Despite having it for years, I haven't really adapted to having a food processor. As in, it doesn't occur to me that some of the things I never make would be ridiculously easy since I have one. Muhammara is one of those things which I *love* when I get at restaurants, but it never occurred to me to make at home. And is ridiculously easy to make when one has a food processor. The basic recipe goes like this:
1.5 cups of walnuts
3 saltines (or bread crumbs or a bit of pita)
.5 tsp salt
.5 tsp ground cumin
grind in food processor for a while. add:
1 jar of roasted red peppers, drained
2 Tbs of pomegranate molasses (I think I'll up this next time, because I love it)
1 Tbs lemon juice
1 Tbs olive oil
continue to run food processor until the texture is no longer gritty, but don't over process.
It is OK right out of the processor, but best after sitting the fridge for at least a day. This plus pita, olives, and a salad is an awesome dinner.
