Make restaurant-quality deep-fried food - crispy chicken, light tempuras, golden onion rings and calamari with crunch - right at home! The Cuisinart Deep Fryer has an extra-wide 9 inch X 9 inch fry basket that holds items with minimal stacking, so food cooks crispier all around. Basket clip allows fried food to be set over frying bowl to drain. A heating element, permanently affixed to the underside of the frying bowl, keeps oil a peak frying temperature, and the bowl lifts out to empty and clean. Our Deep Fryer fries more food in less oil than most other fryers, too, and temperature adjusts from 325F to 375F for perfect results, no matter what's cooking! Easy to clean. The lid, fryer basket and basket handle are all top rack dishwasher safe. Permanent washable filter.
