Can this product do a waffle cut with potatoes for fries?

My Instructions say in order to create the "Lattice or Waffle" cut, you cut first with the wavy blade, then turn food item 90 dgreesand cut again.

No- though it could do something like a wavy potato chip, and you could adjust the thickness to be cloSer to a fry- however, the straight blade is really the best blade and other cuts can be messy/disappointing

I'm sorry to say it does not do a real waffle cut potatoes. It does do a fine cut ripple cut and you do a half turn on potato making a ripple effect instead of a smooth potato slice which I use for fried potatoes and the slices do not stick together like the smoth cut. vera

Yes but you will have to chop the cauliflower into chunks first to fit into the processor

Absolutely... I would recommend mixing it with the hot water before adding it to the casserole so that you don't get lumps..I usually buy the potatoes au gratin box (any brand) as the "base", then I slice up potatoes that I have pre-cooked (at least partially) and add a bit of additional milk to cover all of the potatoes... as an extra flavor I sometimes add cut up brocolli florets and sometimes cut up red, green, yellow and orange bell peppers and of course onions too... YUM...

We have four adults in the house and my wife usually makes two batches of fries and it is more than enough. I think it would depend on what you are cooking.

Only if you want very thin matchstick type fries. I haven't actually used sweet potatoes but with regular white potatoes I cut them and they got smaller as they baked.

Yes.as long as they aren't wider that the cuting plate. A potato6 inches wide around by 6 7inches long each should do just fine.

It has a matchstick size and french fry size strip cutter, so I think it can. It does not have a waffle cutter, if that is what you are thinking about.

Yes...I tried it for zucchini chips and they were so thin and light...but use the guard....I sliced my thumb...NOT fun! Remeber for the potatoes to be crisp the oil has to be really hot.

No, French Fries only. You can get a slicer attachment for your Kitchen Aid if you have one. Mine does a great job!

I believe at the answer would be no. I takes strength to cut the potato. We use it to cut jalapenos, onions and other smaller vegetables. Works fine for the smaller vegetables.

Absolutely ! Works great right out of the box - I was so excited to make potato pancakes that I didn't even think to wash the grater parts.Simple stated this is a great machine and well worth the investment.

I haven't made just one, but I don't see why not. (who can only eat one waffle <g>) just pour the batter onto the one side. The setting should be the same. Let us know how it works out for you.

Yes. I have made sweet potato fries several times. I microwaved the sweet potato for 1 minute 20 seconds and after trimming it to fit on the machine it worked great. Note: I did use the larger opening blade for the fries, have not tried the smaller ones on a sweet potato yet. I am saving the the trimmed portion of the sweet potatoes in a freezer bag and will use them to make mashed sweet potatoes.

I have used beef tallow to fry french fries and it worked just fine. Just make sure the tallow is rendered.

I have never cut any potatoes with mine but I think the answer would be no. It has 2 slicing blades but I think all they would do is slice it into something like a chip. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

You can, but just add your choice of cooking oil! I heat up the oil a little at first. Be careful to pat the potatoes dry before putting them in the pan with the oil so they won't splatter, and watch over them as you fry. I have the Presto Electric folding fryer, and I have fried breaded chicken cutlets in oil, and they come out moist and delicious. I have also made French fries very successfully. Good luck!

This is going to be everything you need. If you think you might be doing a lot of fries, you might consider mounting this to the wall. If you mount to the wall, it will give you better leverage, you will be able to do fries faster and you can put a bucket underneath to cath the fries as you cut them. The push block will help get the end of the potato through the "knives". If you didn't have the block, you would end up with potato partially cut. I think you will love this thing, I know I do. I might also add, if you put a pinch of vinegar in the bucket with the cut fries and water. You will end up with better fries, the vinegar draws out the starch from the potatoes(so e people will use pickles in place of the vinegar...you might play around with it). Good luck and please feel free to email me if you have any questions. Billy
