Marinated mixed olives with sundried tomatoes
Background
You can combine these marinated mixed olives with sundried tomatoes in less than 10 minutes - for the fraction of the price of mixed olives sold in delis and supermarkets. Serve them as nibbles with a glass of vino or add them to salads, pasta dishes, pizzas, pastry, scones, bread and so on. They keep well on the fridge for several weeks.

- 1 cup green pitted olives in brine

Instructions
- Drain the olives and but them in a bowl.
- Chop the garlic, celery and spring onion ( green parts too). Add these to the olives, together with the dried oregano.
- Cut the chilli in half, remove the seeds and the vein. Chop the flesh, add these to the olives (you can use half red bell pepper instead of chilli, if you don’t want it spicy).
- Add the vinegars and olive oil.
- Cut the sundried-tomatoes into small slices and add these to the olives.
- Season with salt and ground pepper.
- Mix well, then transfer the olives and marinade into a sterilised jar, then seal.
