List of 5 recipes using Black olives (lactose free)

Salade Niçoise

Salade Niçoise is a typical Mediterranean dish that originated around the French city of Nice. As there is no real "official" recipe, everyone has their own personal version. This is mine.

Pissaladière with puff pastry

This savoury tart is a traditional speciality around Nice, on France's Cote d'Azur. Originally, pissaladière had much in common with its Italian cousin, the pizza, but made with onions, anchovies and olives, and without tomatoes. This is a slightly different version, more friable (with a puff-pastry base) and using tomatoes.

Two-olive ciabatta

Enjoy the real flavour and scent of the Mediterranean in this ciabatta made with two olives (green and black).

Tomato ladybirds

Tomatoes filled with a tuna mayonnaise and rice mixture, in a fun ladybird shape that kids will love, served with a puree of fresh garden peas. A good way to encourage them to eat vegetables.

Tapenade

Tapenade is a classic of Mediterranean cuisine, basically a purée of black olives and olive oil. This version is little more sophisticated, with a less marked olive flavour.
