Yay, its fry-day!

Disclaimer: Before you proceed reading, just know that this story is all about going ‘rogue’ on your diet! Because a lot of good things in life either have chocolate in them or are fried!!!

Fried foods are something one can never get enough of!  Garma garam kachoris, samosas and pakode, definitely top the list of favourite foods and let’s just be honest about the fact that we all crave for these once in a while. Although, this lot is quite badnam for being an unhealthy one (you were warned before!), still, it’s absolutely ok to indulge in these once in a while. There’s absolutely no harm if you know what to do to deal with those extra calories!

Thus, this guide (majorly for deep-frying!) will make it all easy for you to get going on your frying feels, in the best possible way.

1. You have to choose the right oil, generally, the one with a neutral flavour is preferred.
2. Make sure you heat the oil for frying at just the right temperature; neither too hot, nor to cold.
3. When you are soaking something in water before frying, make sure you completely drain off the excess water from it.
4. Make sure you are not frying too many pieces at once. If you overcrowd the pan, the temperature of the pan is not maintained which results in the ingredients being half-cooked. 
5. The best technique to check the oil temperature is to take a small testing portion and drop it in the oil, if the batter comes up immediately that means the oil is heated and if not then it needs to be hotter.
6. You have to make sure that whatever you’re frying is  properly crumbed  and dipped in a slurry nicely.  Also, dust off the excess crumbs from the food so that it does not disintegrate in the pan.
7. When you have to fry more than just one batch, make sure you keep clearing the oil.
