Fryer basket HENDI 930632

A fryer basket holds food below the oil surface while it cooks, allowing hot oil to circulate evenly around each piece. The perforated base and sides let oil drain away when the basket is lifted, so food emerges crisp and free of excess fat. This method keeps the oil cleaner for longer and speeds up service by cooking batches in a single motion.

To use the basket, fill the fryer vat with oil and heat it to the required temperature. Load the food into the basket, lower it gently into the oil, and secure the handle on the fryer rim. When the food is done, lift the basket, let the oil drain back into the vat, and transfer the food to a tray or serving dish. The basket's open construction means no food sticks to the sides, so each batch comes out consistent.

The basket is built for repeated use in a professional kitchen. Its frame and mesh are made from corrosion-resistant metal, so it withstands daily immersion in hot oil without warping or rusting. The handle is long enough to keep the operator's hands clear of the oil surface, and the hook at the end fits securely over the fryer rim to prevent accidental tipping.

This HENDI basket is made to fit the 6 litre fryer vats in the HENDI range, ensuring a stable, centred position that prevents food from shifting during frying.
