Tip

Make sure all olives in the mix are pitted. Got a mix with whole sicilian olives recently and didn't realise they still had pits, made for a very crunchy (alebeit very tasty..) meal!

    Very delicious. I used anchovies instead of fish sauce and added 4 chillies. I also used an entire 700 ml bottle of passata as it would have been wasted in the fridge. Served over pasta... winner, winner, chicken dinner!

    Lovely flavour. I made the mistake of pureeing the sauce (as my husband doesn't like chunky sauce) and it turned out a very unappealing colour. I recommend following the recipe as is!
