For the roasted garlic and lemon
- 1
Pre heat the oven to 160C (fan).

For the dip
- 1
While the garlic and lemon are roasting. Quarter the peppers, remove the seeds and lay in a single layer skin side up on a tray. Grill the peppers until the skins have blackened, while they are still hot put them into a lidded container to sweat as they cool.

Once the garlic is soft and golden, remove it from the oven along with the lemon and set aside to cool, ensuring you retain the oil.

Lightly toast the cumin and coriander seeds in a dry pan to release their aroma then grind in a pestle and mortar until it is fairly fine.
- 4
Peel the garlic and dispose of the skins along with the thyme. Add the roasted garlic to the pestle and mortar with its roasting oil and continue grinding to making a paste.
- 5
Combine the garlic paste to the breadcrumbs along with the chilli powder, pomegranate molasses and the juice of the roasted lemon, stir well and set aside.
- 6
Remove and dispose of the pepper skins. Finely chop the pepper to an even mince and add this to the breadcrumb mix.

Next finely chop the walnuts and stir in.

Season the muhammara to taste with salt and pepper, you may want to add a little more pomegranate molasses or chilli at this point.
