In a dry pan, toast the sesame seeds on low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Toast until golden brown. Pour seeds onto a plate and allow to cool.

When the seeds have cooled, place seeds in your food processor. Blend until the seeds are a fine texture, then slowly add the olive oil to make a smooth paste.

Pour the paste into jar and store in the fridge for up to several weeks. Use in recipes calling for tahini (sesame paste).
