Plant that produces a lot of vegetable oil?

Wondering about a source of vegetable oil for my goblins. Something that produces nuts, perhaps? An underground nut-bush? Or something that produces a lot of seeds, the same way dandelions do? Or could we get a plant which produces fat/oil, and the whole crop could be crushed for it (like fatty turnips)? It doesn't matter if the plant is useful for anything besides the oil.

The important part is the production of oil. While the plant is underground, there are magic crystals that give off sun-like light down there (to keep things simple).

Is an oil-heavy plant, an oily turnip, possible? What sort of characteristics might such a plant have?
