INGREDIENTS
  

  • 10 pieces sun dried tomatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon pomegranate molasses
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon thyme

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Soak dried tomatoes in hot water for 10-15 minutes. This will help soften the dried tomatoes.
  • Chop the tomatoes well and transfer into a mixing bowl.
  • Mash the garlic and add that in the bowl.
  • Add in all the remaining ingredients and mix well. 
  • Either serve it as an appetizer or keep it in an airtight container or a jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

NOTES

  • You don’t need to soak the dried tomatoes if you are using sun dried tomatoes in oil in jars. They are already soft.
  • You can add cream cheese or Greek style yogurt in the mixture if you like. But then the storage time is shorter.
  • You can play with the spices in it to your liking.
