Can this cooker be used as a pressure fryer ?

Yes, although I have never used it as such. It is advertised as being a pressure fryer. We use it a a pressure cooker. One thing though, we seem to have problems from time to time with it sealing. You need to make sure that the seal in the lid is clean and seated properly before each use. I think you can also buy replacement seals for it.

I only use it for frying. I have never thought about using it any other way, but I suppose it is possible. You probably should contact the company which manufacturers this product.

This fryer has the element right in the oil so no you can't do anything but fry in it. It's not like you could use it like a crockpot/slow cooker.

I don't think you can but if you want to cook chicken as a stew i do it with any meat and add water and vegetable, but to use the pressure cooking as a frying is not meant to be, you can't put boiling oil under pressure !!!!! you need to buy a frying pan design to hold plenty of boiling oil .

You can never deep fry in a pressure cooker, if that's what you mean (it is a fire hazard). You can saute the chicken in oil first, but then you must still cook it with at least one cup of any liquid except oil, such as stock or wine.

I see no way it could be used as a cooker. In the add I looked at it advertised as a heater, no mention of cooker. It is a great little heater, though, if this helps.

this pot might fit I use in my 6qt pressure cooker.I did look at a power cooker pot the one sold on the info commercial and it is a little squatty .So for that reason,it may not.Hate to be so wishy washey but just not real sure,because of the squatty size of the power cooker.You can always use it as a mixing bowl.I use it to mix my cookie dough,and cake mix.

I'm sorry but I am unable to answer your question as I do not have a pressure cooker. I purchased this to use in a pan to poach fish and have not used it yet. Good luck.

1 (one) liter - Relatively small and I've been advised by the manufacturer that it should not be used as a "pressure fryer" although that's why I bought it - pressure cooker, yes, but not pressure fryer.

Hi Michelle, This cooker can could be used as a normal stove top, pot, or crock pot (slow cooker) if it's lid is left off while cooking as this way the pot will not be pressurized. I must say I am extremely very happy with the Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker and would recommend it. Regards, Vince

YES But pressure cooker is a piece of junk. Burns on bottom. Hard to put lid on.

Yes, you can use the rack in a pressure cooker. the rack encounters heat in a crock pot. Pressure should not affect the rack. Do not see any reason for not using it.Jim BiggerstaFF360 387 2697

Sorry, I do not know. I used it only with a normal electric cooking plate. I cannot image anymore to prepare meal without Pressure Cooker.The description mentions the possibility to use induction stoves ("Suitable for all stovetops, including induction; 10-year limited warranty; dishwasher-safe except for pressure lid".

Heck no! Do you want it to explode while cooking? If you want a seal buy a pressure cooker instead.

I think this pressure cooker is not so good for cooking rice. She is very good but for cooking meats, vegetables, beans.
