​

Ingredients (serves 6-7) 

• 5 Red Peppers

• 2 Garlic cloves, crushed

• 5 tablespoons of extra virgin Olive oil

• 200 g of Seeds

• Salt and Pepper, to taste

• 2 tablespoon of Basil leaves, chopped

​

Method

Pre-heat oven at 200°C. Slice the red peppers and remove the stems and seeds. Rub them in a little olive oil and roast for 20-25 mins.

After 10 mins, add the garlic.

Remove from oven and allow to cool.

In the meantime, toast the seeds in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for 8-10 mins, or until they are golden, and allow to cool.

Transfer the peppers to a food processor and pulse to break them down. Add the toasted seeds, olive oil and salt and pepper and blend until smooth, or keep it a bit lumpy.

Pour the lot into a bowl, season to taste and stir in the basil leaves.

Add some chia seeds on top for extra goodness if wanted
