I've gone from Presto's bulkier Cool Daddy fryer, to the more simple Presto Fry Daddy. I used them both mainly for fried chicken drumettes with the best success, over frying fish and larger pieces of chicken.
I'll get to the point. Can those larger square counter top fryers accommodate a rack where I can fold a taco tortilla, put the cooked taco meat in, put it in the rack and sink it into the oil? That's how fast food places do it. I do alright slow cooking the taco meat, but I just don't like...or don't want to...hassle with frying up the taco shells in a skillet of oil. Some can do that well. I find it a messy hassle. Having a rack like fast food places use would make it easier.
Are most counter top fryers too small for such a procedure? Do they make such a rack for counter top fryers? I'm trying to evolve beyond making ground beef gringo tacos, altho...they aren't that bad.
