Ingredients :

• 1 jar (350g) whole or sliced green olives (drained)


• 1 tbsp capers (drained)


• 1 large garlic clove


• 1 tbsp olive oil


• 1 to 2 tbsp flat-leaf parsley


• ¼ tsp red chilli flakes


• ½ tablespoon lemon juice

Serves : 4

Cooks In : 5 min

Difficulty : Easy

Preparation Method :

1. Place the olives, capers, garlic clove, olive oil, flat-parsley, red chilli flakes and lemon juice into a food processor and pulse 8 to 10 times, until it turns into a chunky tapenade.

Tips :

Drain the olives and capers thoroughly, and dry the parsley well after rinsing. This will prevent a soggy Tapenade. If you like your Tapenade smoother and less chunky, pulse a few more times until you achieve the right consistency. You can add more olive oil if the mixture becomes too dry. Give this spread another layer of flavour and texture by adding pine nuts into the mix! You can also use other herbs that you like. Basil, mint, and cilantro are good options.
