If you only are frying 2 large or 3 very small ones. The basket is so small, I threw it out. I was disgusted!!!

It is a deep fat fryer, 350 deg F max. Works well. So, why not, if that temp is recommended? I have not explored Indian recipes.

I don't make doughnuts, but I'm quite sure this would do it. It's got a bread mixer as well as regular beaters so I don't see why it wouldn't. After all if it can make bread it should certainly handle doughnuts.

Yes...We leave oil in the fryer and store (unless it's dirty of course). It's a great fryer!

You can use any kind of mix you want for your doughnuts, it doesn't depens on this donut maker machine. Good Luck!

Yes...I have used it for frying. After 5 mos of use, the coating started to bubble and flake off.

I love my deep fryer, it's big enough for my family and it cleans up nicely. It's the best.

I've used it to braise meats, but have never fried food in it before. Sorry.

I would think so. Mine gets very hot....hot enough to fry. I would suggest using a pan with a thick bottom so that the heat is more uniform.

Yes it can. There are several recipes out there for using Carbquick for frying. Just google "Carbquick for frying".

I don't think it should be used as a deep fryer. The coating is anodized, and I don't know if it would hurt it, but I think hot grease over a period of time might be detrimental.

I don't really know. I'm guessing this won't work but if you have another recipe you can use the nuts for, in case it doesn't make peanut butter, I'd say go for it. I do bet a good food processor might give you something akin to peanut butter, however.Perhaps there are attachments for this machine that will do that; just don't know.

I think it would work fine for one of the thinner batters, such as for making funnel cake. The times I've made donuts, they were more of a dough that you roll out and cut. I think it would take a special device to drop out donut dough.

Yes . It works great for items that a meant to be fried but cooks with any need for oil and taste good.. I try this with French fries and taste great without the oil.. Works great on chicken, Pork chops, mozzarella sticks and chicken tenders.

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.

I would think you could use it for that. The pan is sturdy and not lightweight and deep enough to fry without having the oil too close to the surface. Obviously not for a large batch. I will say I haven't tried it. Otherwise those who have used it for this purpose can probably answer more accurately.

Hello, yes It can be used for just about any deep fried foods. Well worth the money.
