Ingredients

  • 2 cups (16 oz/450 g) unpitted large green Spanish olives
  • 7 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • ½ medium lemon, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground fennel seeds
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin seeds
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon Spanish paprika
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. Lightly crush the olives with a mallet, or make slight slits on each olive with a knife, to ensure that the marinade permeates them.
  2. Place the olives in a sealable glass jar and add the remaining ingredients.
  3. Fill the jar with water and shake well.
  4. Marinate at room temperature for several days to a week.
  5. Serve the olives with toasted almonds and fresh bread.
