I really want to try that chicken recipe.

I struggle with deep frying. On the one hand it seems such a waste of oil to tip it away. On the other, I worry about trans fats and acrylamide being more prevalent in recycled fats. Plus, I don't like the way deep frying makes the house smell.
I compromised by frying in a narrow pot, with minimal oil, and tipping it into the compost binwhen done.
This was the first time I deep fried anything in about 4 years. The struggle is real.
