This vibrant and flavorful dip is made with roasted red peppers, fiery chili peppers, tangy feta cheese, and fresh herbs. It's easy to make and packs a punch of flavor, making it a great addition to your snack or appetizer spread.

Ingredients:

1 red pepper
80g
3/4 cup feta cheese
170g
2 garlic cloves
6g
2 red hot chili peppers
80g
2 tbsp fresh parsley
10g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Wash and dry the red pepper and chili peppers.
- Place the red pepper and chili peppers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. Roast the Peppers:
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the skins are charred and blistered.
- Turn the peppers occasionally for even roasting.
4. Cool and Peel:
- Remove the roasted peppers from the oven and transfer them to a bowl.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a plate to let the peppers steam for about 10 minutes. This will make peeling the skins easier.
- Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skins and remove the seeds.
5. Blend the Ingredients:
- In a food processor or blender, add the peeled and deseeded peppers, feta cheese, garlic cloves, and fresh parsley.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
6. Adjust Seasoning:
- Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary. Depending on your preference, you might want a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance the flavors.
7. Serve:
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.

Tips:

- Roast the red pepper and chili peppers until the skins are charred and blackened to enhance the smoky flavor.

- Allow the roasted peppers to cool in a sealed container or plastic wrap; this makes peeling off the skins much easier.

- Blend the ingredients until smooth for a creamy dip, or pulse a few times for a chunkier texture if desired.

- Add salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lemon juice to taste if you want to adjust the seasoning after blending.

- Serve with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
