"It's Muhamarah, Jen(ny), but not as we know it" - Amanda
I had this first in London and it blew my mind. I went to make it myself, not remembering what it was called. So, I made it (up) and it's delicious. It's not muharah, though...
"Muhamandy for Jenny" is it's new name.
This makes enough for a dip for a few people
4 x sweet peppers
6 cloves of garlic (or less if you like)
A nice whack of sumac.
Toss some olive oil over the peppers and garlic, sprinkle in sumac (about 2 teaspoons but I never check) rock salt.
(chili flake or fresh chilli if you like but I prefer it without the spicy spice)
Low and slow in the oven until the garlic is really soft - then add a load of pine nuts to toast or if easier, toast pine nuts on frying pan (no oil) and fling them in.
CAUTION - they burn like me. Quick and easy.
Lash it all in a blender, add fresh lemon juice (half a lemon) Blend again.
HORSE it into you with your preferred conduit (pitta, crisps, breadstick)
I love you, Jenny.
