I love to serve this dip with fresh crunchy celery, cucumber, and carrot sticks.

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees celcius 
  2. Line baking tray with baking paper and place capsicums onto tray
  3. Roast for 30-40 minutes or until the skin blackens and capsicums are soft
  4. Remove from the oven.  Place on a cool tray and cover with cling film allowing them to cool (the steam helps you remove the skins easier).  You should have 500g cooked weight.
  5. Remove skins from the capsicum.
  6. Combine capsicum with the walnuts, olive oil, pomegranate molasses, salt and pepper in a food blender/processor.
  7. Blend until smooth and creamy.
