The PARACITY 3L mini fryer is a non-electric, stove-top pot designed for oil immersion cooking. Constructed from SUS304 stainless steel, it features a wall thickness of approximately 0.8mm to 1.0mm, which provides good thermal conductivity. By eliminating electrical components, this pot offers a durable, dishwasher-safe alternative to electric fryers, though it requires the user to monitor temperatures manually.
The "Deep Pot" geometry is an engineering choice intended to reduce oil splatter and minimize the volume of oil required for effective frying. The handles are coated with a high-density silicone to help keep them cool during use. Specifications indicate that using the pot on medium settings—especially on induction hobs—will help maintain a stable thermal equilibrium for more consistent results.
The structural simplicity of this pot makes it a long-term tool for those who prefer using their existing stove-top controls for frying.
- SUS304 Stainless Steel provides high corrosion resistance.
- Dishwasher-safe construction simplifies post-cooking cleanup.
- Integrated basket and lid rack allow for immediate oil drainage.
Because the pot has a relatively thin base, adding a large amount of cold food can cause the oil temperature to drop quickly. Pairing this unit with an external digital thermometer is recommended for accuracy. The basket is designed to sit securely within the pot, though it may take some practice to seat it correctly while wearing oven mitts.
If you prefer the convenience of a built-in thermostat, the Chefman Fry Guy is an electric alternative with a similar capacity. Visit our mini countertop deep fryers section for more stove-top and electric models.
