Tapenade

Intro

Another gorgeous recipe from my friend Kate, just perfect as part of an anti-pasto platter .... have I said before how my favourite way of entertaining is over wine or gin and nibbly things around a picnic table? You can half the recipe if the bowl of your food processor is small but I have to do it in these quantities to get it whizzing around properly. 

Recipe

Blend together in a food processor:

• 3 cups stoned black olives
• 3-4 cloves garlic
• 2/3rds cup pine nuts
• 450g anchovies
• 1 fresh red chilli
• 1 cup parsley
• 1 cup olive oil

Store in fridge - keeps for up to a week. Caution: this is very yummy but eating too much of it in one setting might do funny things to your tummy.
