Abstract

Mass transfer kinetics of moisture outflow and oil uptake during deep fat frying of snack food prepared from a blend of chickpea flour and modified starch have been investigated. The effect of frying temperature and pre-fry drying has also been studied. The results indicated that an increase in the temperature of frying (150–2001C) causedan increase in mass transfer coefficient for moisture (0.045–0.096 s�1) as well as for oil (0.056–0.082 s�1). Pre-fry drying also had a significant effect on the deep fat frying. As the pre-fry drying time was increased (0–90 min) before frying at 1751C, it resultedin a decrease in kinetic coefficient for moisture transfer (0.056–0.039 s�1) as well as in kinetic coefficient for oil transfer (0.063–0.035 s�1). Basedon the kinetics andsensory data, the optimum pre-fry drying and frying times were 40 min and 45 s, respectively, which resulted in 54% reduction in the oil content of the friedprod uct, without compromising on the sensory quality characteristics.
