- 100 gram black olives I have used Kalamata olives in this recipe.
- 2 tablespoon capers
- 2 anchovies
- 1/2 clove garlic
- 4 sprigs thyme fresh
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
Chop the olives roughly. Add capers, anchovies, garlic, and thyme and continue chopping until you have a somewhat chunky paste.
Transfer to a pestle and mortar. Pound everything together while adding olive oil in small batches.
Or, you can run everything in a food processor, if you are lazy.
Add some lemon juice and perhaps some black pepper.
