The friturier prepares fried foods. In larger kitchens, this person reports to the rôtisseur. Apart from restaurants that feature predominantly fried foods, the role of friturier is performed by the grillardin.
Deep-frying can include vegetables, fish, poultry and composed recipes such as meat croquettes or pommes dauphine, but this role is not fixed in a brigade.
