INGREDIENTS

  • 3 ½ cups (525g) Fine Flour (Farina)
  • 1 cup (200g) fine semolina
  • 1 cup (230ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ cups (375ml) orange juice
  • 1 can (330ml) sparkling soda or orange soda
  • 2 cups (240g) finely chopped black olives
  • 1 cup (120g) finely chopped green olives
  • 3 teaspoons (24g) baking powder
  • 1 cup (150g) finely chopped dry onion
  • 1 tablespoon (5g) dried spearmint
  • 1 ½ cups (75g) fresh chopped coriander (cilantro)

For the topping

  • 2 tablespoons (25g) sesame seeds

METHOD

  1. In a bowl, mix all the ingredients for the olive bread. Flour and grease a 26 cm round baking pan and pour the olive bread mixture into it.
  2. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 50-55 minutes or until nicely browned.
  3. To check if our olive bread is done, insert a wooden skewer into the center of the cake; if it comes out dry, it's ready.
