Here is one of the Syrian recipes that I fell in love with and I had to share its deliciousness with the world! If you try it, please let me know how you find it too! I love to hear your comments and suggestions! It makes my days! Now enough about me and let’s talk about this recipe:
Ingredients
1/2 cup raw walnuts
1/4 cup bread crumps
3/4 cup mild pepper paste (this is a shortcut ingredient and it can be substituted by a jar of roasted red bell peppers or two large red bell peppers, roasted and peeled)
1/4 cup extra version olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (1/2 a lemon)
1 clove of garlic (minced)
2-3 tbsp tahini paste
2 tbsp pomegranate molasses
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika (not smoked paprika)
A dash of salt (or salt to taste)
For garnishing:
Fresh mint leaves
Walnuts (my husband added the walnuts 😂)
A drizzle of extra version olive oil
Important Notes:
🌶 The mild pepper paste shortcut ingredient can be substituted by two large roasted red bell peppers (there are also ready-made jars of those).
🌶 If you use the shortcut ingredient mild pepper paste, those jars already have salt, so add it to taste. I only added a dash of it.
🌶 You can make it spicier by adding some cayenne and, if you have available, Aleppo red pepper flakes.
🌶 You can eat this as a spread with barbecued red and chicken meat. Also, it can be used as a vegan dip, or it can even be eaten straight on pita bread!
🌶 You can find the mild pepper paste, the tahini paste and the pomegranate molasses in any middle eastern or arabic grocery stores!

Alkanater is the best tahina! I always buy it from the Lebanese shop. Thank you for the recipe!
Thank you for sharing. I can't wait to make this recipe looks absolutely delicious. I was just wondering is there any way I could substitute the pomegranate molasses with something else, just a little difficult to find. Thx
Thanks a lot for sharing! How can I substitude the pomegrate molases?
@noor cooks Lebanese is there a substitute for the bread crumb? Thanks
🌶️👏👏
When do Syrian people eat this? Is it a side dish, appetizer, snack or?
I do not get it why so many recipes used bread crumbs while the original recipe calls for Bulgur. Recently some people started using quinoa for those who can not tolerate gluten. By the way we always highly recommended soaking the walnuts overnight before using them in this recipe.
That looks delicious 😋
Is there any substitute for pomegranate Molasses?
Yesterday I heard about this ,I'm going to make right now.
I have everything. Thanks.
I just made it, delicious. Tanks again.
Yummy! Can’t wait to make it.
Just did it. My first muhammara! Not the last one! With fresh chargrilled peppers, self-made pomegranate molasses. Delicious — just tasted a bit, letting the flavours mix overnight. Thank you!
I just did it and it came out perfect, thanks
Traditionally you'd also want to grate in 1 small onion. Trustme the onion make a big difference in flavor and sonsistancy.
No la
