People love eating fried food because it tastes way better than regular boiled or baked food. But, we cannot have those fried delicacies every day at home.
What if you come to know that fried food can also be a healthy option? Yes, that’s possible because there are some simple tips and tricks you can try out to make fried food healthier than before.
Here are those incredible tips that you need to follow to prepare healthy fried food:
Choose healthy oil for cooking
When cooking, especially frying food, you must use healthy oils like olive oil or coconut oil because they help you to maintain a good cholesterol level.
Heat the oil well
Whatever oil you are going to use, heat it well to the right temperature to smoke out its harmful chemicals.
Make the batter perfect
Bad quality or wrongly prepared breading and batter can level up calories and promote oil absorption in your fried food. Too much flour taken to cover the fillings can lead to less tasty crust and also it absorbs more oil. We must use batters with baking soda or carbonated beverages to lower the absorption of oil while frying food.
Leave cooked fried food on paper towels
Leave fried food on paper towels for a few minutes to soak the maximum amount of excess oil.
Use a good quality fryer
Instead of conventional frying methods, you can use an air fryer to make quick-fried recipes at home in just a few minutes.
Max Star’s Smart Chef Air Fryer consumes minimal oil for frying, baking, and toasting. You can set it to different temperatures according to different air fryer recipes. It is equipped with a 2.5L basket to fry a good amount of food at a time.
Remember that greasy fried food is always considered a badly fried food, which is extremely bad for your health. So you must stick to the above-mentioned cooking tips when you are in the mood of preparing fried food.
