Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large peppers Roasted red peppers
- 200 grams Feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
If the roasted red peppers are not store-bought, roast them at 220°C (428°F) in the oven until the skins are charred and the peppers are soft. After cooling, peel off the skins and remove the seeds.
In a food processor, add the roasted red peppers, feta cheese, Greek yogurt, garlic, and fresh lemon juice.
Process the mixture until smooth and creamy.
While the processor is running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the dip and enhance its texture.
Add the paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Blend again to combine evenly.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning, if needed, according to your preference.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle with a little extra olive oil if desired. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley, a sprinkle of paprika, or crumbled feta.
Serve with pita bread, vegetable sticks, crackers, or as a spread on sandwiches.
