Deep frying is a cooking method in which food is submerged in hot oil or fat. This is normally performed with a deep fryer or chip pan; industrially, a pressure fryer or vacuum fryer may be used. Deep frying is classified as a dry cooking method because no water is used. Due to the high temperature involved and the high heat conduction of oil, it cooks food extremely quickly.

[edit] About Deep Frying

This method or technique is very popular in the Fast Food industry. The food to be cooked must be fully submerged in hot fat. Good quality deep-fried foods can be characterized by an attractive golden brown color, crisp surface or coating and little fat absorption or moisture loss.

For best results foods such as chicken should first be breaded or dipped in batter before frying. This coating protects the food as it cooks and results in a nice crispness, golden color and flavor.
