Executive Chef
I bet I'm the only regular member here who has never "deep fried" anything, and I've been cooking all my life. I wasn't raised with deep fried foods so I guess I've never seen the need. Once in a while I enjoy deep fried fish and chips (hold the chips), but I order it out. I just don't care for French Fries. Shallow frying (like for chicken) with some oil in a skillet is fine with me.
What foods do the rest of you regularly deep fry?
Fish - I've done cod, catfish, tilapia - they all work okay for fish 'n chips. When we lived in the islands, I did grouper, mutton snapper, hogfish.
Shrimp, breaded and fried (I grew up on that back in the 50's when it was as cheap as hamburger, before shrimp drew a premium price), and I've done tempura too.
