Nori, caper and sesame olive oil dip

Dips and dressings Summer
Serves 6-8
Prep 5 min
Cook 5 min

Capers and nori don’t seem like obvious companions, but together they make something deeply savoury and briny and morish. It comes together in under ten minutes and works well beyond bread: spoon it over steamed edamame, grilled fish, a tomato salad or oyster mushrooms.

Ingredients

2 tbsp sesame seeds  
120ml extra virgin olive oil 
2 tbsp nonpareil capers 
10g chives, finely chopped  
3 tbsp nori sprinkles  
1½ tsp mirin
1 tsp rice wine vinegar 
Fine sea salt  

Method

  1. Toast the sesame seeds in a frying pan on medium heat until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the olive oil, capers, chives and nori and cook for 2 minutes longer, then remove from the heat. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes, then add the mirin, vinegar and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
