Groundnut [Peanut] Oil

Peanut oil, also known as groundnut oil or arachis oil, is a vegetable oil derived from peanuts.

The oil is rich in vitamin E and usually has a mild or neutral flavor but, if made with roasted peanuts, has a stronger peanut flavor and aroma.

Peanut oil is considered appropriate for deep frying, stir-frying, roasting and baking.
