If your food is excessively greasy, it may be due to various factors. Firstly, make sure that the food is properly drained on a wire rack or absorbent paper after frying to remove excess oil. Additionally, avoid overloading the fryer basket, which can result in food taking longer to cook and absorbing more oil. Lastly, ensure that the oil is at the recommended temperature and not too cold, as this can cause food to soak up oil rather than creating a crispy texture.
