Stalgast Fryer 5 Litre Worktop Deep Fryer

A worktop deep fryer that heats a 5 litre oil vat with an electric element submerged below the basket. The element raises the oil temperature quickly, creating a crisp outer layer on food while sealing moisture inside. A wire basket lowers into the hot oil, holding portions clear of the element and allowing even cooking without stirring. The fryer's compact footprint fits tight kitchen layouts while still providing enough volume for small to medium batches of chips, fish, or other fried items.

To operate, the user fills the vat with oil to the marked level, switches the fryer on, and sets the thermostat to the required temperature. Once the oil reaches the set point, the basket is loaded with food and lowered into the vat. A timer or visual check signals when the food is ready; the basket is then lifted out, drained, and emptied. The fryer remains on standby, maintaining temperature for the next batch.

The fryer is built in stainless steel for durability and ease of cleaning. The exterior and vat are wipe-clean, while the basket and element can be removed for thorough washing. The 3.2 kW power rating draws a significant load, so the fryer should be connected to a dedicated 230 V circuit to avoid overloading shared kitchen supplies. Its 5 kg weight allows it to be moved by one person, though care is needed when the vat is full of hot oil.

The 190 mm depth, 425 mm width and 320 mm height provide a stable base on a worktop or counter, taking up minimal space while still accommodating the 5 litre oil capacity. The fryer is supplied as a single unit with no variants or accessories listed.
