Ingredients

250 gram feta stuffed green olives

1 cup plain flour

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 cup dry breadcrumbs

oil, for deep frying

Method

1.Place olives in a plastic bag with flour and shake well to coat.

2.Dust off excess flour and dip olives in egg, then roll in breadcrumbs. Chill for 15 minutes.

3.Heat oil in a deep saucepan until a small piece of bread sizzles immediately when it is added.

4.Deep-fry olives, in batches, for 1-2 minutes, until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.

5.Skewer with toothpicks and serve warm.

Chilling after coating allows the breadcrumbs to stick better.
