Soaked, toasted mixed nuts blended with sun-dried tomatoes, peppers in oil, garlic, capers, sage and vermouth.

Ingredients

  • 300 g nuts I used a mixture of different nuts
  • 6 sundried tomatoes in oil drained
  • 2 peppers in oil drained
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tsp capers minced
  • 1 tbsp dry vermouth
  • 1 tbsp sage leaves minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions

  • Soak the nuts in water overnight, then drain and pat dry.
  • Heat the oven to 200C.
  • Toast the nuts in the oven for 20 minutes, keeping an eye on them so they do not burn (or dry-toast in a pan for about 2 minutes until golden and nutty, then tip them out at once).
  • Let them cool.
  • Blend the nuts with all the other ingredients in a food processor until smooth.

Notes

Keeps in the fridge up to a week; the text says it can be frozen up to 3 months. Safety: contains raw garlic and oil-packed vegetables; keep refrigerated.
