempt to bake more than the quantities recommended in the recipe at any one time. This will result in the cake thats burnt on the surface and uncooked in the centre. This recipe has been tested and produces a light sponge, which is perfect for filling with whipped cream and raspberry jam.

Alternatively, fill some individual silicone moulds full with the mixture and make some cup cakes. Your Halo Health Fryer bakes 6 large cup cake size buns in 10 minutes
