We go through a LOT of dip in our house and so instead of buying super expensive (and tiny!) ones from the supermarket, we make our own homemade dips in the Thermie! Not only is it a much cheaper option, it also makes much bigger batches!

This Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip is super easy to make. The only time consuming bit is roasting the capsicum in the oven (but I usually try and do this while I've got the oven on cooking dinner anyway). If you're pressed for time, you can of course use store-bought roasted capsicums.

Then it's simply a matter of popping all of the ingredients into the Thermomix, mixing them altogether, and then sitting down with a nice glass of wine, some crackers and cheese. Bliss!!

Lets get started...!

Step 2 - Check The Consistency

Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

If you would like your dip smoother, mix it again for a few more seconds.

If you would like it less thick, add a little of the reserved chickpea liquid and mix through.

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Expert Tips

Roast the capsicum in an oven preheated to 200 degrees celsius (fan-forced) until soft and slightly charred. Alternatively, use store-bought jarred roasted capsicum (a great time saving option!).
Use olive oil OR use the oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes.
Reserve the drained chickpea liquid in case you'd like your dip so have a thinner texture.
Mix the ingredients longer for a smoother dip.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
