There has been a lot of requests for advice by members of the forum present and past but the problem lies pretty much in the lack of response from the person asking it. In this case, I think "Yorky" or for that matter, any body giving it, deserves some form of feedback. It is this sort of silence that kills meaningful and well intended contribution

Hi Friends

Using olive oil in Asian cooking is not new, it is suggested that olive oil probably first made its way from Portugal around the Cape of Good Hope to the spice-rich Goa with Christian missionaries in 1510.

The splendid tasting Japanese tempura, an exquisite dish of seafood and
vegetables deep fried in batter, was introduced in the 16th century by the
Portugese. It was probably cooked in olive oil. Now as more Asians discover the health benefits of using olive oil, they are doing away with the traditional fats often associated with the cuisines of Asia.

In Australia, almost ¾ of the population regularly use a wok. Many have found that they can happily use the milderflavoured olive oil to make a healthy stir fry. Any type of olive oil can be used in place of other fats in most Asian recipes.

Thank you

Mohd,
Asians do not use traditional fats but refined vegetable oil and Japanese do not fry their tempura in olive oil either and as a matter of fact, olive oil is not in any way replacing traditional oil currently used in Asia so your facts are not quite in order.

We may use olive oil to drizzle on the occasional salad or spaghetti and thats that.

I think this thread has lost the plot a little. Mohammad thanks for the intersting information about olive all however, when Charles said:

He meant feedback from you on the reply Yorky gave you. It happens a lot that new members ask a question and never return to comment on the answers provided or thank the contributors. It can get very frustrating.
