Food pieces are fried in an apparatus comprising a plurality of downwardly sloping straight channels, so arranged in zig-zag fashion that frying oil along with buoyant pieces of foodstuff transfer from the exit end of each channel in free fall to the inlet end of the succeeding channel, reversing direction at this point and turning over the pieces of foodstuff. The oil flows at shallow depth, and the apparatus has guides at the points of transfer to insure smooth flow of oil with minimum turbulence. |
