Will the chips have the same texture when fried?Olive oil for frying chips?
Olive oil or extra virgin olive oil is not good for frying, because the dense the oil is the lower burning point has. Mostly the oil used is canola , soy ,peanut , and others, which are lighter oil but they can be used at higher temperature. If olive oil is used, you will found out that the potato chips will burn faster with out cooking the potatoes. If you like the olive oil flavor , my suggestion is to use a blend oil as 10% olive oil the rest is a vegetable oil as canola,or soy or other.

It is a very expensive way to fry chips. Once you get your olive oil to a high temp, it ruins the benefits of it. You might as well cook with a canola oil and save your olive oil for other things. No high temps for olive oil.
Olive oil is actually a better choice than vegetable oil--less saturated fat. Just realize that olive oils can add their flavor to whatever you're frying--taste the type of olive oil you want to use to judge how strong a flavor it will add. Texture won't change.
You can use olive oil for frying. However, it has a lower smoke point than vegetable oil does. This basically means that olive oil is going to ';burn'; faster and start to develop off flavors. Also olive oil has more of a flavor than your more neutral flavored vegetable oils. Lastly, olive oil is going to be more expensive.





Health wise it's not going to make a big difference. If you're frying properly (at the proper temp) your foods wont be absorbing very much oil.





I hope this helps!
No. I've tried it. It doesn't work right. It gets too hot, has an odd taste and doesn't give the same consistancy. Regular vegetable oil or shortning are the 2 best things to fry any kind of potato or vegie chip.
