Recipe's preparation

    Muhammara (Roast Capsicum and Walnut Dip)
  1. Preheat oven to 240 degrees.

     

  2. Quarter capsicums. Remove seeds and membrane and place skin side up on an oven tray lined with foil or baking paper.

    Add walnuts and blitz for 3 seconds, speed 7.

  8. With the motor still running and MC cap in, pour the olive oil into the lid.  Keep motor running for about 10 seconds after all oil has dripped through into bowl.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Great recipe.I upped the cumin to 1 teaspoon. I did not use chilli but used approx 3/4teaspoon of chilli salt. I have made this a few times now and have added a bit extra pomegranate molasses if it needed it. Great with fried cauliflower and other vegetables.
