Happy Saturday guys! Recipe of the day is Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Dip Muhammara – delicious combination of sweet red peppers, walnuts and spices.
Muhammara is traditionally made with Aleppo chilli flakes where it originates from. The ones I used were different but I think worked fine. Make sure to use pomegranate molases though, it does make a difference. You can usually find it in most of the big supermarkets.
If you haven’t tried Muhammara before, wait no more – this yummy dip has already become one of my favs and it is so simple to make!
What you need:
- red peppers
- walnuts
