Hi there, the healthiest oil is a blend of rice bran and safflower and can be used for deep as well as shallow frying. Other oils to consider are:
Sunflower oil for shallow and deep frying
Extra virgin olive oil for putting over salads or use as dressing
Olive oil for shallow frying
100 % rice bran oil for shallow and deep frying
Next Steps
Keep shifting different oils from the above for different purposes
