We prefer roasted red peppers from a jar as they have a really sweet, intense flavour. But, if you wanted to roast your red peppers in the oven then you can just place them on an oven tray and spray with low calorie cooking spray. Cook at 150°C-180° for 30 minutes or so.
The smoked paprika gives this Red Pepper Hummus-Style Dip a really tangy flavour, but it’s entirely optional and you can always leave it out if you’d prefer!
Serve this Red Pepper Hummus-Style Dip with crudités, rice crackers or even on a slice of toast!

We prefer the intense, sweet flavour of the roasted red peppers that you get from a jar, just make sure that you pick up the ones in brine or vinegar and definitely not in oil.
You’ll be able to find these jars of peppers in most supermarkets.
