Just did it. My first muhammara! Not the last one! With fresh chargrilled peppers, self-made pomegranate molasses (following as well your vid). Delicious --- just tasted a bit, letting the flavours mix overnight. Thank you!
I made this a few days ago and it was PERFECT! Thank you sooo much! I've always wanted to make Muhammara similar to that I have at restaurants. I can finally do that thanks to you! Love from Syria!
I went to a Lebanese bakery 3 weeks ago here in Brisbane, run by an Iraqi man and fell in love with it. I’ve been making my own with garlic, lemon juice, red pepper paste and sesame seeds like how he made it. I’ve been eating muhammara every day for 3 weeks now. I love it on flatbread with some BBQ chicken then bake it in the oven or microwave it then add sliced tomatoes, labneh and salad then eat it folded over.
Love this dip! I am addicted now. Expanding my repertoire of culinary tastes is so enjoyable. Forget the ordinary sour cream, spinach, and ranch dips -- and try these wonderful dishes from other countries!
Your muhammara recipes the best on net. I ve seen many, many , many recipes. I ve cooked few and result was so and so. But when I prepared your recipe it was very successful! Definitely, yours it's the very best. Thank you!
You can use muammarah in other dishes too. It makes a great pesto-like dressing for pasta dishes, you can use it to add flavor to tuna or egg salad, it works as a sandwich spread, and I’ve even used it in deviled eggs. It’s very versatile and delicious, and it’s so easy to make. I like your recipe the best, as the others I’ve tried were garlicky and hid the delicate walnut flavor.
Muhammara is one of our favourite dishes to serve to guests. I have never yet met anyone who had heard of it before eating it at our house, and everyone demands the recipe! Sometimes we make it with tahini but more often without.
After trying your amazing ta'ameya recently i am having a meze selection today with muhammara, taboule, mashed ful and halloumi :D thanks for your work! you got me motivated to get out of my comfort zone and try some new recipes. 🖤
I have tried a few of your recipes and am on a massive Middle Eastern kick. It is seems very Mediterranean, but with more of a savory aspect, it is also very nice as a lot of the dishes accommodate the hot climate in my state.
I am ridiculously excited for this. We haven't had it in over a decade since we moved away from a restaurant that had it on the regular menu. Thank you! We are definitely giving it a try this week. :)
@@MiddleEats The good thing/bad thing about your wonderful recipes is, once I've made your dishes, Obi, no restaurant can compare, so for the real treats, I have to cook it at home!
There's definitely quite a few variants out there from Turkish, to Lebanese and Syrian versions, each with their own twists. I'm sure you could even make your own version to suit your palette. Hope you enjoy it!
@@MiddleEats Also, you need a gold star for doing this even though you have a walnut allergy. Unbelievable dedication to spreading the word on delicious Middle Eats. 🌟
Excellent and exquisite taste of Syrian cuisine on a plate. It's a marvel and a true feast for my pallets, I ate a whole bowl all by my self. And I am not sorry at all! :D
Thank you! The video is wonderful, as always. I am recommending your wonderful channel to everyone I know. You bring such great attention to detail and are very professional in your presentation. Best wishes to you and your family!
Another awesome video, thanks guys! You've become my go-to source for all middle eastern recipes. I heard about this dish today, thought of your channel immediately. Lo and behold, you have a recipe video! Keep up the brilliant work.
I just follow your exact recipe and it was just perfect 😍❤ My friend was so impressed, because I'm a very bad cooker. But this one extremely easy. 🙏 thanks very much. For sure I'm gonna try other of you recipes...
4 роки тому+4
I've made this before, it's awesome! :) You can also roast the peppers in an air fryer
Yum! Thanks for the video, very clearly explained and easy to follow. I just have some pomegranate molasses leftover from Thanksgiving and I am a big pepper fan. I know exactly what to do now!
You really did get me into Middle Eastern cooking and I love it! I had a question though, what substitutes can you use if pomegranate molasses isn't available? Edit: nevermind I just saw your video on pomegranate molasses, so I'm making it myself. Thanks!
I wonder how it would taste with other nuts or seeds like sunflower or pumpkin seeds, or cashews? And without the tongue swelling? Thanks, this looks great!
My mother does it with parts hazelnts, parts almonds and parts cashews and the result is great too ! Also I really love sunflower seed so maybe I should try using some, thanks for the idea !
I'm sure actually any nut will work but maybe some will need extra olive oil to make the dip soft enough. Charlie's comments with cashews sounds amazing and I think he's right about the sunflower seeds. You'll have to try it and report back!
@@MiddleEats I'm relieved that there are variations you can make -- but also appreciate that you used walnuts on our behalf! I do understand loving foods we're allergic to.🥴
I made it just now. It taste so good, some alteration though as Walnut is very expensive here in Indonesia, I made it with cashew and could not find Aleppo pepper either.....
Lol im the same way with the dairy i shouldnt eat XD Thanks for the recipe! Ive only ever eaten this at a restuarant so im excited to try making it for myself :)
Ah dairy gets me too, I just love it too much! The great thing is you can customize it with your favourite spices, so more cumin, maybe coriander or even some cayenne pepper!
Oh Sweetie, I hope your wife took good care of you with that allergy. Food allergies are extremely dangerous. But thanks for taking one for your viewers, that looks delicious and I cannot wait to try making it, myself.
Yes Ahmed is correct, it's one of the more easily available Middle Eastern ingredients. If you can't find it however, you can make your own pomegranate molasses by reducing pomegranate juice until it thickens. You can also add sugar to balance it out.
It hadn't even occured to me, I guess it's just the way I've always seen peppers charred. Maybe when they are whole, they cook quicker, as heat would get trapped inside.
Also an important thing, if you open them, you run the risk of burning the inside if you aren't careful. And there is no skin inside which you can peel off easily
Man after my own heart! I’m allergic to acidic dark greens (spinach, parsley, etc) but when you need those special dishes I take the antihistamines and shoulder the hit. People need to understand that allergies aren’t all a risk of sudden death affair - I also get mild anaphylaxis like what Obis describing and it would be very unpleasant and alarming to have it all the time but it’s not necessarily the end of the world.
Pomegranate molasses has a sweet, sour and fruity flavour. I'd suggest making some yourself from pomegranate juice, if you can get it. I did a video for it a few weeks back and I show how to make/use it. Cranberry juice and molasses may work, but it would probably be better to do cranberry and sugar. It won't really taste the same though.
Pretty good. I added a jalapeño to the roasted veggies. I could do without the onion though. I'd definitely make again. I used pecans, my body likes them better.
The part about the walnut allergy is so real 😂😂😂
Absolutely, still worth it though. Especially in baklava!
@@MiddleEats No! Please do not risk your life!
I also got an allergy but when the nuts are toasted evenly it’s okay.
I subbed almonds and it works just fine. Pistachios would also work, but are more per oz.
Ferment walnuts in water for a day or three, the dehydrate. Should mitigate allergies.
OMG the walnut allergy line delivered with a smile is pure gold
Just did it. My first muhammara! Not the last one! With fresh chargrilled peppers, self-made pomegranate molasses (following as well your vid). Delicious --- just tasted a bit, letting the flavours mix overnight. Thank you!
Dude is so dedicated he literally puts himself in danger
Oh my God, I just made this, it is wonderful, my husband loves it. We're eating it with Pita toasties.
Another great video, and clear instructions... Muhammara, is an underrated middle eastern dish and this video serves it justice 😊👍
Thank you Hussam! Hope you give it a try.

