A pot of hot oil that you dip meat into sounds downright

barbaric but it can also be heart healthy. Broth and hot oil

fondues are much less decadent than their siblings, cheese and

chocolate fondue but theyre just as tasty. If a little care is

taken when selecting ingredients and overeating is avoided, then

both broth and hot oil fondues can become a healthy meal.



Fondue Bourguignonne (also known as hot oil fondue) consists of

diners who cook their own food on long forks in a pot filled

with hot oil. The oil is heated in a fondue pot to about 325

degrees and guests spike cubes of meat and place them directly

into the hot oil. While waiting a minute or two for the meat to

cook and also to enjoy some wine and their company (the best

part of fondue) the cube is removed from the oil and ready to be

dunked into a variety of dipping sauces.



In order to make hot oil fondue healthier you need to start with

the oil. Peanut oil is low in saturated fat and cholesterol and

high in monounsaturated fat. This means that that just like

olive oil, peanut oil will improve the ratio of good

cholesterol to bad cholesterol. Next you will need to

use lean cuts of meat. Beef tenderloin, pork tenderloin and loin

of lamb are good but chicken or turkey breast are your best

bets. And keep the portions small. The general guideline is that

the portion should be about the size of your palm of your hand.



Dipping sauces can also be made healthier with ingredient

substitutions. Try using low sodium soy sauce or fat free sour

cream. Take a small dip and dont drown your food in the sauce.

Just say no to the barnaise or hollandaise sauce.



Broth fondues are similar to hot oil fondue except they are

cooked in broth instead of oil. The benefit of cooking in broth

is that it takes on the flavors of the ingredients dunked in it

and you can eat it. Often broth fondue (or Shabu Shabu) is

followed by a course of noodle or rice soup that is made with

the leftover broth.



Start your broth fondue with low sodium chicken or beef broth.

Like hot oil fondue you should use lean cuts of meat, small

portions and limit the use of dipping sauces. Broth fondues add

vegetables to the mix. Try adding mushrooms, green onions,

carrots and celery to the broth. Loading up on vegetables will

not only fill you but theyre healthy for you.



When running low on ingredients, add the remainder to the fondue

pot along with some noodles or rice. Let simmer for a few

minutes and serve this wonderfully flavored soup as an after

dinner treat to your guests.



Chocolate fondue is delicious but fattening. Cheese fondue is

not something you should eat every day. When dieting you should

probably skip them both and stick to broth and hot oil fondues.

If some care is taken while gathering ingredients, fondue can

become a healthy meal.
