how to remove oil from your fryer
Before removing oil from your fryer ALWAYS switch off, unplug and allow the oil
to cool completely.
1. You will need a slotted spoon, a suitable tray or large plate, kitchen paper, a funnel or
jug with a pouring lip, muslin (if reusing the oil), and the original oil bottle you saved
earlier! If you’ve thrown it away, any suitable sized bottle with a lid will do.
2. Using a slotted spoon, skim off any food scraps oating on the surface of the oil.
3. If you have used it, remove the basket from your fryer and place it on kitchen paper
to drain.
4. Next, place the oil bottle in the sink, remove its cap and place the funnel in the top. If
you wish to reuse the oil, line the funnel with a piece of muslin to act as a lter.
5. Remove the lid from your fryer (see page 17) to avoid it falling off when you tip the oil
out of the bowl.
6. Using both hands, carefully pick up your fryer by the carrying handles on each side.
7. Take it over to the sink and pour the oil from the bowl slowly into the bottle through
the funnel. Alternatively, pour the oil into a jug that has a pouring lip and use this to
transfer the oil into the bottle.
7. When all the oil has been poured into the bottle, remove the funnel (discard the
muslin, if used), and replace the bottle cap. The oil can now either be stored for
reuse, or discarded safely and cleanly.
8. You can now clean your fryer—see page 17.
Always dispose of the oil in an environmentally safe way. Never pour the oil into
drains. Contact your recycling centre for advice on the disposal of the oil.
