Ingredients
- 3 red bell peppers
- 1 c walnuts you may use Pecans instead
- 1 large yellow onion minced
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 chili peppers seeded and diced, see Note 1
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- 2 tablespoon pomegranate juice
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ c breadcrumbs you may substitute with GF breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar you may replace with coconut sugar
- 4 tablespoon olive oil
- salt, pepper to a taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Place bell peppers on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Remove peppers from the oven and place them in a bowl covered with a lid for 10 minutes. Peel off the blackened skin, remove the seeds and discard any liquid.
- Add walnuts to a large pan and toast on a medium heat stirring occasionally for 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- In the same pan heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add onion and saute for 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. If at any moment the onion starts to stick to the pan, you can add another tablespoon of oil.
- In a bowl of food processor add bell peppers, toasted walnuts, chili peppers, cumin, pomegranate and lemon juice, breadcrumbs, sugar, sauteed onion, garlic and the remaining 2 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with ½ teaspoon of salt and blend until mixture is smooth. Taste the seasoning and add more salt or pepper if you like.
- Serve with some tortilla chips or crackers.
Notes
- Note 1
- If you don't like very spicy appetizers, start with only 1 Chili pepper. If the dip is still not spicy to your liking, add some more.
