  • 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 5 g chopped parsley
Add the softened butter and olive oil to a large bowl, grate in the garlic and add the parsley.
Whisk until well mixed with no lumps.
  • 120 g Manchego cheese
  • 120 g Swiss cheese
Finely shred the Manchego and Swiss cheeses.
  • 55 g sliced green olives
  • 60 g black sliced olives
Add the shredded cheeses, green olives and black olives to the butter and oil mixture.
  • sea salt
  • freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 whole baguette
Season with a kiss of sea salt and black pepper and mix until well combined.
Cut the baguette in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the innards to make a shallow well.
Hollowing and stuffing the baguette
  • grated cheese
Fill each half with the olive and cheese mixture, spreading it evenly, and top with a kiss of grated cheese.
Set the stuffed halves on a parchment-lined baking pan and bake at 175C, which is 350F, for 15 to 20 minutes until the bread is golden and crusty and the cheese is melted through.
  • chopped chives
Rest at room temperature a few minutes to cool slightly, then top with chopped chives.
