Make sure he buys a heavy cooker. Heavy cookers are not the cheap ones. This is one kitchen gadget you don't skimp on.

I see no reason why you couldn't fry in a nice heavy pressure cooker. Just don't use the lid when frying. From what I understand, pressure cooking is exclusively the realm of water-based liquids.

And as Alton Brown says about pressure cookers: read the manual. Those things can be dangerous if not handled properly.
