Which Deep Fat Fryer

[quinie]

Can anyone recommend a deep fat fryer with removable bowl please? I've always had a Kenwood but they don't make them any more.I had made up my mind not to replace it but I do miss my home-made chips!Thank you for any help.

Does it really make sense to maintain a vat of fat yourself?

Personally I would stick to the one at my favourite local chip shop for the once in a while I have some chips.

However the best chips I ever had was thirty years ago when I lived in a hippy commune where we made chips on a wood stove in a vat of ghee we produced from the milk of our own cows.

I don't like those Tesco chips at all. Can't beat proper home made chips.

What is Tesco? They sell everything?

Their chips are probably cooked in pure transfats or used motor oil.

Go and find a family run fish and chip shop.

Sorry for the delay in answering - computer's playing up.
Thank you all for your input.
I've tried frozen chips but prefer home made ones.
Nibble,I've been looking at that one.Think I might go for it.
Good advice,beso, but not feasible for me!

[ummmm]

I have this.

I must have always lived by the wrong fish and chip shops. Chips from them have always been greasy, huge and very soggy - not a bad taste - but nothing like the taste and crispness you can get at home, even with oven chips.

And ZebUK gave us a great tip on how to clean them. Fill it up with water, drop in a dishwasher tab, and leave on low. Grease just wipes off.

I do my home made chips in my halogen oven and I only use about 1 tablespoon of oil stirred into the chips before putting them to cook.....I bought a halogen oven recently for £29.99 at maplins and it has more uses than frying....would not be without one now.... and much safer than a deep fat fryer.
