Method

  1. Char the peppers over a flame or roast them until soft; the flavour runs deeper this way.

  2. Peel them and remove the stems, seeds and ribs. Pound or blend the peppers to a purée.

  3. Set aside a pinch of walnuts and a little olive oil for serving. Add everything else to the purée and stir until thick and smooth. For a finer texture, pass it through a sieve.

  4. Spread on a plate, scatter the walnuts and drizzle with the olive oil. Serve cold or at room temperature.