Hi ! Do you know what substitute can I use for Pomegranate Molases ?
@@ESOTO86 there is none
This is the best video on muhamarra dip that I've seen. The recipe is detailed and quite easy for a kitchen noob like me to follow.
Your instructions are very clear and thorough. Rank beginners can follow them.
I'm headed to the supermarket now, gonna make this tonight. So excited! I could live off of muhammara but it's so hard to find here
Love your recipes! Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much, glad you like them!
Muhammara is my absolute favorite! Thanks for explaining it so well. Can't wait to try it
Hope it turns out good!
Delicious!! We have a Jordanian friend who introduced us to this delicious spread. My wife loves to make it for family gatherings.
It's perfect for gatherings, I'd serve it with toum and chilli sauce for the perfect trio.

We do not use bread crumb we use bulgar.
And for the walnuts we soak them in water for several hours or overnight with changing the water 2-3 times.
I have tried a few of your recipes and am on a massive Middle Eastern kick. It is seems very Mediterranean, but with more of a savory aspect, it is also very nice as a lot of the dishes accommodate the hot climate in my state.
Thanks, that's a good way to put it. The food is designed for the hot climate, but the winter dishes can warm anyone's soul. Thanks for trying them
Thanks for grilling technique!
I was fighting with pepers way more than 8min in my electric oven.
I’ve made this a few times and I love it. Thank you for demonstrating two ways to flavor it; both look great! 😍
No problem, hope you give this recipe a try!
I am ridiculously excited for this. We haven't had it in over a decade since we moved away from a restaurant that had it on the regular menu. Thank you! We are definitely giving it a try this week. :)
Aww, hopefully this is as good as the one you used to have. Let me know how it turns out!
@@MiddleEats We made it tonight and wow! I forgot how good this stuff was!! Thank you, again, for making this video! :)
So glad you enjoyed it, how did it compare to the one you used to eat? Did you make any changes?
@@MiddleEats The good thing/bad thing about your wonderful recipes is, once I've made your dishes, Obi, no restaurant can compare, so for the real treats, I have to cook it at home!
Awesome, that looks too delicious. I serve and eat roasted red peppers all the time, and you've given me yet another use for them.
Amazing, hope you enjoy this!
Thanks for risking your life to make this video. It looks great and is a great reason for me to make another batch of pomegranate molasses!
Ah no bother at all, twas but a scratch.
Made this Muhamara recipe for twice and my invitees always loved it! Thank you:)
How did it take me this long to find this channel? Well done!
As someone from Aleppo, try to sun dry your peppers instead of roasting them, as it gives a better flavor and texture
Made this and everyone loved it .. very bold and well rounded flavour . I used a sweeter pepper 🌶 and it still turned out well
I made, the result is perfect...Thanks.. People used to put tomato paste as well in Turkey, I prefer this one, much better.
Oh damn I see your sub count has gone way up. Nice work. Keep it up man :D
Thank you, it's been quite the crazy few weeks. I'm super thankful to everyone who has subscribed and watched the videos.
I tried your recipe this evening. It was so so good. Thank you for a great recipe. 5 Stars for the taste!!!
Thanks
Thank you!! This looks great, I can't wait to try making it. I have been looking for this recipe for over 10 years and couldn't figure it out.

