Preheat the oven to approx. 250 °C. / Heat the grill.
Wash, halve and seed the peppers.
Roast the peppers at approx. 250 °C in the oven or on the grill / grill pan for approx. 10 minutes. Allow them to really catch fire. Then allow the peppers to cool briefly and lightly scrape off any burnt areas.
Peel the garlic.
Squeeze the lemon.
Roast the walnuts in a pan without oil for approx. 5 minutes and then chop coarsely.
Puree all ingredients with a blender until a cream is formed.
Leave the muhammara to infuse for about 15 minutes and then mix. (This does not apply if you are making a pesto ).
Tip: Depending on your taste, you can make the dip finer, creamier or coarser. For a coarser consistency, add the walnuts later and don't blend too much.If the dip is too runny, you can add more breadcrumbs - but wait 30 minutes until after the dip has set and then decide.
