This elegant vegetarian starter combines the tangy creaminess of fresh goat's cheese with a fragrant infusion of citrus and herbs. By gently warming the olives in extra-virgin olive oil with lemon zest and woody thyme, the flavours soften and meld together, creating a sophisticated topping that elevates a simple cheese medallion into a dinner party centrepiece.
Ideal as a light appetiser or part of a Mediterranean-inspired sharing platter, this dish is best served at room temperature to allow the full profile of the olive oil to shine. Pair it with crisp rosemary flatbreads or toasted sourdough for a satisfying crunch. It is a wonderful option for those seeking a quick yet impressive dish that celebrates high-quality, seasonal ingredients.