A wet towel is the best way to take pepper skin off without making a huge mess

I've seen this recipe before but haven't tried it yet. I'm sure my family will love it!

Can't wait to make this. Love all of your videos. I hope your ok after after the walnuts.
Thank you Cindy! I was fine, the walnuts aren't too big of an issue for me these days.
Someone get this man a Tommy Hilfiger sponsorship, look at what he endures to bring us flavor 🙇🏾
Hahahaha not gonna lie, I'd love that. Their cotton is just sublime. I'd happily eat kilogrammes of walnuts for a sponsorship.
This whole exchange just made me smile hahahaha
Obie, you deserve it, mate ^_^
Love your channel . I make this all the time and is one of my favorite dishes . I will try your rendition next time !
Worth eating despite allergy. Thats the best marketing Ive ever heard.
This has been on my to-make list for a while! I definitely need to do it. Looks delicious.
Amazing, I hope you give it a try!
Delicious. Thank you for sharing.
I just watched the SATC movie and wanted to make this. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe ❤
Another great video! I tried this for the first time whole in Turkey and have been looking for an excuse to make it!
Thank you, now you've got a great recipe to try it out with! Hope you enjoy it.
Just made this, 🤩 yum. I did cut the pomegranate molasses to two tablespoons as the brand I have is extra sour otherwise followed all other steps.
Can't wait to try this recipe out. Awesome videos and recipes!!!
Thank you, hope you enjoy it!
I just follow your exact recipe and it was just perfect 😍❤
My friend was so impressed, because I'm a very bad cooker.
But this one extremely easy.
🙏 thanks very much.
For sure I'm gonna try other of you recipes...
I've made this before, it's awesome! :) You can also roast the peppers in an air fryer
Thanks, and great idea. Will they char up well in an air fryer?
@@MiddleEats yes, absolutely, the skin was almost black, I did everything else like you :)
@@MiddleEats an air fryer is essentially a small convection oven, so I can definitely see it work
An excellent recipe, thank you! I happen to have fresh picked walnuts, yum!!
Just made this for dinner with my family and it was amazing! Thank you for sharing these awesome recipes!
Can't wait to try this amazing recipe!!!
please make Jordanian mansaf
Yum! Thanks for the video, very clearly explained and easy to follow. I just have some pomegranate molasses leftover from Thanksgiving and I am a big pepper fan. I know exactly what to do now!

alergic too but I am all about walnuts ! Ifind whend they are cooked/ roasted (i go for a nice brown color in oven) they are harmless
My second favorite Arabic dip after Hummus.
Thank you I made it, it's delicious!!!
Your channel is amazing. Every single recipe I’m like 😋😋😋😋😋
Excellent.
Thank you for sharing it.
Good luck
niiice! i love it, always have some in the fridge
It's even better the next day as the flavor develops!
Very Very well explained, thank you
This is my favorite food. Ever.
Love this dish so much!

if you're allergic to walnuts use hazelnuts or pine nuts... it will still taste great!
Can you substitute jarred roasted red peppers if you're in a hurry?
Awesome I love this dip
Thanks! Hope you try it out
Do you remove the skins for a smoother texture? I would think you would get better char flavour by leaving them on. Looks great!
This looks so good! I look forward to making this for myself. I'm not sure where to find Pomegranate molasses.
Any middle eastern store/grocer/international market should carry it, at least in the states. Or amazon 🤷🏻♂️
Yes Ahmed is correct, it's one of the more easily available Middle Eastern ingredients. If you can't find it however, you can make your own pomegranate molasses by reducing pomegranate juice until it thickens. You can also add sugar to balance it out.
Thank you both for the help! I'm excited to try this for myself.
Good luck!
Wonderful channel, subscribed
I just made this and it slaps. !ممتاز
Is there a reason for leaving the core and seeds until after broiling them? Seems like they're easier to take out beforehand. Just curious...

pomegranate molasses, sumac... never heard of these ingredients before
Is there a good substitute for pomegranate molasses? Can you use molasses + cranberry juice reduced to a syrup?

Pretty good. I added a jalapeño to the roasted veggies. I could do without the onion though. I'd definitely make again. I used pecans, my body likes them better.
does your NHS cover the cost of EpiPens? nuts are everywhere, hope you have one for emergencies
