Filippo Berio Sunflower Oil 5l

Description

Filippo Berio Sunflower Oil is a light, neutral-flavoured cooking oil with a high smoke point that makes it the practical workhorse of the African kitchen. Ideal for deep frying puff puff, akara, chin chin, fried fish, and plantain — as well as baking, sautéing, and everyday stovetop cooking where a clean, flavour-neutral oil is preferred. Its high smoke point means it handles the sustained high heat required for proper West African frying without burning or smoking prematurely.

This 5-litre bulk format is designed for households that fry regularly, caterers, and anyone who cooks in volume.
