We used to have one of those little fryers.  I think we gave it away
long before we were faced with down sizing.  Our problem was that we did
not use it very much and so the oil tended to get an off taste or even
rancid.

The only think I can now think of that needs to be fried in oil would be
crispy fried chicken.  Popeye's does a good job at that!

This could be a good alternative.
