  • These delicious deep fried olives are a holiday must-have in Marche, central Italy. They're called 'olive all'ascolana' and Anna shares her recipe. They form part of a platter of deep fried mixed meats and veg (and custard, a throw back to the Roman origins of this dish). The olives are the most popular and people have their favourite butchers who make them for the Christmas and Easter holidays. If you want to have a go yourself, you'll need big green fleshy olives. Gordal olives (from Spain) are a good swap because you are unlikely to find the local variety called 'oliva tenera ascolana' outside Ascoli Piceno.
    You'll need a kilo or so.
    For the filling: 700g braising steak, 200g pork, 100g chicken breast, 3 eggs, 100g parmigiano cheese, celery stick, 1/2 onion, carrot, lemon zest, nutmeg white pepper.
    beaten eggs, flour and breadcrumbs for coating the olives
    sunflower oil for frying

    On a recent visit to Italy I had a vegetarian version of Olive Ascolane. The filling was made with mushroom, nuts and I think also some ground olive. My cousin declared them even better than the originals.

      Yes indeed , this is the original version and for me ( and most of the local people ) the very top , but there are other stuffings , in the area of San Benedetto del Tronto you may find seafood stuffing , in Ascoli even with truffles , and recently I tried in a restaurant a vegetarian version very good .
      Ciao from.le Marche , Merry Christmas

    That yellow you see at 5:40 is the deep fried custards , an essential part of “fritto misto all’ascolana” we call them cremini or crema fritta , a curiosity : in Italy olive fritte all’ascolana is widely known but the deep fried custard always puzzles people from other parts of Italy , they usually ask wether is a dessert or a starter but indeed the custard can be any of it and obviously the main course because of the original preparation, to me even more interesting than the olives .
    Grazie Vicky for showing a wonderful dish of le Marche , buone feste 🎉

      Sweet Semolino chunks, along with apple slices and even plums, are also present in the Fritto misto piemontese, all served together with the salty and meaty stuff.

    I’ve made deep fried olives as a treat for myself for years. I put them on charcuterie boards, on salad, as sides for sandwiches, and just on their own. I’m the only one who likes olives in my family so I get to enjoy all of them. I’m not complaining.

      Italian cuisine, as we often see on this channel, always has great surprises ! But it must be said that these here in Italy are a great specialty. They originate in a certain region, but they are really famous throughout Italy, unlike certain specialties that are perhaps known only in a certain region.
