TOP TIP:
If you don’t have a kitchen thermometer, you can check the oil is at the right temperature for frying by sticking the handle of a wooden spoon into the oil. The oil should start to bubble steadily. If it bubbles very vigorously, then the oil is too hot. If no bubbles, or very few, pop up, it’s not hot enough.
