How to measure 3/4 cup of vegetable oil

By weight (most accurate): set your bowl on a kitchen scale, press tare, and add 164 g of vegetable oil.

By volume: Use a 1/2-cup measure plus a 1/4-cup measure, or 12 tablespoons.

Oil is lighter than water, so a cup weighs less than 237 g. Olive oil (about 216 g per cup) and canola oil (about 218 g) weigh within a couple of grams of vegetable oil, so the figures here work for any of them.
