Tips for Frying, Roasting & Everyday Meals

Ever heard the myth that Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is just for salads? Let’s put that to rest.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is one of the most versatile and reliable oils you can use every day. From frying and roasting to finishing dishes, it enhances flavour while performing beautifully under heat.

Here’s how to get the most out of it in your kitchen.

Yes, you can absolutely fry with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. EVOO has a stable smoke point suitable for everyday frying and sautéing, making it ideal for eggs, vegetables, chicken, seafood and stir-fries.

Unlike neutral oils, it doesn’t just cook your food it adds flavour, depth and a subtle richness that elevates simple ingredients.

Roasting with olive oil helps crisp vegetables, lock in moisture and enhance natural caramelisation. Toss potatoes, pumpkin or seasonal vegetables generously before roasting to achieve golden edges and full flavour.

A good EVOO makes the difference between average roasted vegetables and exceptional ones.

This is where Extra Virgin Olive Oil truly shines. A finishing drizzle over salads, pasta, grilled meats, soups or fresh bread instantly adds depth and freshness.

The natural fruit notes and gentle finish of quality EVOO can transform even the simplest dish.
