Adjika – spicy dip by Yuliya
Ingredients:
- 3 kilos of tomatoes
- 1.5 kilos of sweet red peppers
- 250-500 grams of hot fresh red peppers - dry will take longer to bring out the hot flavour and hard to judge how much you need
- 200 grams of garlic
- 2 heaped tbs of dried coriander
- salt - amount dependent upon personal preference, just remember you need more salt to keep it longer
Instructions:
- Remove all of the seeds from the sweet and hot red peppers
- Remove the skins from the garlic
- Remove the skins from the tomatoes
- Crush the hot and sweet peppers and the tomatoes and garlics - mincer is the best thing for it!
- Add the dried coriander and salt (amount dependent upon personal preference)
CAUTION: Wear gloves to do this or your fingers and hands will burn from the capsaicin (heat producing chemical) contained in the peppers.
