    You want to deep-fry but you don’t have a deep-fryer? No worries! You can deep-fry at home using a pot! Make sure you read this post carefully to prevent oil spills or worse.

    How to Deep-Fry in a pot

    Reading: how to deep fry in a pot

    It took me such a long time before I finally worked up the courage to deep fry at home. Hot oil is scary – and for a good reason! It can be really dangerous if you don’t know what you are doing. So with this post, I want to help you take away the fear of deep-frying at home in a pot.

    Let’s face it. Most of us don’t have a deep-fryer. And that’s okay! You can deep-fry in a pot too!

    Things to know about Deep-Frying in a pot:

    • Type of oil: Use oil with a high smoke point (e.g. canola oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil or soybean oil are good options)
    • Pot size: The smaller the pot, the less oil you will need. I always use the smallest pot possible for my soon-to-be-fried goods.
    • Oil amount: Fill just enough oil so that the food you want to fry can swim in the oil. Don’t fill the pot more than to 1/3-1/2 with oil to give it enough room. When frying the oil will rise, so you don’t it to spill over. Worst case!
    • Oil temperature: The ideal temperature for the oil would be 375°F/190°C. Use a deep-fry thermometer if you have one. If not, stick the end of a wooden spoon into the oil, if it sizzles around the stick, it’s hot enough. The oil should never smoke, if it does, reduce the heat.
    • Preparing the food: Make sure the foods you want to fry are patted dry. Water and oil are not a good idea.
    • Lowering the food into the oil: Make sure you carefully lower the food into the oil with a slotted deep fry spoon or tongs to prevent hot oil splashes!
    • Frying times: Smaller foods will take less time to fry. If you notice that foods brown too quickly but they are not done in the middle, then lower the oil temperature. Never walk away from the pot when you fry.
    • Removing excess oil: Transfer the fried goods onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
    • Save the oil: No need to toss out the oil after frying! Let it cool off completely. Then strain the oil to remove solid bits and transfer into a container to use it several times over.
