  • 1 tsp chipotle chili
  • 2 tbsp canola oil or peanut oil
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Grilled paprikas are usually bought in glass jars. Add all ingredients in a blender and blend well. If you want more heat, add more chipotle chili. If you feel like it, add 1 crushed garlic clove, but it’s not necessary.
  • A note on the oil: avoid olive oil, it adds an undesired flavor. Use a neutral oil like canola oil or peanut oil.
