Safest oil for stir-frying

Stir-frying is a food hack that gets dinner on the table fast. But you want to do it safely. “When you’re going to turn your burner above medium, as is the case with stir-fry, high heat oils are the way to go,” says Morgan. “These oils are stable under higher temperatures — meaning they don’t get oxidized, smoke, and become rancid and potentially harmful.” Besides avocado oil, peanut oil, with a smoke point of 450 degrees F, is a great option here.
