Simple Muhammara

1. 1

   Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees

2. 2

   Slice red peppers vertically on all sides, resulting in 3-4 equal sized parts, discarding tops, ribs,and seeds.

3. 3

   Place red peppers onto a baking sheet lined with foil and drizzle with about two tablespoons olive oil. Season generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

4. 4

   Bake peppers in oven for about 30 minutes, or until blistered and charred.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, dry roast 1/2 cup walnuts on the stove at medium to medium high temperature, just until fragrant and slightly darkened. Reserve for later.

6. 6

   Once peppers have cooked, remove from oven and cover with foil. Let sit for 5-10 minutes to help remove skin. Then peel away skin to reveal tender flesh.

7. 7

   Place roasted peppers, walnuts, one clove garlic, spices, and half a handful of chopped parsley into a food processor. Process until smooth. Then check for seasonings. Red peppers will be sweet so make sure your dip is appropriately seasoned to balance out the sweetness. Sprinkle with remaining chopped parsley and serve with toasted pita, bread, or crackers.
