SLICER and FRYER recommendations please

[Guest guest]

Please help.

We're frying beet slices. The cuisinart that I borrowed can't get them

thin enough and makes them too small so its like coleslaw sort of. I

bought a mandolin that also looks like it will not get them thin enough

and will be a lot of work to use. Another fellow mom told me to look

for a ham slicer. What experience does anyone have with slicers other

than the cuisinart? The only way I have been able to the chips thin

enough is to meticulously slice the beets by hand.

Also is there some sort of fry pot that might work better than my cast

iron skillet? Something that maybe has a basket that is made to fit

into it?

Please help. I am spending so much time frying beets.

Since Elaine prompted me to get a Cusinart Food processor I find it the

most useful of all

appliances for SCD and it comes in a small size too.
