[printer friendly version]

You can make and refrigerate this dish up to a week ahead of time. The flavors improve as the olives marinate. Use a mortar and pestle, meat mallet or rolling pin to crush the coriander seeds and rosemary.

Ingredients:

24 large unpitted Spanish olives
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons coriander seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
fresh rosemary sprigs (optional)

Combine the first 8 ingredients in a bowl. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.

Serve at room temperature. Garnish with rosemary sprigs, if desired.
