الوصف: Deep-fried foods are generally popular world over. To cut production costs, the oil used is often recycled. This is concerning because deep-frying is done aerobically at 160–190 °C leading to oil degradation and formation of hazardous compounds. This study evaluated the quality of cooking oil used to deep-fry potato chips (n = 35) and fish (n = 35) by street food-vendors in Kampala, Uganda. Additionally, a safe oil recycling frequency was determined by separately deep-frying several batches of fish and potato chips. After each frying cycle, the quality of oil was analyzed. Over 94 % of oils used to deep-fry chips and fish obtained from food vendors surpassed the recommended specification for peroxide value (10 mEq O2/Kg). Their mean peroxide values were about four times higher than the recommendation. Moreover, none of these oils met the Thiobarbituric acid specification of
