Draining fat away

Frying oil can normally be used for ap-
prox. 6-10 batches. Between each
use, the oil should be poured through a
metal sieve lined with kitchen paper, as
oil containing impurities is liable to
catch light.
There is a drain tap under the base of
the oil reservoir for draining away the
oil and for draining away any water
which has collected in the cold oil zone.
Before draining off solid fat, turn the
selector to the highest temperature
to just liquefy the fat.
Be careful
not to burn yourself with oil or fat
that is still hot.
Let hot oil cool down to a safe level,
but still remain liquid before drain-
ing.
Place a suitable container able to
withstand heat under the drain tap.
Open the tap by turning the lever
90° to the right.
To close the tap turn the lever as far
as possible to the left.
