Background

Marinated olives can be so expensive in the supermarkets. Luckily it’s incredibly easy to make your own. These marinated olives with gherkins is a spicy version – leave out the chilli if you don’t like the heat.

Ingredients

1 jar green pitted olives in brine (300g)
1 red chilli
1 small red onion
2 cloves of garlic
½ red pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
Juice of 1 Lemon
4 Tbsp olive oil
2 gherkins
Ground peppercorn

Instructions

Drain the olives and but them in a bowl.
Cut the chilli in half, remove & discard the seeds, stem and veins. Chop the flesh, add these to the olives.
Finely chop the garlic, onion and red pepper, add these to the olives, together with the oregano.
Add the vinegar, lemon juice and olive oil.
Cut the gherkins into thin slices and add these to the olives. Season to taste with salt and ground peppercorn.
Mix well and transfer the olives and the marinade into a sterilized jar, then seal.
Marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Keep chilled after opening.
