Summary: We present a mathematical model for the process of frying a rather thick sample of an indeformable porous material saturated with water (e.g. a potato slice). The model is based on thermodynamical arguments and results in an initial-boundary value problem for a system of equations satisfied by the temperature and vapour content, with a free boundary separating the region saturated with water and the vapour region. We prove some results of numerical simulations.
