Cooking with Groundnut Oil

Why Groundnut Oil Is a Perfect Choice for Daily Cooking

By Punit Kanzariya 08 Oct, 2025 6 min read

Groundnut oil is one of the most loved cooking oils in Indian kitchens. Its rich taste, high smoke point, and incredible health benefits make it a top choice for daily meals. Whether you're frying, sautéing, making tadka, or deep-frying snacks — groundnut oil performs exceptionally well.

1. High Smoke Point (Perfect for Frying)

Groundnut oil has a smoke point of up to 450°F (232°C), which means it does not burn quickly. This makes it ideal for:
✔ Pakoras ✔ Pooris ✔ Dhokla tadka ✔ Samosas ✔ Bhajiya

Because it stays stable at high heat, it does not release harmful toxins like some refined oils.

2. Enhances Natural Food Taste

Pure groundnut oil adds a mild, nutty aroma that enhances the flavor of dishes without overpowering them. Gujarati, South Indian, and Marathi cuisines especially benefit from its natural richness.

3. Packed with Heart-Healthy Fats

Groundnut oil contains monounsaturated fats — the same healthy fats found in olive oil. These help:
✔ Reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) ✔ Improve HDL (good cholesterol) ✔ Support a healthy heart

4. Rich in Antioxidants & Vitamin E

Vitamin E helps protect the body from oxidative stress and inflammation. It also supports:
✔ Glowing skin ✔ Strong immunity ✔ Better hair health

5. Excellent for Deep Frying & Reuse

Because groundnut oil remains stable even at high temperatures, it can be reused safely 2–3 times. (Unlike refined oil which becomes toxic after one use)

6. Supports Better Digestion

Groundnut oil has anti-inflammatory properties which help keep the digestive system calm and healthy. Many households use it for its light and easy-to-digest nature.
