This is another “jump at the cupboard door” nibble, which can be extended into a starter.

Some form of food processor, even a mini one, greatly helps but a pestle and mortar works. For an even simpler but similar bite, see my Egg & Anchovy Light Nibble.

Steps

20-25 minutes including prep

1

Hard-boil the eggs, peel and slice.
2

Toast two slices of bread and cut in halves.

Meanwhile make the tapenade. Whizz or mash up the olives, then add all the other ingredients except the olive oil and four anchovy fillets. Continue mixing, then add the oil a little at a time. Add sufficient just to get a thick paste then stop.
4

Spread the tapenade between the four pieces of toast, add a layer of egg slices to each piece and finally drape one of the remaining anchovy fillets over each piece. Enjoy.
