Advantages: Healthy -proven fact, tasty, lives up boring dishes

Disadvantages: fairly expensive

Olive oil, is the absolute must for all kitchens. Regular and extra virgin, they all give that something extra to a dish.

Forget all those expensive salad dressings, just chop, wash and place salad in bowl(make sure there are plenty of juicy tomatos and red onions), sprinkle generously with salt, then with a generous helping of oregano, then add lashings of olive oil(not virgin-this is best used in soups and casseroles), mix together then taste, add more of each if reqiured. Voila, a wonderfull greek salad, add feta to garnish.

Also it is a wonderfull accompanyment to mash, gives it a different twang.

I think olive oil is misuderstood, and used incorrectly, for example as i warned earlier, extra vigin is not a good accomanyment to salads, but ideal for rich soups and casseroles. However i must say that if you are the type that goes away on hol and eats english food, then forget it and stick to fish and chips. Those who are more health and food conscious, and are olive virgins, go on, give it a try - you won't be dissapointed!!
