  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 50 ml olive oil

    4 jarred roasted red peppers, ½ cup almonds, ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, 2 large garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 tsp paprika, 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes, Flaky sea salt
  2. Blend until you have a smooth sauce that still has a bit of texture to it - you don’t want your sauce to be completely smooth here.
  3. Stir in the olive oil slowly until you have a velvety dip.
    50 ml olive oil
  4. Taste and season accordingly - you might want to add a little more sea salt or a dash more red wine vinegar.
