Muhammara
Sweet, sour, and warmly spiced, this spread is perfect for your mezze platter.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ⅓ cup bread crumbs (plain)
- ½ cup walnuts (toasted)
- 2 cloves garlic (peeled)
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1½ tablespoon pomegranate molasses
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 roasted red bell pepper (about 1 cup of pepper pieces from jarred roasted peppers, drained)
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. Process until mostly smooth, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides. Check the consistency (see notes) and add additional ingredients if needed.
Notes
Moisture content in the peppers can vary quite a bit. If the mixture seems dry once processed, add 2 tablespoon of olive oil and/or 2 tablespoon of water to bring it to the desired consistency. If it seems too wet, add 2 tablespoon additional breadcrumbs and/or 2 tablespoon walnuts.
