sunflower oil
You can substitute any other kind of oil (olive, canola, etc.) Oil is oil, they all do the same things.





The only difference will be the taste of the oil, so make sure you are o.k. with the taste of whatever oil you choose!





Hope this helps :)
olive or canola oil are both good choices
The healthiest is unrefined coconut oil.
in using oils there are a lot of things to consider, health, flavor smoking point and such.





in regards to health olive oil is the best, then followed by the unsaturated oils like, canola, sunflower, corn oils.then theres saturated oils, like palm, coconut and soy oils. then theres the fat, oils that are solid in room temp and it can certainly kill you like lard, butter and margarine.





in deepfrying the thing you need to look for is the smoking point. peanut oil is best, cause it has the highest smoking point, and olive oil is the least because of its very low smoking point and you will be wasting your money.





then theres flavor, for pastries and cakes butter, sesame oil for oriental foods, in terms of flavor each each oil is unique
olive oil...its sooo much healthier!
if you want a healthier oil for deep frying you can use canola oil or safflower oil. If your into sauteing or you need oil for salad dressing, olive oil is the best choice. Olive oil is considered the healthiest and have lots of nutritional benefits. Happy cooking.....
