Feta cream

Puree the feta with all the other ingredients up to and including the pepper, set aside.

To bread the olives

Place the flour and egg in two deep dishes. Place the panko breadcrumbs in another deep dish along with all the other ingredients up to and including the chilli flakes, mix. Drain the olives, toss them in the flour, then in the egg and finally in the breadcrumbs, pressing firmly on the crumb coating. For an extra crunch, apply the crumb coating to the olives a second time.

To deep-fry

Fill a pot to ⅓ with oil and heat it to approx. 180 °C. Lower the olives into the oil in batches using a slotted spoon, deep-fry for approx. 1 min. Remove, drain on kitchen paper. Plate up the olives with the feta cream.

Good to know
Tip: Instead of walnuts, you can also use chopped pistachios.
Tip: I used olives stuffed with pepper. But you can also use ones with almonds or garlic, or plain olives.
Tip: Serve a handful of cherry tomatoes and red onion rings with the olives.
