How to Make Acili Ezme Turkish Style Tomato Dip Condiment
- Finely chop 1 medium red onion. In a mortar and pestle (or using the back of a fork), gently crush the onion with 1 teaspoon of sumac and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until slightly softened.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed onion mixture with 2 pounds ripe tomatoes (or 2 (14.5 ounce) cans of diced tomatoes, drained), 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1-2 finely chopped red chili peppers (adjust to your spice preference), and 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional).
- Gently stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1-3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. The longer it sits, the better it tastes!
- Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Transfer to a beautiful serving bowl and serve with your favorite accompaniments: pita chips, toasted baguette slices, shish kebabs, or crudités.
