Key Points to Include:

  • Types of Cooking Oils: Explain the most popular oils (olive oil, sunflower oil, mustard oil, canola oil, coconut oil) and their benefits.

  • For example:

  • Fry the paneer: Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Dip each paneer cube into the batter and fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

  • Olive oil: Rich in monounsaturated fats, heart-healthy, ideal for dressing or light sautéing.

  • Coconut oil: High in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), beneficial for brain function and energy.

  • Mustard oil: Contains omega-3 fatty acids, ideal for Indian cooking, great for heart health.

  • Sunflower oil: High in vitamin E, good for frying due to its high smoke point.

  • Refined vs. Cold-Pressed: Discuss the difference between refined (processed) oils and cold-pressed oils, and how the latter retains more nutrients.

  • Selecting Oils Based on Health Goals

  • For heart health: Olive oil or avocado oil.

  • For weight loss: Coconut oil or mustard oil.

  • For skin health: Almond oil or flaxseed oil.

  • Storage Tips: How to store oils correctly (in a cool, dark place) to prevent oxidation.
