Time 15m

Yield 1 1/2 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups green olives, pitted and washed to remove salt
1/2 cup tahini (plain sesame paste)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
1 -2 tablespoon lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1 small tomatoes, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except the tomatoes and olive oil in a blender; blend until smooth. This may take a little while since the dip is pretty thick. Add a little more lemon juice to thin it out only slightly if you need to.
  • Place in a flat serving dish and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Then spread the tomato pieces on top,and drizzle with olive oil before serving.
  • Enjoy!
