Which is a low-oil cooking method?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Steaming
Steaming cooks food using hot water vapour and generally requires little or no added oil. It can help preserve the natural flavour and some nutrients while avoiding the high fat and energy content produced by deep frying. Boiling, baking, grilling, and pressure cooking can also be low-oil methods when excessive fat is not added. Repeatedly reheating oil should be avoided.
