Fried Feta Stuffed Olives

Inspired by Mediterranean flavors, these fried feta-stuffed olives are the kind of appetizer everyone gathers around.

Drain the olives well and pat them dry with kitchen paper.

Stuff each olive with a thin piece of feta.

In a bowl combine the flour with the oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Beat the egg in a second bowl and place the breadcrumbs into a third.

Coat each stuffed olive in the flour, then the beaten egg and finally the breadcrumbs until evenly coated.

Heat the oil in a small saucepan or deep frying pan over a medium-high heat. Once hot carefully fry the olives in batches (2-3 minutes), until golden brown and crispy.

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper before serving.
