Ingredients

Method

  • For best results use the KitchenAid® Blender.
  • Preheat the oven too 200°C. Line a baking tray with a sheet of baking paper.
  • Place the whole capsicums over a medium gas flame (this can be done on the stove top or BBQ, see Tips).
  • Cook, turning regularly with tongs until the skin is blistered and charred.
  • Place the capsicum onto the tray and roast 30 minutes or until collapsed. While capsicums are still hot place into a plastic bag (using tongs), seal and set aside to steam for 10 minutes. Drain off and keep any juices from the baking paper. Discard the paper.
  • While the capsicum is steaming, place the almonds into the baking tray and roast for 7 minutes.
  • Remove the charred skin from the capsicum, using gloves if still too warm, and discard. Roughly tear the flesh into large strips discarding all the seeds and membrane.
  • Place the capsicum strips, reserved juice, almonds, chilli, lemon rind, spices, olive oil and sea and pepper into the blender jug.
  • Cover and select the symbol for puree. Pulse 5-10 seconds or to desired consistency (see Tips). Remove to a bowl and chill until ready to serve with a selection of veggie pieces and crusty bread.

Tips & Hints:

  • Makes 2 cups. If you don't have a gas flame you can place capsicum under a hot grill.
  • For a thicker consistency blend in some chunks of bread (crusts removed). This vegetarian recipe may contain dairy products and eggs and are therefore suitable for lacto-ovo-vegetarians only, who have adopted a vegetarian diet for health reasons
