It is a myth that you should not use olive oil for frying, in fact it is the best oil to use due to its high polyphenols that stick to the food you are frying, in addition the smoking point of Olive oil is 190°C, 10°C higher than other oils, what is most amazing however about cooking with olive oil is that your food has this amazingly rich olive oil flavour and golden colour, these fried mullets are the ultimate example.
