ingredients

  • 1 garlic clove, peeled
  • 1/2 jar of Ortiz anchovies in olive oil, drained
IN STOCK
  • ½ lemon, juice only
  • 3 stems of oregano, leaves finely chopped
  • 3 tbsp Galmesan, finely grated
IN STOCK
  • 30 large pitted Gordal olives
IN STOCK
  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 500ml sunflower oil
  • Smoked garlic mayonnaise
IN STOCK
  • 1 tsp sweet smoked paprika
IN STOCK

Method:

  1. Place the garlic clove, anchovies and lemon juice in a pestle and mortar and crush to a paste. Stir through the oregano and cheese and spoon into a small piping bag. Fill each olive with the anchovy paste.
  2. Using one hand, roll the stuffed olives in the flour, dip them into the beaten egg, and transfer them to the breadcrumbs. Using the other hand, sprinkle the olive with breadcrumbs and place it on a plate. Repeat for the rest of the olives.
  3. Heat the sunflower oil to 180°C in a small saucepan. Add the olives and cook for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Carefully remove the olives from the oil and drain on kitchen paper before placing them in a serving dish. Serve with the garlic mayonnaise and smoked paprika.

Little tips:

Allow the olives to cool a little before eating.

As an alternative, stuff the olives with sobrasada.
