Sig's Scallion and Olive Salad

I have eaten a very similar recipe when on holiday. This comes close to what I ate.

Ingredient

Food ration :

4 servings

Cooking time :

25 mins

250

to 300 grams best green olives in oil ( I used Queen Olives)

4 medium

garlic cloves, the fresher the better

good handful of pomegranate seed

2 1/2 tsp

to 4 teaspoon of best olive oil ( you can use the oil from the olives in oil)

1 1/4 tsp

of freshly cracked ground pepper

1 pinch

of salt or salt substitute to season to taste

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

This dish takes about 25 minutes to prepare. I chill it for 1 to 2 hours

* Step 2

Make sure you use best pitted green olives, cut or pull them apart, put into a bowl. If I can't get pitted olives I have a large pebble (sterilised for kitchen purpose) I use to squash them , it makes it easy to remove the stone. I have seen it done this way abroad.

* Step 3

Roughly chop the nuts , I either use pecan or walnuts but you can use a different variety.

* Step 4

Chop the scallions and the garlic

* Step 5

Chop the coriander and the parsley

* Step 6

Empty a pomegranate of its seeds, ensure that there is none of the membrane amingst the seeds, discard the housing. Use a good handful. Set rest aside for garnish.
