Some frying tips for food:
– Clean the pan before use:
One of the most important things to prevent food from sticking to the pan is to make sure the pan is clean.
– Dry the food:
Water on the surface of the food is the main cause of oil splattering when it hits the hot oil. Additionally, water makes it harder for the food to achieve a crispy golden crust.
So, before frying, let the food dry or use a clean towel to pat the food dry. You can also coat the food with a thin layer of flour, cornstarch, or batter. This helps absorb moisture and prevents oil splattering, while also giving the food a crispy coating and preventing it from sticking to the pan.
– Heat the pan:
Before adding food, heat the pan and oil. You can check if the oil is hot enough by dipping the tip of a chopstick into the oil. If small bubbles form, the oil is hot enough.
– Use a deep pan:
When frying, it’s advisable to choose a deep pan. This is an effective way to prevent oil from splattering.
– Add flour to the pan:
Before frying, you can add a little flour to the oil and stir. The flour helps prevent oil splattering during frying and also reduces the chances of food sticking to the bottom of the pan. If you don’t have flour, you can use cornstarch or other types of flour as alternatives.
