Shallow frying is the cooking of food in a small quantity of pre-heated fat or oil in a shallow pan or on a flat surface (griddle plate).

Es stimmt also.

Wobei ich an Deiner Stelle nur von "Fett" schreiben würde, denn Öl ist nichts anderes.

Es bedeutet lediglich "in die Pfanne braten" statt "in der Fritöse braten".

Your fellow English speakers seem to think different; see my link.

Shallow-frying steht im Gegensatz zu deep-frying, in der Pfanne braten im Gegensatz zu frittieren.

Vielen lieben Dank

Super

Thanks Carola!

@Werner: Why do you think that?

It says:

Shallow Frying

Yes, without any reference to deep frying. That's why your "statt in der Fritteuse braten" is superfluous.

No, "in der Pfanne statt in der Fritteuse braten" means that it is shallow frying, rather than deep-fat frying. Why is that superfluous?

Have a nice weekend!
