Innovative frying oil â??Spil Innova Fryoilâ? which contain antioxidant, emulsifier and antipolymerizing additive constituents was developed and the quality profiles of improved frying oil and fried food products with above-mentioned oil was evaluated. The physicochemical quality, sensory quality profile, gas chromatography (GC) fatty acid profile, total polar compound, oxidative stability (rancimate) and overall fried food quality of new oil and fried food were performed. It was determined that the total polar compound levels of Spil Innova Fryoil were stable between 1-15th (even 10th-15th) frying process. Linoleic acid (C18:2; omega-6) was preserved and no trans-acid increasing was found by repetitive frying; no increased amount of trans-oleic acid (elaidic acid) and trans-linoleic acid. It was observed that the used Jujube extract additive gave more stability to innovative frying oil; polar compounds of fried potato oils by 5th, 10th, 15th frying process and also the fried potato color was stable after repetitive frying.
