Have the lid to whatever pan/pot you are using in case things get a little out of hand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310453 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:48:34 +0000 Beyond2 1310453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not hard, don't worry! Keep kids back due to splatters and make sure your oil doesn't spill on the flame. Other than that it's all pretty easy. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310444 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:45:45 +0000 psw27 1310444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>keep any water away from the hot oil - even freshly washed hands that drip a drop into it can make it splatter like crazy and make sure its deep enough in the pan. Also, I agree keep your kids/dog away from stove and your feet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310353 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:16:58 +0000 BananaPancakes 1310353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Use peanut oil. Make sure it's hot enough, and drop a little batter in before the food to test how quickly it's going to brown. It's not hard, and honestly, it's difficult to make fried food taste terrible. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310318 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:08:52 +0000 matador84 1310318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use my Lecruset when I fry things...make sure the oil gets very, very hot and the kiddos are nowhere around (just in case).</p> <p>What are you frying up?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310311 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:07:37 +0000 Crystal 1310311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't stress, it's easy! Just make sure you have enough oil on hand and that you pay attention to the heat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310307 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:06:49 +0000 yoursilverlining 1310307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Use a deep pan, drop a little crumb of whatever you're making into the oil first to test if its hot enough, adjust heat as needed while cooking so the oil doesn't get too hot and just burn everything up; don't stand over the oil - it will splatter some and can burn! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310299 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:04:53 +0000 MrsH 1310299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Turn the fan on over the stove (frying stinks). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-fried-anything#post-1310284 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 14:03:00 +0000 HLK208 1310284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never fried anything because I've never needed to but DH has requested his favorite food for NYE which is fried.</p> <p>So I'm intimidated by frying food. I don't want my house to burst into flames. Does anyone have any tips? </p>
