You need a long thermometer that will read accurately in the 300 to 400 degree range. Don't let the tip of the thermometer touch the bottom of the kettle , if you do you will be way off on the oil temp.You will be doing the frying at 350 to 375 for most oils so that's where you need it accurate. Don't use a glass one. Get a metal one.
I think its pretty dangerous to try to do it without a thermometer.
