A little while ago, I was raving about Jamie Oliver’s new book, Jamie at home, and I’ve been dying to try this recipe ever since!

It is one of the most heart-healthy oils and has been reported to reduce cholesterol levels, lower serum tryglyceride levels, and keep platelets from sticking together. Some UK farmers such as Hillfarm Oils have started to produce cold-pressed rapeseed oil as a versatile cooking oil and dressing, similar in use to olive oil.
