This creamy blend can be made with bits of what’s in the pantry or fridge – left overs from a party or BBQ.
If using barbecued capsicum/eggplant/zucchini – will add a lovely smokey flavour.
Some or all of these ingredients blended will make a delicious paste for many uses.
- oven dried tomatoes*
- olives*
- preserved eggplant
- preserved artichokes
- grilled capsicum/eggplant/zucchini
- herbs (fresh basil or oregano etc)
- garlic *depends on tomatoes/olives etc
