Tunisia’s olive-oil-rich cuisine inspires this recipe, in which green olives are lightly browned in an air fryer and then left to marinate in a spiced vinegar mixture. This step slightly wrinkles the olive skins and helps the seasonings penetrate.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Air-fry the olives

10 min

Arrange the dried olives in the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes, until their skins are slightly wrinkled.

2

Prepare the spiced mixture

5 min

Mix the garlic cloves, cumin, red pepper flakes, and lemon zest with the olive oil.

3

Put the olives in a jar

5 min

Combine the cooked olives in a jar with the vinegar and spiced olive oil.

4

Let them marinate

1440 min

Close the lid and refrigerate for at least 1 day so the seasonings can penetrate the olives.

Reminder

Dry the olives thoroughly before putting them in the air fryer; any water left on them may splatter during cooking.
