Ingredients:

Serving

2 large red bell peppers
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp red pepper paste
3/4 cup fresh bread crumbs, toasted
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and ground
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp pomegranate syrup/molasses
1 tbsp yogurt
1-2 tsp cumin seeds, toasted and coarsely ground
salt to taste
1/4 cup olive oil
to make pomegranate molasses
bring to boil 1 quart pomegranate juice (such as pom wonderful), 2/3 cup sugar, 2/3 cup lemon juice and simmer on low until reduced to 1-1/3 cups.
or even easier: simmer any quantity of pomegranate juice on low heat until it is reduced and thick enough to coat a spoon.

Directions:

Roast the peppers over a gas flame or under the broiler, turning until blackened and blistered all over. Place in a bag for 10 minutes to loosen the skins. Slit the peppers open and remove the membranes, stems and seeds. Skin and allow to drain.
Meanwhile, combine the walnuts, bread crumbs, onion, and garlic in a food processor and process until finely ground.
Add the bell peppers, lemon juice, olive oil, and pomegranate syrup/ molasses and blend until creamy.
Add the cumin and chili paste to taste, adjust the seasoning, and scrape into a 2-cup storage jar. Chill
When ready to serve, allow the dip to come to room temperature
Decorate with ground cumin and a drizzle of olive oil.
