Want to make some healthier canapes and snacks for your festivities this Christmas? We've come up with an incredibly easy seaweed tapenade to use as a dip or a topping on blinis.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Shony®
- 250g green olives
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 3 shallots, finely chopped
- 3 tbsp capers
- 3 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 handful parsley
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Pepper to season
Method
- Gently fry the shallots in oil in a small pan until soft. Add the garlic and stir, then take off the heat.
- In a large dry frying pan, toast the sunflower seeds, then add the Shony® and toast for a further 4 minutes. It should give a rich nutty smell when toasted, before taking off the heat.
- Once cooled, add all the ingredients to a food processor and whizz until it combines into a chunky paste.
- Serve either as a dip, with wholemeal pitta bread, or make into a canape by cutting the pitta bread into triangles and put a dollop of the tapenade on top.
