Ingredients
- 4 red capsicums, halved and deseeded
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
- 2 teaspoons The Chia Co black chia seeds
- 1 small garlic clove, crushed
- ½ teaspoon harissa paste
- 1 teaspoon white chia seeds
- Vegetable crudités to serve
Instructions
- Place the capsicum halves, skin side up, on a baking tray and place under a hot grill. Cook for 10—12 minutes, until completely blackened.
- Meanwhile, toast the cumin seeds in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Transfer the charred peppers to a bowl and cover with cling-film. Leave until cool enough to handle. Remove the blackened skin off the peppers and place the flesh in a food processor with the cumin seeds, black chia seeds, the crushed garlic and harissa paste. Blend until smooth, and then season to taste.
- Serve sprinkled with the white chia seeds, with vegetable crudités for dipping.
