Ingredients
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 2 tbsp fresh oregano
- 2 tbsp fresh mint
- 1 tsp pepper paste
- 1 tsp tomato paste
- ¼ cup kalamata olives chopped
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 1 tsp sumac
- 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses
- 1 lemon Zest of
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, pour in ½ cup of extra virgin olive oil. Then, add the minced garlic and give it a good stir to combine.
- Add fresh oregano and fresh mint to the bowl. Next, add pepper paste and tomato paste.
- Stir in the chopped kalamata olives. Season with salt, pepper and sumac.
- Add in the pomegranate molasses and lemon zest. Then, stir everything together until well combined.
- If time allows, the mixture sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle a bit more olive oil on top if desired. Serve with crusty bread of your choice.
Notes
- Infuse the Oil: For an even more flavorful dip, consider gently heating the olive oil with the minced garlic over low heat for a few minutes before mixing with the other ingredients. Make sure the garlic doesn’t burn.
- Chilling Option: If you prefer a slightly thicker dip, refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes before serving.
- Adjust Seasonings: Taste the dip before serving and adjust the salt, pepper, and lemon zest as needed to suit your taste preferences.
