Boiling
The sound or size of the bubbles in the water may
help you to choose the correct setting:
Frying
It is best when frying not to use food that has come
straight out of the refrigerator. Only about 2/3 of the
bottom of the pan should be covered by food.
Put the margarine or butter in the frying pan and
turn on to the recommended heat. In order to get the
best results, it is important that the fat is the right
colour (temperature) when you start frying. Hold a
light-coloured spatula to the bottom of the pan to see
the colour of the fat.
