Have you every heard of the method of cooking called frying?
Sure, but not usually with enough oil to pour out of the pan after cooking.
That depends on the dish - a Wiener Schnitzel for example should be able to move freely in the oil (because it should be kept moving while frying), or the breading will be pretty underwhelming. Same goes for most stuff with breading. I always try to be very conservative in my cooking oil usage, but in those cases it's just not an option.
Ooh that makes sense, and I want schnitzel now.
Do you make potato fries in a pan?
A lot of people do, actually. Seasoning them right for them to come out more "french fry" than "dried potato" is more involved than a lot of people might like, but I personally don't do it because I'm being picky about the flavor. I don't own a deep-frier and salted-dried-potatoes are good enough with a lot of entrees.
