Ingredients
- 2 cups big, green olives see notes
- 1 cup Marcona almonds see notes
- ¾ cup olive oil
- Zest from 1 lemon
- 1 head garlic
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a small pot over medium heat. When the oil starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Continue to simmer the olives for 10 minutes, stirring the pot occasionally.
- Strain the olives and almonds through a fine mesh sieve. Reserve the oil to cook with or to serve as a dipping oil for some bread.
Notes
- Marcona almonds are not widely available and can be pricey. Blanched almonds make a good substitute in this recipe.
- We love using Gordal olives in this recipe. They are what you see in the pictures.
