4 – Ingredient Tomato And Olive Dip

This 4- ingredient tomato and olive dip is delicious, super easy  and quick to make! Made with oil packed tomatoes, black olives, olive oil and garlic. Makes a great crowd pleaser!

My mum in law recently celebrated her 60th birthday. So before we went out for dinner, we had some drinks and few snacks at their home. One of the appetizers that I just couldn’t stop eating was Tapenade.

Tapenade is a French dip or spread normally made with olives, anchovies and capers. This recipe however uses dried tomatoes packed in oil instead anchovies and capers.

Here is what I love about this tomato – olive dip/ spread (Tomato Tapenade):

• it’s made with a handful of ingredients.
• it’s ready in less than 5 minutes
• it makes a great starter or appetizer at any party.

What you’ll need to make tomato and olive  spread

• 300 g (10.6 oz) oil packed dried tomatoes, drained
• 200 g (7 oz) black olives, pitted
• 1 garlic clove
• Freshly ground pepper and chili to taste
• 5 tablespoons olive oil

How to make tomato tapenade

Making tomato tapenade is super easy and quicker than you think. All you have to do is peel and mince garlic, then combine all the ingredients in a jar and blend.

Season with freshly ground pepper and chili and done. Serve your tomato tapenade with Turkish Flatbread or Rosemary Focaccia.

If you’re not eating the dip immediately, you can store it in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.
