AGEs on the meat, probably - if you let it brown - but for a 2-min
frying time, I'm not too worried about trans fats. I don't know how
long the reaction takes, but when people have tested commercial chip
fryer oil where it's been reused over and over again, it was still a
comparatively low percentage of trans fats.
