Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups large green olives with pits, such as Cerignola (11 ounces)
2 cups large black olives with pits, such as Kalamata (11 ounces)
Zest of 1 orange, peeled in large strips
4 large garlic cloves, smashed
2 teaspoons whole fennel seeds
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup good olive oil
4 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Drain the green and black olives from the brine or oil that they're packed in and place them in a medium bowl. Add the orange zest, garlic, fennel seeds, thyme leaves, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Pour the olive oil over the mixture, add the thyme sprigs and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture, including the olive oil, to a medium (10-inch) sauté pan. Heat over medium heat until the oil begins to sizzle. Lower the heat and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the olives and garlic are heated through and fragrant. Serve warm right from the pan or transfer to a serving dish. Offer a small dish for the pits.

MARINATED GREEN OLIVES - CHAKISTES KIBRISLI STYLE



Marinated Green Olives - Chakistes Kibrisli Style image

My parents were taught as a child in Cyprus how to prepare their own olives, it's a long process but this is worth it. The raw green olives are split in half with a special stone but seed still intact, this allow the brine (salty water) to soak into the olives. The olives are then jarred with the brine and stored away for months. This recipe is not that process but it's the way it's marinated for Mezze's. Measurements are for personal preference only, you could use less lemon if you don't prefer it to be tangy. Enjoy

Number Of Ingredients 7

300 g green olives in brine
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 teaspoon fennel seed

1/2 preserved lemons or 1 lemon, zest of
olive oil, to cover

Steps:

  • Discard the flesh of the preserved lemon and rinse the skin to remove excess salt. Cut into fine strips (or zest the lemon - but the preserved lemon is so much better!).
  • drain the olives and give them a rinse off in water.
  • Place the olives in a clean jar and add the remaining ingredients. Cover with olive oil and leave to marinate.
  • I have left them as little as a couple of hours and up to a few weeks. Pop them in the fridge, but bring back to room temperature before serving.

GO-TO MARINATED OLIVES



Go-To Marinated Olives image

These olives get better with age, but the world will never know how good they can get since they don't last very long. I prepare all my olives this way. I mix them all up in a large jar and just pick out the ones I want for a particular recipe or just use a medley. They are stored in the refrigerator and the olive oil may harden; this does not affect flavor or quality. If you prefer your olives less oily, run under running water to rinse.
