Well let me answer that question – something we get almost 20 times daily any time we feature a video of us frying food on our Instagram account.
Short answer: we save it and continue using it until it is too dark or gets cloudy.
Here’s the scoop…
Our families have always deep fried foods since before we can even remember. Back in the day, there would be a designated “frying pot” where the oil would sit until someone needed to fry something – nowadays, in our own homes, here is what we do:
Let the oil cool completely.
Place a mesh strainer at the mouth of a large jar and pour the oil in there. You want the big bits to get caught so it doesn’t end up floating around in the jar. The reason you want to strain the oil is so when you reuse the oil, it doesn’t make the oil darker than it needs to be. It also helps keep the oil tasting fresher (in our opinion).
Close the jar and store at room temperature.
We reuse the oil until it becomes a brown color but that is completely up to you. The darker the oil, the darker your food will look after you fry it, so just adjust the amount of times you reuse based on the color and preference you have.
Now some additional questions we know y’all are going to have:
What kind of oil do you use? We like to use avocado oil because it is clean and has a high smoke point. Use what oil you can afford and are comfortable cooking with. Canola oil, peanut oil, and soybean oil are all oils we have fried with – they are just very processed.
How many times do you re-use oil? Depending on what we fry, it’s 5-6 times. If we fry fish, the oil is dunzo because the smell and taste will not go away.

New at Target! Does anyone else like to browse the aisles for new products on the regular? I feel like I’ve been doing that more than ever lately because quarantine had me in a little rut. David and I were at Target last week and picked these babies up – maybe they aren’t as new as I think but they are new to me and I haven’t really seen anyone else talk about these.
So here are some precursors to this review – I do not like Starbucks Egg Bites and I am not a huge fan of the 3 Petit Lechons Brand of sous vide bites from Aldi/Specialty Grocery Stores. Costco and Target also see the ThreeBridge Egg Cup bites but I don’t think they have much flavor.
I didn’t have high hopes before trying but the ham and swiss combo sounded good.
Here’s the run down:
These are $4.49 for a box of 4 omelet cups. The cups are the size of mini cupcakes and come two in a pack. One box is one serving, coming in at 2g total carbs for the entire box – which is not bad at all, however, the portion is tiny LOL. You win some, you lose some, right?
These can be found in the frozen food aisle, next to the frozen breakfast items. You can order it for pick up at your local store as well.
Prep:
The omelet cups are frozen and do not require thawing to cook. You just remove the plastic and then pop them in the microwave for a minute and a half and then let them sit for another minute.
This is one of my al time favorite potluck or party dishes because it’s so incredible easy to put together and make. It requiries 3 ingredients and just a little bit of your time. It’s sweet, salty, and sure to be a huge crowd pleaser.

If these don’t taste like those Taco Bell cinnamon twists, we don’t know what do. Our favorite pork rinds to work with are original flavor from Aldi or Mac’s brand. Enjoy!

Okay, here’s the dealio…we are obsessed with pockets. What is a pocket? It is a meal stuffed into a triangular pocket of deliciousness using flatbread strips and your filling of choice. We exclusively use our holy grail flatbread, Cutdacarb, because it’s easy to work with, takes on whatever flavor you season it with, and it fries up fast as hell. We rely on pocket-fying foods because it is a is a low carb hack to control your carb intake but also still get the satisfaction of eating your favorite foods.
The idea for pocket-fying things is based on our love of Hot Pockets (cue theme song) and the technique of folding a paper football or Greek Spanikopita (shout out to my grade school friend’s Yia Yia for showing us how to do this when we were 8 years old). The technique to fold is the same for all of these. See diagram below:
The pocket-fy process involves picking your filling of choice, adding it at the bottom of the flatbread strip, and using the folding technique shown above.
We deep fry 90% of our pockets in avocado oil. The rest are either pan fried in butter or baked in our toaster oven after being sprayed with avocado oil. Our Keto baes have used their air fryers as well.
Here is a bomb ass list of things you can pocket-fy to give you some meal inspo (we added links to the recipes we’ve posted and also suggestions for ones that may not be as obvious):
This one is a throwback to the days we all had to fend for ourselves before all of the keto-friendly products flooded the market. Most people use canned chicken but this one uses my least favorite part of rotisserie chicken – leftover white meat! I swear no matter what you try to do to make it juicy, it gets drier and drier by the second, which is why it’s the perfect “flour” for this zero carb pizza dough. You can use rotisserie chicken or any leftover skinless white meat chicken. The thinner you roll out the “dough” the crispier the crust will be.
2cupschicken breast(white meat, no skin, shredded – you can use canned chicken breast as well)
2eggs
1/3cupparmesan cheese(grated)
Instructions
Using cold white meat chicken, finely shred enough to make two cups. I used a hand mixer until it was super fine.
Mix the shredded chicken with the eggs and parm.
Spread the mixture onto parchment paper and place another piece of parchment paper over the mixture. Use a rolling pin or bottle of wine to roll the dough until it is thin. Mine was as thin as your standard thin crust pizza. The thinner you roll it, the crispier it will be.
Air fry or bake the dough at 400 degrees for 10 minutes (until golden), flip the crust, and finish baking it for another 10 minutes (until golden).
Add sauce, mozzarella, and toppings and baking for another five minutes until the topping is melted and to your liking.

If this isn’t a fridge/pantry cleanout meal – we don’t know what is. Fun fact: did you know Spam hails from Minnesota? Like many others, we grew up eating this on the regular with rice and eggs. This ketofied version swaps out rice for cauli-rice and still tastes just as good.
In a medium hot pan, add the 1 tbsp oil and whisked eggs. Scramble the eggs and remove them from the pan.
Add the second tablespoon of oil to the hot pan, cubed spam, green onions, garlic powder, and white onions. Saute until the onions are fragrant and spam starts to crisp up. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs back into the pan and mix in the cooked cauliflower rice. Add a dash of sweetener and soy sauce to taste. Stir fry until the ingredients are incorporated with one another.
Add black pepper and give the fried rice another stir.
If you prefer a drier cauli rice, continue stirring the fried rice on medium heat to let the moisture from the cauliflower rice evaporate.

This is my all-time favorite rib marinade for Vietnamese style ribs. Something to note about asian style ribs is they are not low and slow – they are rapid fire grilling so the meat will not be fall off the one – still delish though.
I used to eat these every weekend as a child while my parents and their friends would chill at the community park. Anyone else use those asian straw mats that were like 100 feet long??
